Companion Reports:
This report analyses the economics of Polymer Grade (PG) Propylene production from raffinate-1 in the United States, using two typical integrated processes: isomerization and metathesis. In these processes, 1-butene present in raffinate-1 is isomerized into 2-butenes. The 2-butenes are submitted with ethylene to a metathesis reaction, producing propylene. A C5s stream is generated as by-product.
