Reformate Production Cost Reports

Reformate production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Reformate production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Reformate. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

 
Reformate is a gasoline blending stock made via catalytic reforming, a refining process where mixed catalysts and hydrogen boost the rearrangement of lower octane naphthenes into higher octane compounds without a major reduction in carbon number. It is the main by-product derived from a catalytic reformer.

Reformate gets its high octane from the high aromatic levels present in the compound. It is a clear liquid that can range from colorless to light yellow and also has a distinct odour. It has a pH of 7. It is highly flammable under conditions of open flames, sparks and static discharge. It is insoluble in cold water and hot water. It has a high-octane number, usually within 90 to 100. It has a high aromatic content and includes hydrocarbons like benzene, toluene, and xylene. It has a low sulfur level which helps lower harmful emissions and meet the environmental laws set in place.

Reformate is primarily used as a high-octane blend stock for making gasoline. Owing to its high-octane number, it is ideally blended with lower-octane gasoline to enhance its overall octane rating of gasoline. Upon being added to gasoline, it helps improve the formulation's combustion efficiency and overall fuel performance. It is especially useful in the production of premium or high-octane gasoline grades and plays a vital role in fulfilling the octane requirements of modern engines while meeting emissions standards which furthers its market demand. Also, it is used as a source of aromatics in the petrochemical industry.
