This project utilizes Sinopec’s Ultra-Low Pressure Continuous Reforming (SLCR) and the domestically produced reforming catalyst PS-VI. Using straight-run naphtha and mixed naphtha from the tank farm as feedstock, the complex produces C6/C7 fractions, mixed xylenes, and high-octane gasoline components, while generating reformer hydrogen as a by-product.
The construction includes:
A 1mt/a continuous reforming unit, A 400kt/a aromatic extraction unit, A 40,000-standard-cubic-meter/year hydrogen concentration unit, along with supporting infrastructure such as:
A new 5,000-ton/hour circulating water cooling tower and One high-pressure flare, one low-pressure flare, and one acid gas flare.
