New chemical reactor efficiently makes propylene from shale gas. Hydrogen gas separation allows for higher propane pressures and more propylene production. A plant producing 500,000 metric tons of ...

Global demand for the major petrochemicals ethylene and propylene, considered bellwethers of the petrochemical industry, slowed in 2005. Ethylene demand growth was about 3.1%, down from a typical ...

Propylene oxide (PO) is a high value-added chemical intermediate. In comparison to conventional routes to produce PO, direct epoxidation of propylene with H 2 and O 2 is a green, efficient, and ...

An increase in ethane cracking contributed to reduced coproduct propylene supply during first-quarter 2008. Because gas-plant ethane production will likely continue to increase during second and third ...

Propylene oxide (PO) is a chemical intermediate with a high added value. Direct epoxidation of propylene using H 2 and O 2 is a green, efficient, and sustainable alternative to traditional methods of ...
