Hi,
I have been checking the historical trend (from 2002 to 2008) about the differences between cracked naphtha final boiling point and light cycle oil (LCO) initial boiling point and I found that always the Naphtha End point is lesser than the LCO IBP.
I want to know if this is normal. If is so, can anyone explain the reason?
I know that we need to check the T5%LCO - T95% Naphtha, but the difference is bigger.
Regards

The difference in 5/95% boling points of adjacent products is the measure of fractionation efficiency in distillation towers.
There are no cases which are "normal" or "not normal" - it all depends on what fractionation efficiency and separation sharpness your tower has been designed for, and what are the actual parameters versus design parameters. 字串7
In general, it's always better to have positive difference, such in your case. It means you're not losing naphtha in LCO and vice versa.
