INS studies of the interaction of propene with ZSM-5
Abstract: Fluidised Catalytic Cracking (FCC) units are one of the major conversion units in modern petrochemical refineries. ZSM-5 additives are used in FCC units to convert gasoline (mainly gasoline olefins) into lighter C3 and C4 olefins (propene and butenes). Propene is a key feedstock for downstream petrochemical industry and plays a major role in a variety of polypropene products in the market. There is a global supply shortage of propene and improving propene yields from FCC units is seen as one strategy for meeting that supply gap. This proposal, and a parallel QENS proposal, aims to understand how ZSM-5 reacts with propene.
