On-Line Process Gas Analysis In Ethylene Production Plants

Emerson provides Rosemount Analytical gas analyzer technology for on-line analysis in ethylene production plants. Strategically placed gas analyzers improve the process efficiency and the purity of the end product.

Ethylene is one of the most common building blocks in the petrochemical industry with millions of tons produced around the world every year. A typical ethylene plant also produces a number of other important building block chemicals such as propylene and butadiene along with an aromatics-rich pyrolysis gasoline. Ethylene, propylene and butadiene undergo value-added processing in order to synthesize plastics, rubber, fibers and many other organic products.
