Abstract: There is a continuing need within the natural gasoline processing industry for a quantitative correlation of the amount of liquid product which can be extracted from compound containing only hydrogen and carbon. The number of carbon atoms in the molecule determines its weight and, at least for our purposes, how easily it can be liquified. CH, is methane, telling us that methane has one carbon atom per molecule. In gasoline testing, we are looking for the C,,s plus which are the heavier hydrocarbons, the pentanes and heavier. That pretty much describes test gasoline, that is to say our test gasoline should be composed of molecules with 5 or more atoms of carbon in the chain. These Cr,s-plus can be liquified with little trouble, the liquified petroleum gases, or L.P.G.s can be liquified under reasonable pressures and temperatures, while the lighter ends present problems.
