In a feed clean-up process at least two adsorbents (2, 4) are installed in front of an oligomerization reactor (3). Olefin feed is sent over one adsorbent (2) and the nitrile poisons are adsorbed so that clean feed will enter the reactor (3). Before the adsorbent (2) will be saturated, the feed (1) is sent to the other, fresh adsorbent (4). At the same time oligomerization product from the reactor (3) is used to desorb nitriles from the spent adsorbent (2).

The present disclosure relates generally to processes and systems for the hydrodeoxygenation of an oxygenate feedstock that increases the conversion of oxygenates to hydrocarbons while avoiding detrimental effects resulting from increasing the severity of the hydrodeoxygenation reaction.

A process and apparatus are disclosed for hydrocracking hydrocarbon feed in a hydrocracking unit and hydrotreating a diesel product from the hydrocracking unit in a hydrotreating unit. The hydrocracking unit and the hydrotreating unit share the same recycle gas compressor. A make-up hydrogen stream may also be compressed in the recycle gas compressor. A warm separator separates recycle gas and hydrocarbons from diesel in the hydrotreating effluent, so fraction of the diesel is relatively simple. The warm separator also keeps the diesel product separate from the more sulfurous diesel in the hydrocracking effluent, and still retains heat needed for fractionation of lighter components from the low sulfur diesel product.

The present subject matter relates to methods and apparatuses for the continuous preparation of a cumene feed for a cumene oxidation process. More specifically, the subject matter relates to a process for passing a cumene alpha-methylstyrene stream through a caustic wash column having an integrated water wash section for the removal of organic acids.
