The cost of feedstock is considered to be the largest cost in the petrochemical industry. The estimated cost of feedstock to produce BTX accounts for 40-50% of total costs. Catalytic reforming represents the main source for aromatics, accounting for over half of the global production volume. Steam cracking of naphtha is the second main petrochemical source for aromatics. Thirdly, coke-oven light oil (COLO) represents an emerging source for aromatics from coal processing into coke.
