WHAT DOES REFORMATE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Catalytic reforming

Catalytic reforming is a chemical process used to convert petroleum refinery naphthas distilled from crude oil, typically having low octane ratings, into high-octane liquid products called reformates, which are premium blending stocks for high-octane gasoline. The process converts low-octane linear hydrocarbons into high-octane branched alkanes and cyclic naphthenes, which are partially dehydrogenated into high-octane aromatic hydrocarbons. The dehydrogenation produces significant amounts of byproduct hydrogen gas, which is fed into other refinery processes such as hydrocracking. A side reaction is hydrogenolysis, which produces light hydrocarbons of lower value, such methane, ethane, propane, and butanes. In addition to a gasoline blending stock, reformate is the main source of aromatic bulk chemicals, which have diverse uses, most importantly as raw materials for plastics. However, the benzene content of reformate makes it carcinogenic, which has led to regulation effectively limiting its use as is; further processing is required to reduce the benzene content.

Definition of reformate in the English dictionary

The definition of reformate in the dictionary is a product which occurs during gasoline production and which is the result of a hydrocarbon reforming process.
