Aromatic Hydrocarbons

Aromatic Hydrocarbons is a petrochemical fluid produced by cracking other petroleum products. It has many uses. Its color is white.

Production
A way to obtain it is to refine 1000mB Hot Cracked Oil in the Oil Refinery to obtain 400mB Cracked Naphtha, 300mB Cracked Light Oil, 150mB Aromatic Hydrocarbons and 150mB Unsaturated Hydrocarbons and Cracked Oil Tar.

Another method is to use 200mB Steam to cracking 100mB Bitumen in the Catalystic Cracking Tower to obtain 80mB Crude Oil, 20mB Aromatic Hydrocarbons and 2mB low-pressure steam.

Uses
500mB aromatic hydrocarbons and 500mB Petroleum Gas can produce 1 Bakelite.

500mB aromatic hydrocarbons and 1 Niter can produce 4 TNT (not the vanilla TNT!).

Can be solidified into Solid Fuel.

Trivia
In reality, aromatic hydrocarbons refer to the general name of hydrocarbons containing aromatic rings (usually benzene rings), including benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, naphthalene etc.

Some uses of aromatic hydrocarbons are prototype in reality:
 * In reality, bakelite is polymerized from phenols (some compounds with hydroxyl groups on the benzene ring) and aldehydes, and indeed contains aromatic compounds.
 * In reality, TNT is obtained by nitration of toluene (an aromatic hydrocarbon) with concentrated sulfuric acid and nitric acid.
