“…The tar base-free gas oil from the experiment were very low, and reforming would be necessary to produce motor fuel; however, the low sulfur and nitrogen content of the acid-washed naphtha would simplify the problems of treating to prepare catalytic reforming stock. Sulfur and nitrogen contents of the naphtha were superior to those previously reported for hydrocracking of the Diesel fuel fraction of shale-oil coker distillate at 1100 pounds' pressure (2). The properties were more comparable to those of the naphtha obtained in the 3000-pound hydrocracking of crude shale oil (4).…”

Preselected ranges of temperature and pressure within the commercial reforming ranges were chosen for investigation, with other possible variables held constant.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
