On-purpose propylene production technologies are filling the gap (see Figure 1). Propane dehydrogenation is the primary on-purpose technology in use, contributing 22% of the propylene production that is filling the supply/demand gap in 2018. By 2027, the percentage is expected to grow to 32%.
What does a PDH unit make?
Propylene can be produced by a process called “propane dehydrogenation” (PDH), which converts propane to propylene on-purpose. Adding PDH units in North America is a viable option to produce sufficient propylene.
What is a PDH unit?
Propane Dehydrogenation (PDH) is a petrochemical process in the production of propylene from propane which is the second most important starting product in the petrochemical industry after ethylene. ... Reaction by-products (mainly hydrogen) are usually used as fuel for the propane dehydrogenation reaction.
