Included activities starts

The activity starts with the production and import of "Benzene" in this region.

Included activities ends

The activity ends with providing the "Benzene" to the consumers of this product. Transportation is included; however, product losses during transport are negligible and therefore not included.

Description

This is a market dataset representing the consumption market in the region. It includes transportation of the product from the factory gate to consumption, with transport services calculated according to the regional transportation conditions for the product.

Activity Description

The process of producing benzene from crude oil refining includes raw material pretreatment, cracking reaction, separation, purification, and packaging processes.

Process Description

Benzene is an organic substance with the CAS number 000071-43-2 and the molecular formula C6H6. Under normal temperature and pressure, it is a liquid with a gasoline-like odor. Benzene can be used to manufacture products in the following fields: chemicals, coatings, fillers, polymers, plastics, and gasoline additives. When used as a fuel, it has a calorific value of 42.50 MJ/kg and is a fossil fuel derived from catalytic reforming of crude oil.
