This report provides the cost structure of propane production by the petroleum refining process. In this process, crude oil is separated into oil and wet gas via gas trap.
Last Updated: January, 2025
The process of crude oil refining leads to the formation of propane as a byproduct. Fluid catalytic crackers (FCC) are another way that propane (and propylene) is created in today's modern refineries. In this procedure, high heat and pressures shatter long-chain hydrocarbon molecules into lighter hydrocarbons that are better suited for the manufacture of motor gasoline. In addition to those gasoline blending products, the refinery crackers also create lighter molecules like propane, regular butane, isobutane, and their olefins.
The project economic analysis provided in the report discusses a Germany-based plant:
