    Abstract: A process, a process plant and equipment for conversion of a feedstock rich in oxygenates to a hydrocarbon including directing the feedstock in combination with a recycle gas stream to a hydroprocessing step, to provide a two-phase hydroprocessed process stream including at least hydrogen, methane and hydrocarbons, combining a methane lean stream of hydrocarbons being liquid at ambient temperature, with a methane donor stream being either (i) the two-phase hydroprocessed process stream including methane or (ii) a gaseous stream derived from the two-phase hydroprocessed process stream by phase separation, to provide a multiple-phase combined stream, separating the multiple-phase combined stream into at least a hydrogen rich gas stream and a rich liquid hydrocarbon stream, in a desorption step desorbing an amount of methane from the rich liquid hydrocarbon stream, to provide a methane rich gas phase and a liquid product stream of hydrocarbons.
