Light Coker Naphtha (LCN) from the Coker (DCU) is fed to the existing C5 Merox Unit mercaptan extraction section within the FCC complex. Caustic is regenerated by the existing FCC LPG Merox Unit Regeneration section. The LCN is treated with a circulating caustic solution in the C5 Extractor (T-7591) to remove mercaptans. The treated LCN passes through the C5/Caustic KO Drum (D-7591) and then through the C5 Sand Filter (T-7592). In the LPG Merox Unit, the rich caustic stream is regenerated and the mercaptans are converted to disulfide oil by reaction with air. The regenerated caustic is sent back to the C5 Merox Unit. Di sulfide oils are separated and routed to DD7 for hydrotreating. Vent gas from the disulfide separator is routed to a process heater for combustion.
