Abstract
The quality upgrade of automotive gasoline is a major national demand at the turn of the century. Facing this challenge, China’s oil refining industry has independently designed a proper technology development strategy, proposed the maximizing iso-paraffins (MIP) technology, and developed a series of technologies and corresponding technical routes adapted to the gasoline production at different emission regulation stages. This paper reviewed the international environment at the beginning of the birth of MIP technology, the problems faced by domestic catalytic cracking technology at that time and the role of MIP technology in the process of gasoline quality upgrading and technology development strategies. On this basis, the relevant researchers closely followed the market demand, continuously absorbed emerging technologies to achieve continuous updates of MIP technology, and thus kept it strong competitive in the market. Based on market demand, the continuous upgrades of MIP technology kept it strongly competitive. The experience and enlightenment of the successful development and large-scale application of MIP technology were expected to become a paradigm of China’s route of scientific and technological self-reliance.
