Removing inert C3 hydrocarbons from LPG before C4 conversion raises isobutane concentration, improving MTBE reaction efficiency and lowering energy use.
Magnesium incorporation in the SSZ-94 MTT sieve improves hydroisomerization selectivity and activity while raising lube yield and lowering gas make.
Magnesium in the SSZ-93 MTT-type molecular sieve improves hydrocarbon conversion selectivity, lube yield, and viscosity index while reducing gas make.
A multistep hydroformylation and decarbonylative olefination route targets specific alpha olefins while avoiding complex product mixtures.
Metathesis, cracking, and recycle loops convert butene feedstocks into ethylene or propylene while balancing yield, flexibility, and cost.
Separating field butane into n-butane and isobutane enables cleaner ethylene, butanol, and alkyl tert-butyl ether production with better C4 use.
Weakly acidic silicon-aluminium mixed oxides shift C4-C9 terminal olefins to internal olefins while limiting oligomerization and preserving catalyst life.
Superheated separator vapor preheats column draw streams before the fired heater, cutting fuel use, CO2 emissions, and coking risk.
By splitting light and heavy hydrocarbon fractions, this case boosts aromatics yield and produces 99% pure C8 aromatics from lower-value feedstocks.
Using trimethylimidazolium and TON seeds, this case shortens crystallization while producing small, selective TON molecular sieves.
Specific metal oxide additives enable lower-temperature hydrocarbon conversion while resisting sulfur, nitrogen, and coke-driven deactivation.
Catalytic 1-butene isomerization to 2-butene enables lower-energy rectification of C4 streams to produce high-purity isobutene.
