With the prospect of abundant low-cost ethane, several producers have announced intentions to build new ethylene capacity.
Upgrade low-value refinery streams into higher-value petrochemicals
New catalytic olefin cracking process yields more propylene over ethylene from stranded refining materials
Consider new catalytic routes for olefins production
Innovative catalyst systems enable higher propylene make from liquid feedstocks
Consider improving refining and petrochemical integration as a revenue-generating option
FCC operations may be an increasing propylene source due to new processing methods
