Huels SHP-CB Process

The Huels SHP-CB process can be used to selectively hydrogenate the butadiene from your crude C4 stream from a steam cracker by converting it to butene-1 and butene-2. Acetylenes and dienes are likewise hydrogenated. The butene-1 can be recovered in a Huels Butene-1 Separation process unit and used as a co-monomer for polyethylene production (LLDPE and HDPE).
