What will happen to the plant if benzene gets mixed into the crude oil, and how will the specifications of the gasoline and diesel produced change? Will the specific gravity of gasoline increase, or will that of diesel increase?
If benzene does not react, it should go into the gasoline production process
First, it is necessary to clarify into which feedstock this will be added: crude oil, pre-hydrogenation feed oil, reforming feed oil, or diesel hydrogenation feed oil. Second, it is important to understand the refinery process flow； Third, clarify the processing procedures of each refining unit. It is possible to do so: one can explain the problems clearly and improve oneself ； Others can help you solve problems.
It should be clear now: the device is a hydroprocessing unit for gasoline and diesel fuels. It mainly processes diesel, regular gasoline, and coker gasolines as mixed feedstocks. The catalyst does not promote the hydroprocessing of benzene; based on the physical and chemical properties of benzene, it should be separated into hydrogenated naphtha. This hydrogenated naphtha then goes into a continuous reforming unit. It is likely that the aromatic potential of this hydrogenated naphtha will increase significantly upon analysis
