Petrochemical economics: technology selection in a carbon constrained world
Seddon, Duncan
This compendium gives an overview of the technologies and economics in the production of olefins in the petrochemical industries. It highlights the optionsand costs for producing olefins using different technologies and different feedstocks at a time when the cost of carbon dioxide emissions are set to be included in the production cost. Industry professionals, engineers, research scientists and financiers will find this title a valuable resource. INDICE: World Ethylene Production by Steam Cracking; Chemistry of Olefin Production; Gaseous Feedstocks — Production and Price; Liquid Feedstock, Production and Price; Value of Products, Storage and Transport; Carbon Dioxide Emissions; Ethane Cracking; LPG Cracking; Liquid Feedstock Cracking; Other Routes to Olefins from Hydrocarbons; Routes to Olefins from Coal.
