Petrochemicals & Derivatives (16b)

#95 - Petrochemicals and Derivatives I (16B00)
This session is organized around recent advances in petrochemical and aromatics process and equipment technology. This includes: (1) novel petrochemical equipment design, (2) advances in reactor technology, (3) process integration, and (4) large scale petrochemical complexes. Papers are encouraged from both industry and academia where opportunities to share commercial and operating experience with the theoretical aspects of novel processes can provide for an interesting exchange of ideas.
