In order to blend streams and simulate their behaviour in process units, Netback requires the properties of the input materials used during processing. Normally this information is contained in the assay of crude used and so passed through automatically by Assay. When purchasing feedstocks, the required properties must be included along with the feedstock in order that Assay can effectively model the refinery.
When adding a new feedstock to the Netback case, a set of default properties are included
along with the feedstock. These properties can be edited using the Feedstock Editor.
To open the Feedstock Editor click the
icon next to the feedstock. In the dialog enter the property values for the purchased
feedstock.

Required properties must be edited in the Feedstock Editor for each purchased feedstock
