Abstract

A process for the production of middle-distillate hydrocarbon-containing bases from a butanol feedstock, comprising: a) isomerizing dehydration of butanol feedstock; b) separating the water from butylenic effluent; c) purifying the organic liquid effluent from stage b); d) oligomerizing a feedstock that comprises at least a portion of the purified organic effluent from stage c), the entire effluent from stage g), and at least a portion of the light product from stage f); e) oligomerizing the first oligomerization effluent to produce a second oligomerization effluent; f) fractionating the second oligomerization effluent into at least three products: a light product mostly comprising C2 to C4 compounds, an intermediate product mostly comprising C5 to C9 compounds, and a middle distillate product mostly comprising compounds having at least 10 carbon atoms; g) oligomerizing at least a portion of the intermediate product, and h) hydrogenating at least a portion of the middle distillate product.
