2002 NAICS Definitions

325110 Petrochemical Manufacturing

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in (1) manufacturing acyclic (i.e., aliphatic) hydrocarbons such as ethylene, propylene, and butylene made from refined petroleum or liquid hydrocarbon and/or (2) manufacturing cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, styrene, xylene, ethyl benzene, and cumene made from refined petroleum or liquid hydrocarbons.

Cross-References. Establishments primarily engaged in--

• Manufacturing petrochemicals by refining crude petroleum--are classified in Industry 324110, Petroleum Refineries;
• Manufacturing acetylene--are classified in Industry 325120, Industrial Gas Manufacturing;
• Manufacturing basic organic chemicals (except petrochemicals)--are classified in Industry 32519, Other Basic Organic Chemical Manufacturing; and
• Recovering liquid hydrocarbons from oil and gas field gases--are classified in Industry 21111, Oil and Gas Extraction.
