Abstract: Process for the production of middle distillates from a paraffinic feedstock produced by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis comprising at least one light fraction, known as condensate, and a heavy fraction, known as waxes, in which: the said light fraction is stored in a vessel (B) maintained under an inert atmosphere and in which the temperature inside the vessel is maintained at a value of less than 20° C.; the said heavy fraction is stored in a vessel (C) maintained under an inert atmosphere and in which the temperature inside the vessel is maintained at a value of between 80 and 230° C.

Abstract: Method for starting up a method for producing kerosene and diesel fuel from hydrocarbon compounds produced by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. The start-up method employs catalytic reaction of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis with a synthesis gas for producing a heavy hydrocarbon fraction and a light hydrocarbon fraction, a reduction (RE) reducing a hydrotreatment catalyst by ensuring contact with a gas comprising hydrogen, bringing the heavy hydrocarbon fraction into contact with the hydrotreatment catalyst (DM). During the step for ensuring contact, the temperature (TEMP) of the catalyst is increased to a temperature of between 260° C. and 360° C. Then, (TR) bringing a mixture comprising the heavy hydrocarbon fraction and the light hydrocarbon fraction into contact with the hydrotreatment catalyst is carried out.

Abstract: A process for the hydrotreatment of a vacuum distillate type hydrocarbon feed containing nitrogen-containing compounds is described, comprising a first step in which the feed is brought into contact with a catalyst in its oxide form, then a second step in which the feed is brought into contact with a dried catalyst comprising at least one organic compound containing oxygen and/or nitrogen.

Abstract: A process for the production of middle distillates from a paraffinic feedstock produced by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis comprising a limited content of molecules containing at least one oxygen atom. In the process, the feedstock is subjected to at least one hydrocracking/hydroisomerization stage in the presence of a hydrogen stream also containing a limited atomic oxygen content.
