Project

Power-to-olefins: Electrified steam cracking and plasma booster.

The aim of this product is to drastically reduce CO2 emissions of olefin production by replacing the combustion furnaces, responsible for 90% of the CO2 emissions of this process, by a combination of two new electrified reactor concepts, i.e., an electrified rotor stator steam cracker, and a plasma-based ethylene booster. Our contribution is the latter concept, for which we will develop a kinetic model and a reactor model for process optimization.
