From your project name, it sounds like you are writing articles or report.

Naphtha is a light cut from refinery CDU. Light naphtha typically have FBP below 170 degC. It comprise many components. Some licensor software can simulate the components with input of boiling point range and PIONA characteristics. And also simulate the cracker products with specific operating condition.

You may need to get some info from research company for the estimation of utility and economic.
