ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Products</h6> <p><b>Styrene</b>. Styrene is a largely available commodity generally produced from ethylbenzene by several means. One of the commercial routes for styrene production relies on the alkylation of benzene with ethylene for generating the ethylbenzene, which is then dehydrogenated to styrene in vapor phase with steam. </p> <p><b>Hydrogen</b>. The hydrogen molecule, H2, is the normal state of pure hydrogen, even though hydrogen can be found in its atomic form under specific conditions. It is a very stable molecule, not usually reactive under normal conditions. Essentially, molecular hydrogen is produced industrially by three different methods: hydrocarbons steam reforming, hydrocarbons partial oxidation and water electrolysis. Hydrogen can also be obtained as a by-product recovered in processes such as the manufacture of styrene from ethylbenzene.</p> <h6>Raw Materials</h6> <p><b>Ethane</b>. Ethane is a colorless, odorless gas with the chemical formula C2H6. The main commercial sources of ethane are wet natural gases and refinery waste gases. Ethane is the second largest component of natural gas, only after methane. In natural gas from shale (or shale gas), the ethane content can reach up to 16% by volume. On industrial scale, it is separated from methane by liquefaction at cryogenic temperatures. The main use of ethane is as petrochemical feedstock for Ethylene manufacturing. In some cases, ethane is not separated from natural gas and it is burnt along with methane as fuel. </p> <b>Benzene</b>. Benzene (C6H6) is a flammable and volatile liquid. As the most simple aromatic hydrocarbon, it is used as an intermediate to produce many important chemicals, such as styrene (raw material for polystyrene and synthetic rubber), cyclohexane (used in nylon production), alkylbenzenes (used in detergent industry), aniline (used to produce dyes and polyurethanes), and chlorobenzenes. Also, benzene is used to produce pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, plastics, and pesticides. It occurs naturally in crude oil and coal tar. </p>

ICC - Short Description: This report presents the economics of Styrene production from ethane and benzene in the United States, with pure hydrogen as by-product. In this report, ethylbenzene (EB) is first generated from benzene and recycled ethylene. Then, fresh ethane and the EB are dehydrogenated to form ethylene and Styrene. The process analyzed is based on concepts proposed in patents issued to Dow and Snamprogetti.
