ISOM-SIM Improvements

Attention in the industry has continued to focus on the naphtha and gasoline sections in refineries

  • Regulatory changes to gasoline specifications and treatment have placed a greater demand on naphtha treating
  • The shift in Europe from diesel demand to gasoline has created a need to re-evaluate operating scenarios to maximize gasoline production.

Petro-SIM 6.2 expands Petro-SIM's refining capabilities in the naphtha and gasoline modelling areas with improvements to the Isomerisation modelling capabilities.

Improvements to ISOM-SIM in 6.2 include

  • Added C6N disproportion to C7N to C9N.
  • Added C4 cracking and nC5 make.
  • Added C6 cyclic effect on nC6 to 22DMB and C5 isom reactions.
  • Added flexibility in C1 to C4 selectivity from cracking.
  • Enabled the reactions of A to N and P to N.
