ABSTRACT:
A process for the removal of trace quantities of polynuclear aromatic compounds from the vapor effluent of a hydrocarbon dehydrogenation zone containing normally gaseous olefinic hydrocarbons, trace mononuclear aromatic compounds and trace polynuclear aromatic compounds by contacting the vapor effluent of a hydrocarbon dehydrogenation zone with a lean liquid absorption stream comprising at least one alkylated mononuclear aromatic compound to absorb at least a portion of the trace mononuclear aromatic compounds and the trace polynuclear aromatic compounds to produce a rich liquid absorption stream and a gaseous olefin-containing hydrocarbon stream having a reduced concentration of mononuclear aromatic compounds and polynuclear aromatic compounds. The rich liquid absorption stream is separated to produce a stream rich in mononuclear aromatic compounds, a stream rich in alkylated mononuclear aromatic compounds and a stream comprising polynuclear aromatic compounds. At least a portion of the stream rich in mononuclear aromatic compounds is alkylated with indigenous olefins to provide at least a portion of the lean liquid absorption stream.
