WEBINAR
New & innovative methods for the conversion of alkanes to olefins and aromatics

C123 , ZEOCAT-3D and  BIZEOLCAT projects funded in 2019 by Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation (RIA)  presented innovative and greener ways to convert alkanes into olefins and aromatics in a joint webinar.

The free webinar, organized by SINTEF (Norway), aimed to inform stakeholders and interested citizens exchanging lessons learned and advancements in “Catalytic transformation of hydrocarbons”.

141 persons registered with an average of 75 participants attending during the whole event.

Membrane reactors for dehydrogenation reactions – Fausto Gallucci, TUE

To improve light alkanes dehydrogenation and separation, membrane reactors are the way: very selective towards hydrogen and with high flux, coupling mechanical and chemical stability. Membrane Reactors also show Environmental and economic convenience in propylene production in respect with other traditional methodologies.
