FIELD: technological processes.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to catalytic aromatization unit of light hydrocarbons comprising a heater, a catalytic reactor, a recovery heat-exchanger unit, characterized in that at least one catalytic zone and one oxidation zone separated by a hydrogen selective and a heat-conducting membrane are located in the reactor. In this case, the catalytic zone is equipped with feed line, on which the first heater, a recovery heat-exchanger and a second heater are arranged, and catalyst outlet line through a recovery heat-exchanger, and oxidation zone is located on line of circulating heat carrier, on which the second heater, the recovery heat-exchanger are located, the first heater and gas circulator, while to the line of circulating heat carrier is adjoined by air entrainment and line of output heat carrier medium. Invention also relates to a mode of operation of unit.
EFFECT: simplification of the aromatization unit and increase in the yield of aromatic hydrocarbons.
