This document summarizes the ethylene from ethanol production process. It involves the catalytic cracking of ethanol over γ-alumina catalyst at temperatures between 590-752°F and a pressure of 585 psi to produce ethylene (98% conversion rate) and byproducts like diethyl ether, methane, acetic acid, and water. The process uses fixed-bed reactors in series with a total reactor volume of 790 ft3 and produces 3000 tons of ethylene over 18 hours with 99.96% purity.
