Linde, Shell to commercialise lower-carbon technology for ethylene


Linde and Shell are collaborating on ethane-oxidative dehydrogenation (E-ODH) technology for ethylene production.

The catalytic process is an alternative route to ethane steam cracking, offering the potential of economic advantages, acetic acid co-production and significantly lower overall carbon footprint through electrification of power input.

The two companies have been developing E-ODH independently for many years and this new collaboration brings together their complementary patent positions, expert know-how and common commitment to a lower-carbon future.
