Abstract

The invention provides a process for hydrotreating an organic feedstock containing oxygen compounds and a halogen component by means of removing the oxygen compounds with an adsorbent and then contacting the resulting organic feedstock having a reduced concentration of oxygen compounds and a gaseous recycle stream containing hydrogen with a hydrogenation catalyst in a hydrogenation reaction zone to produce an anhydrous liquid stream comprising hydrogenated hydrocarbonaceous compounds having a reduced concentration of halogen and a hydrogen halide compound. The resulting effluent from the hydrogenation zone is optionally separated to produce a hydrogenated hydrocarbonaceous stream having a reduced level of halogen and an anhydrous stream comprising a hydrogen halide compound.
