- Propene is an
unsaturated organic compound having the chemical formula C3H6 , and it
also known as propylene.
- Propylene, a
light olefin, is one of the most important feedstocks for the
petrochemical industry.
- Polypropylene
(PP), acrylonitrile, oxo alcohols, propylene oxide, cumene and acrylic
acid are the main derivatives of propylene.
- The UOP
Oleflex process is a catalytic dehydrogenation technology for the
production of light olefins from their corresponding paraffins.
Propylene is obtained from propane by this technology.
- Lurgi
Methanol to Propylene technology is based on the efficient combination
of two main features: 1. Fixed-bed reactor system selected as the most
suitable reaction system from a technological and economic point of view
regarding this specific task, 2. Highly selective and stable
zeolite-based fixed-bed catalyst commercially manufactured
- Propylene is
obtained from the two main sources, as a byproduct from the steam
cracking of liquid feedstocks such as naphtha as well as LPGs, and from
off-gases produced in fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) units in
refineries.
- The five
process in producing propylene is Steam Cracking, Fluid Catalytic
Cracking, Propane Dehydrogenation, Natural Gas or Methanol to Olefins,
Olefin Conversion.
- Propylene
being the word’s second largest petrochemical commodity is used in the
production of polypropylene, acrylonitrile, acrylic acid, acrolein,
propylene oxide and glycols, plasticizer oxo alcohols, cumene, isopropyl
alcohol, and acetone.
- Propylene is
used in calibration gas mixtures for petrochemical industry;
environmental emission monitoring, industrial hygiene monitors and trace
impurity analyzers.
- Propene is
used as major raw material for the production of polypropylene, a
versatile polymer widely used in several different grades for
packaging.
- Propylene
demand is growing faster than ethylene, combined with the building of
more ethane crackers rather than naphtha crackers, on-purpose
technologies are being employed increasingly to make propylene.
- The world
propylene consumption is forecasted to increase by 4.8% per year in the
next few years.
- Propylene
demand is expected to grow faster than supply. Propylene supply/demand
conditions and pricing are strongly dependent on refinery production and
the supply/demand balance, operating rates and feedstock slates in the
ethylene industry.
- Propylene
demand growth continues to be strong in Asia and driven by China which
is expected to account for three quarters of the total Asian growth over
the next five years.
