The e-CRACKER project aims to revolutionize the chemical industry by implementing electrification through shockwave heating. This technology will enhance the production of light olefins, improving yields and reducing carbon emissions by utilizing renewable electricity.
Power to heat (P2H) is expected to be the first type of electrification that will drastically transform the chemical industry.
This holds in particular for producing its major building blocks: the 300 Mt/yr light olefins via steam cracking at more than 800°C. e-CRACKER will implement P2H by so-called shockwave heating, enabling an increase in temperature to >1000°C in 10 ms, an order of magnitude faster than the current furnace-based technology in a revolutionary High-Mach reactor.
