Abstract

A process for the production of propylene and ethylene by non-catalytic oxidative conversion of propane by allowing the endothermic hydrocarbon cracking reaction to occur simultaneously with the exothermic hydrocarbons oxidative conversion reactions in an empty tubular reactor is disclosed. The process comprises mixing of oxygen and propane at ambient temperatures, mixing of sulfur compound with steam, admixing the mixture of steam and sulfur compound and the mixture of oxygen and propane and preheating the resulting admixture, passing said mixture through an empty tubular reactor, cooling and separating the components of effluent product gases by known methods and recycling the unconverted reactants, if required.
