Ethylene (IUPAC name: ethene ) is the chemical compound with the formula C 2 H 4 . It is the simplest alkene. Because it contains a carbon-carbon double bond, ethylene is called an unsaturated...

In 1999 world production capacity of ethene was 85 million tonnes per annum. This is expected to rise to 115 million tonnes by 2005, as natural gas producing countries in the Middle East and Latin America shift to value-added industries from primary production.

The first example of this is the industrial production of ethanol. This is obtained by adding a water molecule to ethene. The water molecule is split in two parts, as is one of the bonds between the two carbon atoms.

Ethene is also synthesised industrially by the thermal cracking of natural gas:- ... Production of ethene ... Ethene is also made by the removal of water from ethanol, formula CH3CH2OH. This reaction is known as an elimination reaction. A strong acid is needed as a catalyst for this reaction, which procceds as below:-

This review considers and evaluates alternative process concepts for the production of ethene on an industrial scale. A fundamental perspective is chosen, focusing on the ability to create a near-optimum conversion path from hydrocarbon (C2+) feed to ethene. ... The features of an ideal process involve a maximum olefin yield,

Lipid peroxidatlon and metabolism of intestinal bacteria, giving rise to ethene, precursor of ethylene oxide, are thus indicated to be sources of observed background hydroxyethylations.
