Abstract
Catalytic reforming of C.sub.9 + containing naphtha with a high yield of BTX is disclosed. Naphtha is converted under customary reforming conditions on a catalyst which contains at least one platinum group metal at least one metal of the group IV B, and at least one halogen component on an oxidic carrier.

A method for the catalytic reforming of naphtha with a high yield of BTX aromatics, comprising, without any partial reformation or fractionation catalytically converting a full boiling range feed stock C.sub.9 + containing naphtha under reforming conditions in the presence of a catalyst which contains at least one platinum group metal which is platinum, at least one metal of the group IVB which is zirconium and at least one halogen component which is chlorine on an oxidic carrier, said catalyst being the sole catalyst used for converting naphtha.
