Global Reforming Unit Market Gains Impetus from Spike in Demand for High-octane Gasoline

A reforming unit, also known as a catalytic or thermal reformer, is a key component of the petroleum refining process. A reforming unit helps carry out a chemical process that enables the conversion of petroleum refinery naphthas, which are distilled from crude oil, into high-octane liquids. These high-octane liquids are known as reformates, which in turn are much sought after for their attributes as high-quality blending stocks for high-octane gasoline.

By converting low-octane paraffins into branched alkanes and cyclic naphthenes, it is possible to dehydrogenate these to produce high-octane aromatic hydrocarbons. Hydrogen gas, which is a byproduct of the dehydrogenation process, can further be used in hydrocracking and other processes.

One of the most important drivers of the reforming unit market is the spike in demand for high-octane gasoline. However, reforming units also come with their share of disadvantages, which will likely stand in the way of optimal market growth. Among the greatest challenges faced in a reforming unit is maintaining the right outlet temperature across all reactors. In the event an unscheduled shutdown occurs in the reforming unit, there is a high chance that the output of other units will also be adversely impacted. The ultimate impact of this is a monetary loss that the plant or company will have to incur.

The reforming process entails the use of three catalyst reactors installed separately. Each of these reactors has a precisely controlled environment, where the temperature and pressure are both kept within specific levels. Naphtha and heavy straight run (HSR) gasoline, which are derived from the crude distillation unit, are the most commonly used feedstock for catalytic reformers. A catalytic reformer also supplies benzene toluene xylene (BTX), which is sold to chemical plants to earn additional revenue.

Basis process, the report segments the global reforming unit market into: Thermal and catalytic reforming. A thermal reforming unit, as can be gauged from the name, requires extremely high temperatures to operate, whereas this isn’t the case with a catalytic reforming unit. A thermal reforming unit offers residual products such as gas, residual oil, and gasoline. It is possible to increase the yield of these products by using a catalyst.

The report conducts a detailed analysis of the key players that have a strong presence in the global reforming unit market. Among the companies profiled are: KBR Inc., Atlantic Richfield Oil Company, Ventech Engineers International LLC, KASUS Technical Service & Consulting GmbH, Chevron Corporation, Siemens Industry, Inc., Larsen & Toubro Limited, Linde AG, and Honeywell International Inc.
