Developments in Petrochemicals: Aromatics and Polymers I

The session on Developments in Petrochemicals: Aromatics and Polymers will focus on project and technical developments mainly in the heavier petrochemical product areas, including updates in catalysis, thermodynamic characterization, modelling, economics, and other process innovations. Topic areas can include: polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene, and other polymer areas, as well as the production of aromatics (BTX), and aromatic derivatives such as, but not limited to, ethylbenzene, cumene, linear alkylbenzene (LAB), styrene, phenol, bis-phenol A, teraphthalic acid, polyethyleneteraphthalate, caprolactam, and polycarbonates.
