What Does CCR Stand For?

CCR stands for Conradson Carbon Residue

CCR, or Conradson Carbon Residue, is a measure of the amount of carbonaceous material that remains after the volatile components of a petroleum or petrochemical product have been removed through heating. This test is significant for evaluating the potential for carbon deposits in refining processes and the overall stability of fuels and lubricants. High CCR values may indicate a tendency for increased deposits during combustion or processing, making it a critical parameter in the quality assessment of hydrocarbons.
