The Tehran oil refinery plans to build an integrated petrochemical plant in line with the global perspective of refined petroleum products. Due to its proximity to the Iranian capital, the facility is also planning to upgrade the quality of its products by establishing a continuous catalytic reforming (CCR) unit. CCR is a chemical process that converts petroleum refinery naphtha distilled from low-octane oil into high-octane liquid products called reformates, which are premium blending stocks for high-octane gasoline.
