Naphtha

Type	Crafted material

Transported by	Pipe [II•III•IV] Pickup•Truck Haul Truck (Tank)
Stored in	Fluid Storage [II•III•IV] Shipyard
Created in	None
Used in	Polymerization Plant Rubber Maker

Naphtha is a petrochemical fluid product which is created solely as the result of processing Light Oil in the Distillation (Stage III). It has many applications such as the production of Rubber and Plastic.

Diesel can be converted into Naphtha at a ratio of 4:3, but this is rarely useful unless you have excess Diesel. Flaring Naphtha is one method to prevent refinery arrays from locking up due to output backups at the cost of 2 units of Air Pollution per unit flared. However, a more benign method of disposal of excess Naphtha is to burn it in a Boiler (Gas) to generate Electricity. Even if the Electricity goes unused, this process reduces the amount of Air Pollution created to 2 units per 3 units burned with the added expense of Water used to generate Steam (High), though this can largely be mitigated through the use of Cooling Towers.
