Abstract
The present disclosure relate to a process plant and a method for production of a hydrocarbon mixture from a feedstock stream comprising oxygenates and a make-up hydrogen gas stream, involving directing a feed stream, comprising the feedstock stream comprising oxygenates, the make-up hydrogen gas stream and a hydrogen rich gas stream, to contact a material catalytically active in deoxygenation under active deoxygenation conditions and withdrawing a deoxygenated product stream, characterized in the hydrogen rich gas stream comprising at least 70 vol % hydrogen, at least 0.1 vol % carbon oxides and at least 50 ppmvol H2S, with the associated benefit that such a method, where carbon oxides are allowed to be present may be realized without requiring a step of purifying said recycled hydrogen rich gas stream, e.g. by use of an amine wash.
