REFORMATE
This product of aromatic complex is rich in aromatic content and is a potential blend stock for MS with high RON (>100). The product has low benzene, olefins and sulfur content which makes it a premium blending stock for high octane gasoline. It is the main source of aromatic bulk chemicals and contains high proportions of C7,C8 and C9 aromatics which makes it an ideal feed for aromatic complex producing petrochemical products such as benzene, toluene, mixed xylenes, ethylbenzene, C9, C10 aromatics etc. The product is free from metal contaminants, additives or oxygenates. This product is a bright and clear liquid with no free water and vapour pressure less than 50 kpa.
