Bio Ethylene

Ethylene is one of the most important building blocks of the chemicals industry and can be produced either via traditional fossil pathways or from renewable feedstocks.

Atol® technology proposes the most promising green route via catalytic dehydration of renewable ethanol. The production of bio-ethylene from a large panel of ethanol feedstocks is now at hand. The quality of the bio-ethylene of Atol® makes it possible to tap into a wide range of applications.

As illustrated below, with Atol® technology, the production of bio-ethylene from a large panel of ethanol feedstocks is now at hand. The quality of the bio-ethylene of Atol® makes it possible to tap into a wide range of applications:

Atol® technology is also meant to bring into the market a soft solution to help the chemical industry upgrading the production assets by utilizing drop-in products that can be processed directly in the current assets.
