Steam cracking method utilizing electricity for providing energy

Abstract

The present invention provides a method of steam cracking using electricity to supply energy. This method is to provide energy for steam cracking reaction of a cracking raw material by electromagnetic induction with electricity; the cracking raw material comprises one or more of naphtha, cycloalkane and cycloolefin; wherein the cycloalkane is a C4-C8 cycloalkane, and the cycloolefin is a C4-C8 cycloolefin. The present invention utilizes electricity to provide energy for the steam cracking reaction through an electromagnetic coil, which is a new use of electricity and solve the current problem of excess electricity. Moreover, utilizing the electromagnetic coil to provide power can make the heat distribution in the furnace tube of the cracking furnace more uniform, and it is easier to control the reaction temperature and the progress of the reaction.
