Abstract: A rapid method for the determination of molecular level composition of naphtha was provided. Based on the data samples of group composition (PINA) and single hydrocarbon composition of naphtha by gas chromatography in laboratory, the distribution ratio library of single hydrocarbon in naphtha was established. A large number of virtual samples were generated by sample enhanced (DA) method. A prediction model of naphtha PINA composition was established by using near infrared spectroscopy (NIR) as input variables and partial least squares (PLS) method. A prediction model of naphtha mono-hydrocarbon distribution ratio was established by K-nearest neighbor regression (KNR) method. The prediction results show that within the range of experimental data samples, the model can be used to quickly determine the monomer hydrocarbon molecular composition of naphtha.
