    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for conversion of light paraffinic gases to form liquid products in a two-stage reaction system. In a first stage, the light paraffinic gas is exposed to heat transfer particles in a side riser, where the heat transfer particles correspond to particles used in a separate process. Examples of a separate process include fluidized coking and fluid catalytic cracking. The conditions in the side riser can be selected to allow for conversion of at least a portion of the paraffins to olefins. After conversion, the converted olefin stream is passed to the second reaction stage while the heat transfer particles are returned to the separate process. The converted olefin stream is then exposed to a conversion catalyst under conditions for forming aromatics from the converted olefin stream in a second reaction stage. By performing the initial alkane conversion to olefins in the first reaction stage, the amount of coke formed during the aromatics formation process is reduced or minimized.
