METHOD OF PROVIDING HEAT FOR CHEMICAL CONVERSION AND A PROCESS AND SYSTEM EMPLOYING THE METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF OLEFIN

Title:

METHOD OF PROVIDING HEAT FOR CHEMICAL CONVERSION AND A PROCESS AND SYSTEM EMPLOYING THE METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF OLEFIN

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/107651

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

A method and system for providing heat to a chemical conversion process is advantageously employed in the production of olefin by the catalytic dehydrogenation of a corresponding hydrocarbon. The catalytic dehydrogenation process employs diluent steam operating at a steam to oil ratio which can be 1.0 or below and relatively low steam superheater furnace temperature. The process and system are advantageously employed for the production of styrene by the catalytic dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene.
