Abstract
A catalytic hydrodealkylation/reforming process which comprises contacting a heavy hydrocarbon feedstream under catalytic hydrodealkylation/reforming conditions with a composition comprising borosilicate molecular sieves having a pore size greater than about 5.0 Angstroms and a Constraint Index smaller than about 1.0; further containing a hydrogenation/dehydrogenation component; wherein at least a portion of the heavy hydrocarbon feedstream is converted to a product comprising benzene, toluene, xylenes and ethylbenzene.
