The petrochemical industry is a scientific and engineering field
that encompasses the production of a wide range of chemicals and
polymers. The purpose of this book is not only to provide a
follow-on to form the later chapters of the highly successful
Chemistry and Technology of Petroleum 5th Edition but also provides
a simplified approach to a very diverse chemical subject dealing
with the chemistry and technology of various petroleum and
petrochemical process. Following from the introductory chapters,
this book provides the readers with a valuable source of
information containing insights into petrochemical reactions and
products, process technology, and polymer synthesis. Provides
readers with a valuable source of information containing insights
into petrochemical reactions and products, process technology, and
polymer synthesis Introduces the reader to the various
petrochemical intermediates are generally produced by chemical
conversion of primary petrochemicals to form more complicated
derivative products The reactions and processes involved in
transforming petroleum-based hydrocarbons into the chemicals that
form the basis of the multi-billion dollar petrochemical industry
are reviewed and described The book includes information on new
process developments for the production of raw materials and
intermediates for petrochemicals Includes a description of the
origin of the raw materials for the petrochemicals industry -
including an overview of the coal chemicals industry
