Abstract: The invention relates to a process and system arrangement to generate benzene, toluene and xylenes in a refinery. The process relies on recycling a C9+ aromatic bottoms stream from an aromatic recovery complex back to rejoining a hydrotreated naphtha stream as it enters a catalytic reformer. The aromatic bottoms can be further reacted through both the reformer and the subsequent aromatic recovery complex to transform to higher value compounds, thereby reducing waste or reducing bottoms' presence in gasoline pools.
