Extracts (petroleum), clarified oil solvent, condensed-ring-arom

Definition

Extracts (petroleum), clarified oil solvent, condensed-ring-arom is a complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained as the extract from a solvent extraction of catalytic cracked clarified oil. It consists predominantly of aromatic hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly greater than C20 and boiling above approximately 350.degree.C (662.degree.F). This stream is likely to contain 5 wt. % or more of 4- to 6-membered condensed ring aromatic hydrocarbons.
