Abstract
The present invention relates to an integrated process for producing hydrocarbons, wherein feedstock originating from renewable sources is subjected to catalytic hydroprocessing followed by separation of an aqueous component, a heavy component, and a light component, separating carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from said light component to obtain a recycle stream, followed by dividing the recycle stream to a first recycle stream and a second recycle stream, directing the first recycle stream to the hydroprocessing system, and the second recycle stream to a hydrogen plant, where the light component is converted to hydrogen, and directing the hydrogen to the hydroprocessing system.
