Abstract
Processes for catalytic reforming of a hydrocarbon feedstock may include contacting the hydrocarbon feedstock with catalyst in a first reforming unit to produce a first effluent and used catalyst. The method may further include passing a portion of the first effluent directly to a second reforming unit and contacting the first effluent with catalyst to produce a second effluent and used catalyst. The method may also include passing a portion of the second effluent directly to a third reforming unit and contacting the second effluent with catalyst to produce a reformate effluent and used catalyst. Additionally, the method may include regenerating at least a portion of the used catalyst to produce regenerated catalyst. The catalysts may each include regenerated catalyst.
