Butadiene is a critical monomer for synthetic rubber and high-performance polymers. Petron’s ethanol-to-butadiene technology, a newer development in the portfolio, offers a renewable route to butadiene from the same ethanol platform.
Petron’s solution & differentiators
A developing ethanol-to-butadiene process that produces renewable butadiene from bioethanol, a drop-in replacement for the fossil-based product, extending the platform into elastomers and specialty polymers.
Applicable feedstocks & products
Bioethanol into renewable butadiene.
Commercial maturity
In development, part of Petron’s new-technology pipeline.
