Abstract

See full text

A method of converting a liquid hydrocarbon stream to lower boiling point hydrocarbons includes converting the liquid hydrocarbon stream to an aerosolized hydrocarbon particle stream, introducing a charge to the aerosolized hydrocarbon particle stream to produce a charged aerosolized hydrocarbon particle stream including positively charged aerosolized hydrocarbon particles or negatively charged aerosolized hydrocarbon particles, contacting the aerosolized hydrocarbon particle stream with an aerosolized reaction catalyst, subjecting the aerosolized hydrocarbon particle stream to reaction conditions, thereby forming the lower boiling point hydrocarbons, and separating the lower boiling point hydrocarbons from the charged aerosolized hydrocarbon particle stream. The reaction conditions include a temperature of from 25° C. to 1,000° C. and a pressure of from 0 bar to 15 bar. The lower boiling point hydrocarbons includes at least C2-C4 olefins.
