Light straight run gasoline

Light straight-run gasoline Composed primarily of components >C5with a cut point typically between 180°F to 200°F (82.2°C to 93.3°C). It is separated from heavy straight-run gasoline and is caustic washed, hydrotreated, or sweetened the octane number is sometimes improved through isomerization. [Pg.40]

The Cyclic adsorption process of aromatic recovery employs the same principles as the Arosorb process. However, kerosene or a pentane fraction is used as the desorbent (stripper) when treating reformate, or a light straight-run gasoline when treating kerosene. [Pg.346]

Each fraction of distilled petroleum still contains a complex mixture of chemicals but they can be somewhat categorized. A certain sample of straight-run gasoline (light naphtha) might contain nearly 30 aliphatic, noncyclic hydrocarbons, nearly 20 cycloaliphatic hydrocarbons (mainly cyclopentanes and cyclohexanes) sometimes called naphthenes, and 20 aromatic compounds. [Pg.96]

In naphtha and light distillate components, oxygen-containing compounds appear as carboxylic acids and phenols. Most of these compounds concentrate in the kerosene, fuel oil, and lighter lubricant fractions. Straight-run gasoline, heavy distillates, and residual fuels usually contain few acids. [Pg.38]

Isomerization of n-paraffins in the C5-C6 range, such as those present in the LSR (light straight run) fraction, is industrially carried out to improve the octane number of the gasoline. Skeletal isomerization of n-paraffins is an acid-catalyzed reaction that is thermodynamically favored at lower temperatures. Therefore, acid catalysts with strong acidity have to be used in order to perform the reaction at temperatures as low as possible. The process is carried out in the presence of hydrogen and a bifunctional catalyst, which typically consists of a noble metal (Pt) supported on an acidic carrier. [Pg.36]

Naphthas, bp 20 to 200 °C, are a mixture of C5 to Cjg alkanes and cycloalkanes. Naphthas also contain small amounts of benzene, toluene, xylene, and other aromatic hydrocarbons (Chapter 9). The light naphtha fraction, bp 20 to 150°C, is the source of straight-run gasoline and averages approximately 25% of crude petroleum. In a sense, naphthas are the most valuable distillation fractions, because they are useful not only as fuel, but also as sources of raw materials for the organic chemical industry. [Pg.93]

LSR stands for light straight run, a gasoline stream comprising mostly linear C5 and Ce paraffins. [Pg.96]
