FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method of producing middle distillates from paraffin material obtained via Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, involving, before the hydrocracking/hydroisomerisation step, a step for hydrofining and purifying and/or removing impurities by passing through at least one multifunctional protective layer, where the protective layer contains at least one catalyst saturated with an active hydrogenating-dehydrogenating phase and having the following characteristics: volume of macropores with average diametre of 50 nm determined from mercury is higher than 0.1 cm3/g, the complete volume is greater than 0.6 cm3/g. The method also relates to apparatus for realising the disclosed method.
EFFECT: efficient method of obtaining middle distillates from paraffin material.
