  • Naphtha Catalytic Cracking Process Economics Program Report 29K
    ` IHS CHEMICAL Naphtha Catalytic Cracking Process Economics Program Report 29K December 2017 ihs.com PEP Report 29K Naphtha Catalytic Cracking Michael Arne Research Director, Emerging Technologies IHS Chemical | PEP Report 29K Naphtha Catalytic Cracking PEP Report 29K Naphtha Catalytic Cracking Michael Arne, Research Director, Emerging Technologies Abstract Ethylene is the world’s most important petrochemical, and steam cracking is by far the dominant method of production. In recent years, several economic trends have arisen that have motivated producers to examine alternative means for the cracking of hydrocarbons. Propylene demand is growing faster than ethylene demand, a trend that is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. Hydraulic fracturing in the United States has led to an oversupply of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) which, in turn, has led to low ethane prices and a shift in olefin feedstock from naphtha to ethane. This shift to ethane has led to a relative reduction in the production of propylene. Conventional steam cracking of naphtha is limited by the kinetic behavior of the pyrolysis reactions to a propylene-to-ethylene ratio of 0.6–0.7. These trends have led producers to search for alternative ways to produce propylene. Several of these— propane dehydrogenation and metathesis, for example—have seen large numbers of newly constructed plants in recent years. Another avenue producers have examined is fluid catalytic cracking (FCC). FCC is the world’s second largest source of propylene. This propylene is essentially a byproduct of refinery gasoline production. However, in recent years, an effort has been made to increase ethylene and propylene yields to the point that these light olefins become the primary products.

  • Cracking (Chemistry)
    Cracking (chemistry) In petrochemistry, petroleum geology and organic chemistry, cracking is the process whereby complex organic molecules such as kerogens or long-chain hydrocarbons are broken down into simpler molecules such as light hydrocarbons, by the breaking of carbon-carbon bonds in the precursors. The rate of cracking and the end products are strongly dependent on the temperature and presence of catalysts. Cracking is the breakdown of a large alkane into smaller, more useful alkenes. Simply put, hydrocarbon cracking is the process of breaking a long chain of hydrocarbons into short ones. This process requires high temperatures.[1] More loosely, outside the field of petroleum chemistry, the term "cracking" is used to describe any type of splitting of molecules under the influence of heat, catalysts and solvents, such as in processes of destructive distillation or pyrolysis. Fluid catalytic cracking produces a high yield of petrol and LPG, while hydrocracking is a major source of jet fuel, Diesel fuel, naphtha, and again yields LPG.

External links History and patents Among several variants of thermal cracking methods (variously known as the "Shukhov cracking process", "Burton cracking process", "Burton-Humphreys cracking process", and "Dubbs cracking process") Vladimir Shukhov, a Russian engineer, invented and patented the first in 1891 (Russian Empire, patent no. 12926, November 7, 1891).[2] One installation was used to a limited extent in Russia, but development was not followed up.

Miguel Madeira Examiner in FEUP: Eng. Fernando Martins Supervisor in ICT: Doc. Ing Petr Zámostný July 2008 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Doc. Ing. Petr Zámostný for the opportunity to hold a master's thesis in this project, the orientation, the support given during the laboratory work and suggestions for improvement through the work. i Hydrocarbons Thermal Cracking Selectivity Depending on Their Structure and Cracking Parameters Abstract This research deals with the study of hydrocarbon thermal cracking with the aim of producing ethylene, one of the most important raw materials in Chemical Industry. The main objective was the study of cracking reactions of hydrocarbons by means of measuring the selectivity of hydrocarbons primary cracking and evaluating the relationship between the structure and the behavior. This project constitutes one part of a bigger project involving the study of more than 30 hydrocarbons with broad structure variability. The work made in this particular project was focused on the study of the double bond position effect in linear unsaturated hydrocarbons. Laboratory experiments were carried out in the Laboratory of Gas and Pyrolysis Chromatography at the Department of Organic Technology, Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague, using for all experiments the same apparatus, Pyrolysis Gas Chromatograph, to increase the reliability and feasibility of results obtained. Linear octenes with different double bond position in hydrocarbon chain were used as model compounds. In order to achieve these goals, the primary cracking reactions were studied by the method of primary selectivities.
