Ethylene by Steam Cracking of Naphtha
Ethylene, the most-made organic chemical, comes from cracking hydrocarbons with steam. Naphtha mixed with steam passes through furnace tubes at around 850 °C for milliseconds and is quenched at once. The cracked gas is compressed in three stages and separated by cryogenic distillation into ethylene, propylene and the rest.

1
Crack with steam
Crack with steam
Mix naphtha with steam and pass it through the furnace tubes at around 850 °C. Keep it there only milliseconds.
Materiales para este paso:
Nafta1 tHerramientas necesarias:
Horno de craqueo con vapor
Agua2
2
Quench
Quench
Cool the gas at once in a transfer line heat exchanger or with quench oil, so the cracking stops.
Herramientas necesarias:
Horno de craqueo con vapor3
3
Compress
Compress
Compress the cracked gas in three stages.
Herramientas necesarias:
Compresor de gas4
4
Separate cold
Separate cold
Separate the gas by cryogenic distillation into hydrogen and methane, ethylene, propylene and heavier parts.
Herramientas necesarias:
Columna de destilación criogénica5
5
De-coke the furnace
De-coke the furnace
Coke builds up in the tubes. Every few months take the furnace off line and remove it.
