Process Advantages

 
     Aromatization technology for octane improvement
  • Upgrade low octane gasoline to premium gasoline
  • Overall product utilization (gasoline +LPG) is greater than 93%
  • The upgraded RON 90 gasoline has low sulfur and olefins, and is excellent blending material combined with FCC gasoline
     Aromatization technology for aromatics production
  • Convert C4 – C8 olefins into aromatics
  • No hydrogen needed
  • Complete integration with Steam Cracker possible with dry gas for hydrogen recovery; LPG and paraffins are recycled to steam cracking
  • Simple distillation is typically used to meet the aromatics specifications for paraxylene manufacture
  • Feedstocks can be from FCC, Steam Cracking, and Coking
