A process for increasing the production of light olefin hydrocarbons from
a hydrocarbon feedstock. A process for producing an aromatic hydrocarbon
mixture and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) from a hydrocarbon mixture, and
a process for producing a hydrocarbon feedstock which is capable of being
used as a feedstock in the former process, that is to say, a fluidized
catalytic cracking (FCC) process, a catalytic reforming process, and/or a
pyrolysis process, are integrated, thereby it is possible to increase the
production of C.sub.2-C.sub.4 light olefin hydrocarbons.
