• Liquefied Petroleum Gas

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is one of the petrochemical products, which refers to the petroleum gas that can be liquefied or stored and transported in liquid phase under appropriate ambient temperature and pressure. LPG mainly comes from the by-product gas from various devices in petroleum processing, and some comes from natural gas (including oil-associated gas). Obtained from refinery gas, LPG is mainly composed of propane, propylene, butane, butene, a small amount of pentane, pentene and traces of sulfur compound impurities. The liquefied gas obtained from natural gas (including oil-associated gas) basically doesn’t contain olefins.

• Petroleum Coke

Petroleum coke is a hard solid petroleum product in black or dark gray, and is characterized by metallic luster and porosity. It is carbon-shaped stuff composed of tiny graphite crystals formed into granules, columns or needles. The composition of petroleum coke is hydrocarbons, containing 90-97% carbon, 1.5-8% hydrogen, and elements such as nitrogen, chlorine, and sulfur.

Petroleum coke is the carbonized product of heavy residue produced by crude oil processing (atmospheric and vacuum distillation, catalytic cracking, etc.). The main production techniques include delayed coking and fluidized coking.

Generally speaking, petroleum coke refers specifically to sponge coke. Currently, domestic manufacturers mainly produce it in accordance with the industry standards NB/SH/T 0527-2019 formulated by Sinopec (see Table 1 for details). The standards apply to both imported and domestic petroleum coke, which are used as common-power graphite electrodes, carbon raw materials and fuels for aluminum, etc. Needle-shaped coke meets the requirements of the standards of GB/T 37308-2019 for “Oil-based Needle Coke” and T/ZGTS 002-2019 for “Oil-based Needle Coke for Graphite Electrodes”.

Gasoline is generally a water-white transparent liquid that is primarily used as a fuel in spark-ignition engine (i.e., gasoline engine), with a density of between 0.720 to 0.775 g/cm³ and a special aroma. It is divided into aviation gasoline and automotive gasoline by purpose. Gasoline sold in gas stations is generally automotive gasoline and automotive ethanol gasoline (E10). The current standard for automotive gasoline products in China is GB 17930 Code of Gasoline for Motor Vehicles, in which the gasoline is graded into 89#, 92#, 95# and 98#. The current standard for automotive ethanol gasoline (E10) is GB 18351 Code of Ethanol Gasoline for Motor Vehicles (E10), in which the ethanol gasoline is graded into 89#, 92#, 95# and 98#. The gradings of aforementioned types of gasoline are both based on research octane number.
