A method, process, and system are disclosed for removing silicon-containing compounds from refinery hydrocarbon streams using alkaline treatment. The refinery stream, which may originate from units such as a crude stream, delayed coker, or other process unit, is contacted with an alkaline agent, such as a solid or an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, or an amine. This treatment extracts at least a portion of the silicon-containing compounds, including organic silicon species, from the hydrocarbon stream. The process may be applied to whole streams or specific fractions such as LPG, naphtha, kerosene, diesel, or coker gas oil. Following alkaline treatment, the hydrocarbon stream may be directed to a hydrotreating unit, where reduced silicon content reduces catalyst poisoning.
