The Oleflex process utilizes a catalytic dehydrogenation method, where light paraffins are dehydrogenated in the presence of a platinum-based catalyst. This process occurs in a fixed-bed reactor under controlled temperatures and pressures. Key components include:
Feedstock: Typically propane or butane. Catalyst: Platinum-based, often supported by alumina. Reactor: Fixed-bed type. Regenerator: For catalyst regeneration.
