Process for reducing the bromine index of a hydrocarbon

A process for reducing the bromine index (BI) of a hydrocarbon feedstock, for example an aromatic hydrocarbon feedstock. Removal of contaminants, more specifically bromine-reactive contaminants such as unsaturated hydrocarbons (e.g., olefins) cause the reduction in the bromine index (BI) of the hydr...

More Information
Summary:A process for reducing the bromine index (BI) of a hydrocarbon feedstock, for example an aromatic hydrocarbon feedstock. Removal of contaminants, more specifically bromine-reactive contaminants such as unsaturated hydrocarbons (e.g., olefins) cause the reduction in the bromine index (BI) of the hydrocarbon feedstock. The process involves providing an adsorbent, such as a zeolite.
