Ethylene is ranked as one of the top 5 product to produce by chemical industries world wide. Ethylene is manufactured from naphtha and LPG gas petroleum + reactions. This process is used to produced ethylene and small chains of hydrocarbons
In the catalytic process the heavy crude oil vapour is combined with a hot catalyst composed of powerful Zeolite (Aluminium silicate) with high interred surface area due to cavities and turmoils
