Source
The main commercial source of ethane is natural gas. Ethane is isolated either by absorption or by partial condensation, followed by distillation. Relatively small amounts of ethane are also produced as by-products from petroleum processes.
Applications
- The main industrial use for ethane is the production of ethene by steam-cracking.
- It is commonly used as a raw material for the manufacture of halogenated ethane
- Ethane is used in the chemical industry for the production of ethanol, ethylenoxide, glycol, acetaldehyde, vinyl acetate, ethyl chloride, dichloroethane, styrene, polyethene, termo- polymers.
- Ethane is used as a refrigerant for extremely low temperature refrigerating systems.
- Ethane is used in metallurgy for heat treatments.
- Ethane is used as a calibration gas and for combustion research.
