PONA

PONA is a quality measure for naphtha.

Specifically, it is the volumetric % of paraffins, olefins, naphthenes, and aromatics of the naphtha. It is a good predictor of the quality of reformate that the heavy naphtha will yield when sent through a reformer.

Variations on PONA include PNA and N+2A.
