Naphtha is an important raw material for manufacture of clean fuels and ethylene products.However, China is experiencing a serious imbalance between supply and demand of naphtha,due to its rapidly increasing car population and booming ethylene industry,the demand of which cannot be met by the domestic depleting crude oil resources.Focusing on alleviating the above-mentioned naphtha deficit,this paper puts forward an idea suggesting that China’s limited naphtha resource should be used reasonably.Naphtha feedstocks with more potential aromatic content should be used in catalytic reforming process to produce clean fuel products,and those feedstocks with more paraffinic content should be used in ethylene production.Meanwhile,industry tests show that the low-valued naphtha byproduct from ethylene plants and the products of secondary processing units at refineries can also be applied so as to extend the naphtha supply for manufacture of cleaner fuels and ethylene derivatives.
