Up went the heat to 900°. Pressure was applied. And as still men and panel men anxiously watched the gauges, the vaporized residuum was forced through the macaroni-shaped catalyst of silica and alumina. When 11-4 had done its work, yield sheets showed that the waste oil had given 7,200 barrels of gasoline. Furthermore, the gasoline had an octane (antiknock) rating of 81, compared...
