Reformation method - Kaishitsuho
Also known as reforming. One of the petroleum refining processes. An operation that uses heat and catalytic action to change the composition and structure of petroleum hydrocarbons. There are two types of reforming: steam reforming, which uses a catalyst at 700-900°C to react with steam, and catalytic reforming, which uses a suitable catalyst at 500°C and 50 atm in the presence of hydrogen. It is used to obtain high-octane gasoline from petroleum naphtha, and to produce high-octane aromatic hydrocarbons and isoparaffins.
