The order of preference for feedstock to a catalytic reformer is _________________ ?

Correct answer: B. Coking naphtha - virgin naphtha - catalytic naphtha

  • A. Catalytic naphtha - coking naphtha - virgin naphtha
  • B. Coking naphtha - virgin naphtha - catalytic naphtha
  • C. Virgin naphtha - catalytic naphtha - coking naphtha
  • D. Virgin naphtha - coking naphtha - catalytic naphtha

Explanation

The usual preference listed for catalytic-reformer feed is coking naphtha, followed by virgin naphtha and then catalytic naphtha. Catalytic-cracking naphtha is less preferred because its olefins and contaminants promote coke formation and complicate reforming.
