Abstract
A process for converting naphtha to light olefins comprises contacting a naphtha stream with a zeolitic catalyst to produce a light paraffin stream. The light paraffin may be separated into an ethane stream and a propane stream. The ethane in the ethane stream may be converted into ethylene, and the propane in the propane in the propane stream may be converted into propylene. The light paraffin stream may also be separated into a heavy stream which may be recycled back to the contacting step.
