Propane can be used as raw material for propane dehydrogenation to produce propylene. The same is true for ethane, which is why ethylene in the Middle East is much cheaper than naphtha ethylene in my country.

1. Propane and ethane can be directly used as raw materials for the ethylene cracking unit, and the yield is higher than naphtha, diesel, etc. 2. Propane can also be directly used as a raw material for acrylonitrile and acrylic acid.
