Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods are provided for producing naphtha boiling range fractions having a reduced or minimized amount of sulfur and an increased and/or desirable octane rating and suitable for incorporation into a naphtha fuel product. A naphtha boiling range feed can be separated to form a lower boiling portion and a higher boiling portion. The lower boiling portion, containing a substantial amount of olefins, can be exposed to an acidic catalyst without the need for providing added hydrogen in the reaction environment. Additionally, during the exposure of the lower boiling portion to the acidic catalyst, a stream of light olefins (such as C2-C4 olefins) can be introduced into the reaction environment. Adding such light olefins can enhance the C5+ yield and/or improve the removal of sulfur from thiophene and methyl-thiophene compounds in the naphtha feed.
