Cyclar Cyclization of Light Hydrocarbons To Aromatics
Cyclar Cyclization of Light Hydrocarbons To Aromatics : A catalytic process for converting light hydrocarbons, typically mixtures of C3 and C4 acyclic aliphatic hydrocarbons, to aromatic liquid products. Also called dehydrocyclodimerization (DHCD) because the mechanism is believed to be dehydrogenation, followed by dimerization, followed by cyclization
