In Nuclear Tech Mod, Aromatic Hydrocarbons is a fluid that serves as a big step in the progression of the mod, as from it, you can make stuff like Bakelite, Petroleum Coke, Solvent, and other important stuff that the mod offers.

It is a green-ish blue-ish type of fluid, viscous, flammable and polluting fluid, providing 458.8kTU per bucket. Basically, it's a must have fluid in the mod that you will surely want to have throughout the entire mod progression because of what it can produce for you and some other factors.

Production

Aromatic Hydrocarbons can be produced in an Oil Refinery, a Catalytic Cracking Tower, in Fractioning Towers, and in the Catalytic Reformer:
