Brief Description
Description : | Reformer makes the one-third of the gasoline pool with 60 to 70 vol% of aromatic content to qualify high-octane quality for fuel applications. With the environment restrictions on fuel quality especially on aromatics encourage production of alternative hydrocarbons for filling the octane gap caused by less aromatics in gasoline, where, isomerization of C7+ branched paraffins emerge as a suitable solution. |
