FIELD: processing of hydrocarbons. SUBSTANCE: light hydrocarbon materials containing paraffin hydrocarbons C2-C12 are aromatized by contacting in reactor with turbulent fluidized bed of pentasil catalyst at elevated temperature and pressure. Reaction products are separated from catalyst and withdrawn, and withdrawn from reaction products is desired product boiling out within the boiling range of gasoline fraction. Catalyst is conveyed to regeneration and subjected to oxidation regeneration. Regenerated catalyst prior to supply to reactor is treated in turbulent fluidized bed in forereactor with gaseous paraffin-containing material under standard conditions. Treated products are separated and mixed with reaction products withdrawn from reaction. EFFECT: higher efficiency. 6 cl, 1 dwg, 5 tbl
