A comprehensive textbook on petrochemical conversion processes for
petroleum and natural gas fractions as produced by refinery
operations This innovative textbook provides essential links
between the chemical sciences and chemical technology, between
petrochemistry and hydrocarbon technology. The book brings alive
key concepts forming the basis of chemical technology and presents
a solid background for innovative process development. In all
chapters, the processes described are accompanied by simplified
flow schemes, encouraging students to think in terms of conceptual
process designs. Petrochemistry: Petrochemical Processing,
Hydrocarbon Technology and Green Engineering introduces students to
a variety of topics related to the petrochemical industry,
hydrocarbon processing, fossil fuel resources, as well as fuels and
chemicals conversion. The first chapter covers the fundamentals and
principals for designing several of the processes in the book,
including discussions on thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, reactor
calculations, and industrial catalysts. The following chapters
address recent advances in hydrocarbon technology, energy
technology, and sources of hydrocarbons. The book then goes on to
discuss the petrochemical industry based on four basic pillars, all
derived from petroleum and natural gas: Production of lower
alkenes; other sources of lower alkenes; petrochemicals from C2-C3
alkenes Production of BTX aromatics; chemicals from BTX aromatics
C1 technology Diversification of petrochemicals The growing
importance of sustainable technology, process intensification and
addressing greenhouse gas emissions is reflected throughout the
book. Written for advanced students working in the areas of
petrochemistry, hydrocarbon technology, natural gas, energy
materials and technologies, alternative fuels, and recycling
technologies the book is also a valuable reference for industrial
practitioners in the oil and gas industry.
