Higher pressure in the reforming reactor________________?

Correct answer: A. None of these

  • A. None of these
  • B. Increases the rate of reaction
  • C. Produces high octane number gasoline
  • D. Increases coke formation

Explanation

In catalytic reforming, higher pressure favours hydrogenation and suppresses coke deposition, while lower pressure generally promotes higher octane through aromatisation. Since none of the listed statements describes the pressure increase correctly, the answer is none of these.
