    Abstract: A process for producing ethylene by oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane using a shell-and-tube reactor having reaction tubes extending between a first end and a second end includes disposing one or more catalyst beds in each of the reaction tubes. In each of the reaction tubes, a ratio of a total length of the one or more catalyst beds between the first end and the second end to a diameter of each of the reaction tubes has a value between 150 and 400. The shell-and-tube reactor is operated at a linear velocity of 250 to 800 cm/s, and the one or more catalyst beds are configured such that a ratio of active catalyst mass to effective cooling area is in a range between 1.5 and 5 kg/m2.

    Abstract: A method of steam cracking using a steam cracking system includes a first steam cracking furnace unit or a plurality of first steam cracking furnace units and a second steam cracking furnace unit or a plurality of second steam cracking furnace units. The first steam cracking furnace unit or each of the plurality of first steam cracking furnace units comprises one or more fired steam cracking furnaces. The second steam cracking furnace unit or each of the plurality of second steam cracking furnace units comprises one or more electric steam cracking furnaces. The first steam cracking furnace unit or each of the plurality of first steam cracking furnace units further includes means for preheating at least a part of combustion air provided to its fired steam cracking furnace or furnaces to a temperature level of at least 100° C.
