Claim Text:
1. A method for treating a naphtha boiling range fraction, comprising: receiving a hydroprocessed effluent comprising a naphtha boiling range fraction, the naphtha boiling range fraction comprising a sulfur content of about 200 wppm or less and comprising at least about 50 wppm of olefins, mercaptans, or a combination thereof; and exposing at least a portion of the naphtha boiling range fraction to a hydrotreating catalyst at a temperature of from about 400° F. (204° C.) to about 600° F. (316° C.) and H wherein the hydrotreating catalyst is located on surfaces of walls for a plurality of microchannels, the plurality of microchannels having a length dimension of about 10 μm to about 2 mm and a depth dimension of about 10 μm to about 2 mm, the plurality of microchannels being located in a different vessel from a hydroprocessing reaction stage that generated the naphtha boiling range fraction.
