  • Patent number: 10822555
    Abstract: A process reducing sulfides R1-S-R2, with R1 and R2 methyl or ethyl, in a gasoline containing diolefins, mono-olefins and sulphur: A) contacting gasoline in mixture with a light gasoline cut recycled from C) and hydrogen in a reactor with catalyst A at least one VIb metal and at least one non noble group VIII metal on a support, producing effluent having diolefins and sulfides R1-S-R2, with R1 and R2 methyl or ethyl radicals lower than that that of the starting gasoline; B) the effluent from A) is sent into a fractionating column separating at the top a light gasoline cut containing hydrocarbons having less than 6 carbon atoms per molecule and at the bottom a heavy gasoline cut containing hydrocarbons having 6 and more than 6 carbon atoms per molecule; C) recycling a part of the light gasoline from B) to the reactor of A) with a recycle ratio 0.1 to 0.7.

  • Patent number: 10703997
    Abstract: A process for the desulphurization of a gasoline cut containing sulphur-containing compounds, olefins and diolefins, involving (a) fractionating the gasoline in order to recover a light gasoline cut LCN and a first heavy gasoline cut HCN; (b) desulphurization of the first heavy gasoline cut HCN; (c) partially condensing desulphurization effluent obtained from b) in a manner such as to produce a gaseous phase of hydrogen and H2S and a liquid hydrocarbon phase HCN of dissolved H2S; (d) separating the liquid hydrocarbon phase HCN into an intermediate gasoline cut MCN and a second heavy gasoline cut HHCN; (e) carrying out a second desulphurization of the second heavy gasoline cut HHCN.

  • Patent number: 10377957
    Abstract: A process for the treatment of a gasoline containing sulphur-containing compounds, olefins and diolefins, comprising the following steps: a) fractionating the gasoline in a manner such as to recover at least one intermediate gasoline cut, MCN, comprising hydrocarbons and wherein the temperature difference (?T) between the 5% and 95% by weight distillation points is less than 60° C.; b) desulphurizing the intermediate gasoline cut MCN alone and in the presence of a hydrodesulphurization catalyst and hydrogen in a manner such as to produce a partially desulphurized intermediate gasoline cut MCN; and c) fractionating, in a splitter, the at least partially desulphurized intermediate gasoline cut MCN which has not undergone catalytic treatment subsequent to step b), in a manner such as to recover an intermediate gasoline with low sulphur and mercaptans contents from the column head and a cut of hydrocarbons containing sulphur-containing compounds including mercaptans from the column bottom.
