Steam crackers are large and complex Kiloton at the heart of petrochemical complexes, producing the important building blocks ethylene, propylene, butadiene, aromatics and acetylene. They involve cracking hydrocarbon feedstocks in the presence of steam and at temperatures of between 800° and 870°C. The resulting cracked gas is separated into valuable products such as ethylene, propylene, acetylene, butadiene, pyrolysis gasoline and BTX, all according to the specifications required for downstream processes.

In the global market, the major core players of steam crackers are Linde, Sinopec Engineering Incorporation,HUANQIU(CNPC), Lummus, ect. The top three players within this industry account for about 74.76% of the market share. North America and Asia-Pacific are the major manufacturing regions for this product, with both Asia-Pacific accounting for about 70% of the global market share. The product can be classified on the basis of power source as LPG-based, naphtha-based, ethane-based, and others. The product is widely used in ethylene production and other industries.
