1: World Ethylene Production by Steam Cracking (226k)
This compendium gives an overview of the technologies and
economics in the production of olefins in the petrochemical industries.
It highlights the options and 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.
