JNTUK B.Tech Petrochemical Engineering-II gives you detail information of Petrochemical Engineering-II R13 syllabus It will be help full to understand you complete curriculum of the year.
Learning Objectives
Basic concepts of process engineering and production technologies involved in industrial petrochemical processes will be taught to make the students to study understand and appreciate
- Various processes and production steps involved for producing propylene from various refinery streams.
- Different processes and production steps involved in processing C4 and C5 chemicals and aromatics.
- Various processes and production steps involved in producing polymers, elastomers and thermosetting resins, synthetic fibres and various environmental management aspects involved in petrochemical industries.
UNIT-I: Propylene and Its Derivatives: Propylene recovery from fluid catalytic cracking-Propane dehydrogenation, Metathesis-Dehydration of paraffins. Propylene converted to Propylene oxide–Propylene glycol–Propylene glycol monoethyl ether– Isopropyl alcohol–Acetone–Acrylonitrile–Acetonitrile-Methyl methacrylate– Acrylic acid– Acrlamide- butyraldehydes -2-Ethyl hexanol –Methyl iso butyl ketone– Cumene.
UNIT-II: Chemicals from C4: Butadiene–1-Butene,–Butene-2,-Isobutylene–n-Butene–Octenes–1,4- Butanediol. Chemicals from C5: Chloroprene–Isoprene – Cyclopentadiene and decyclopentadiene Aromatics- BTX Derivatives: Benzene, Toluene, Orthoxylene- Metaxylene- Paraxylene-Ethyl benzene and styrene–Phthalic anhydride– Maleic anhydride – Dimethylterphthalate- Terphthalic acid- Cyclohexane-Linear alkyl benzene–Phenol–– Nitrobenzene and aniline – Benezoic acid- Bisphenol–A.
UNIT-III: Polymers, Elastomers and Polyurethanes-I: Characteristics of polymers–Classification of polymers–Polymerization reactions–polymerization reactors – polyethylene – Polypropylene– Polyvinyl chloride–Polystyrene – Epoxy resins– Polycarbonates.
UNIT-IV: Thermosettling resins, Elastomers and Polyurethanes-II: Phenol-Formaldehyde, Urea and melamine-Formaldehyde-Polyurethane. Classification of rubbers (Elastomer)-acrylonitrile- Butadiene styrene (ABS), Polybutadiene, Nitrile rubber-Butyl rubber (Teflon)- Polytetrafluoroethylene-Ethylene vinyl acetate-Polymethylmethacrylate.
UNIT-V: Synthetic Fibres: Cyclohexane– Caprolactam – Adipic acid –Adiponitrile– Hexamethylenediamene –Polyester fibre (Polyethylene terephthalate)–Nylon 66–Nylon 6– Acrylic fibres.
UNIT-VI: Environmental Management in Petrochemical Industries: Environmental Pollution Control: Acts, Regulations and Standards-Environmental Pollution in Petroleum and Petrochemical Industry-Environmental Impact Assessment-Corrosion and Its Control.
