Motor gasoline and aviation gasoline

CPC v2.1 Code: 3331

About motor gasoline and aviation gasoline

cpc code 3331 covers the production and distribution of motor gasoline and aviation gasoline, two of the most essential fuels for the transportation industry. These refined petroleum products play a crucial role in powering vehicles and aircraft, enabling the movement of people and goods across the globe. As a key component of the broader energy sector, the motor and aviation gasoline industry is a vital contributor to economic growth and development.

Production process

The production of motor gasoline and aviation gasoline involves a series of complex refining processes. Crude oil, the primary raw material, is first distilled to separate its various hydrocarbon components. The resulting fractions are then further processed through catalytic cracking, reforming, and blending to produce the desired fuel specifications for both motor and aviation applications.

Production inputs

The motor and aviation gasoline industry relies on a range of inputs, including crude oil, catalysts, and specialized refining equipment. Crude oil, the primary feedstock, is sourced from domestic and international suppliers and transported to refineries for processing. Catalysts, such as zeolites and platinum, play a crucial role in the refining processes that convert crude oil into the final fuel products. Additionally, the industry requires significant investments in refining infrastructure, including distillation towers, catalytic crackers, and blending facilities, to ensure efficient and high-quality production.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of cpc code 3331 are motor gasoline and aviation gasoline, which are consumed by a wide range of industries and end-users. Motor gasoline is the predominant fuel used in passenger vehicles, light-duty trucks, and some industrial equipment. 3412 Motor vehicles, 3420 Motorcycles and bicycles, and 3530 Aircraft and spacecraft are among the key industries that rely on motor gasoline as a vital input. Aviation gasoline, on the other hand, is specifically formulated for use in piston-engine aircraft, supporting the operations of the 3530 Aircraft and spacecraft industry.
