A METHOD FOR COVERING SOLELY BY DEHYDROCYCLIZATION REACTIONS 12 CARBON ATOM TO 20 CARBON ATOM PARAFFINIC HYDROCARBONS SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING ING OF 12 CARBON ATOM TO 20 CARBON ATOM STRAIGHT-CHAIN AND 12 CARBON ATOM TO 20 CARBON ATOM BRANCHED-CHAIN PARAFFINIC HYDROCARBONS INTO POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS WHICH COMPRISES CONTACTING THE 12 CARBON ATOM TO 20 CARBON ATOM PARAFFINIC HYDROCARBONS IN THE PRESENCE OF EXCESS HYDROGEN WITH A CATALYST CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF PLATINUM ASSOCIATED WITH AN ACIDIC METAL OXIDE COMPONENT AT A TEMPERATURE BETWEEN 750*F. AND 950*F., A PRESSURE BETWEEN 150 AND 500 POUNDS PER SQUARE INCH, A LIQUID HOURLY SPACE VELOCITY BETWEEN 1.0 AND 6.0 VOLUMES OF CHARGE PER VOLUME OF CATALYST PER HOUR AND A HYDROGEN TO HYDROCARBON MOL RATIO OF BETWEEN 5:1 AND 25:1.
