Reformer Light Product Recovery Plant
Objective:
Prepare a design for the recovery of gasoline, butane and propane products from a CCR
(Continuous Catalytic Reformer) and Naphtha Pretreater system.
The aim should be to produce the most economic design i.e.: achieve the highest DCF
(discounted cash flow). The DCF should be at least 20%.
