Claim:
1. A process for producing diesel from a hydrocarbon stream comprising: compressing a make-up hydrogen stream in a compressor to provide a compressed make-up hydrogen stream; compressing said compressed make-up hydrogen stream in a recycle gas compressor to provide a compressed hydrogen stream; taking a hydrocracking hydrogen stream from the compressed hydrogen stream; hydrocracking the hydrocarbon stream in the presence of the hydrocracking hydrogen stream and hydrocracking catalyst to provide a hydrocracking effluent stream; fractionating at least a portion of the hydrocracking effluent stream to provide a diesel stream; and hydrotreating the diesel stream in the presence of a hydrotreating hydrogen stream and hydrotreating catalyst to provide a hydrotreating effluent stream.
