I was the original sole author of this Wikipedia article

I copied it to here at Citizendium as is with the Wikipedia title ... and will now delete all of the Wikipedia links and certain sections. I will also be making some wording changes. - Milton Beychok 18:11, 29 January 2008 (CST)

description of Feed stream in diagram

In the text, the feed stream for catalytic reforming is described as "heavy naphtha". I would recommend to use the same description in the schematic drawing, instead of "Dehexanized Naphtha", in order to prevent confusions. Guido van der Lans 08:33, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your comment, Guido. Changing a drawing requires quite a bit of time and effort. So, instead, I changed the wording in the text to reflect your comment. Milton Beychok 07:03, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

I probably should have nominated along with naptha...nominating now

Since they are rather interdependent. Your call, but I'd move the TOC to the top to remove whitespace. Howard C. Berkowitz 18:26, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

bottoms

The last sentence in "Process description" begins: "The bottoms product ..." -- is this correct, or should it be "The bottom's product ..." or the "The bottom product ..." ? --Peter Schmitt 23:18, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
