Present disclosure relates to process for increasing the purity and recovery of hydrogen product stream obtained from a dehydrogenation process. The dehydrogenated effluent stream is separated to obtain the net gas stream. The net gas stream is compressed in a hydrogen compressor section. Even after compressing the net gas, traces of toluene are still present in the gas phase. Applicants have found to recover these toluene traces, the compressed gas from the hydrogen compressor section is chilled in a vapor economizer followed by a chiller to produce a chilled stream at a temperature of from about 27 C. to about 17 C. This process also helps maintain the Wobbe Index of the hydrogen product stream in the range of about 44 to about 49 MJ/m.sup.3. In another embodiment, the compressed net gas stream from the hydrogen compressor section is adsorbed in an adsorption unit to separate hydrogen product stream from the recycle gas stream, wherein the recycle gas stream is completely recycled to the hydrogen compressor.
