Abstract
An objective of the present invention is therefore to provide a process for producing kerosene from a paraffinic feedstock produced by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, comprising at least one hydrocracking step and at least one hydroisomerization step arranged in series. The operating conditions and catalysts used in said steps are specifically chosen to selectively produce a kerosene fraction, while minimizing the production of light fractions such as C1-C4 light gases and naphtha, through specific management of the recycle gases. The process also allows the hydroisomerization step (e) and / or the hydrocracking step (c) to be carried out at a pressure level lower than that of the hydrotreating step (a).
