Refinery profit margins increased significantly by using the on-line gasoline blend optimization system which allows considerable savings resulting from octane give-away reduction, appreciably enhanced butane utilization, optimum use of the available blend components, and increased operating flexibility by elimination of reblends. The experience with this advanced on-line blending system is described in this paper.
