According to MRFR analysis, by volume, the global benzene market was sized at 54,510-kilo tons in 2018 and is projected to grow at a moderate CAGR of 3.6% during the review period.
Benzene is a toxic, flammable, and volatile hydrocarbon. The most common route to produce benzene is by crude refining, or as a by-product of p-xylene production. This implies that benzene production is entirely dependent on crude oil refining processes. It ... Read more
There are various types of catalysts used at different stages of the refining process depending on the specific chemical reactions being facilitated. Some of the main types of catalysts used include:
Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) Catalysts
FCC is a major conversion process that breaks down larger, heavier hydrocarbon molecules in the presence of a catalyst into smaller, lighter molecules ... Read more
