Ethylene, “The King of Petrochemicals", is the base material for many petrochemical products. Commercial goods we use every day, such as engine coolant, synthetic rubbers and PVC, are manufactured from ethylene. Ethylene is the first member of alkenes, which also includes: propylene, butylene's, and butadiene's. Ethylene is produced from Natural Gas, LPG, Naphtha or refinery oil; however, with the abundance of Shale Gas, Ethane/Propane and natural gas are the most popular feedstock in the production of Ethylene in North America. Regardless of the feedstock, the basic process for ethylene and olefin production is similar. Each ethylene plant has multiple steam furnace crackers to handle a variety of feed types. Once cracked, the effluent is quenched, compressed and prepared for fractionation into petrochemical products.
Teledyne systems provide efficient, effective and reliable support, data storage and reporting for the refining process and source emissions.

Introducing our multi-purpose gas chromatograph for use in hot side or downstream production, quality assurance and control:
The Teledyne Falcon Gas Chromatograph is a fast and superior analyzer perfect for process sampling and field testing to verify consistency of materials and processes. Fence line or exhaust Benzene or VOC monitoring can be performed continuously or on an intermittent (portable) basis. The Teledyne Falcon GC paired with an FID detector will speciate hydrocarbons in a fuel sample for determining fuel quality and heating value. The simplified modular design means that a technician can swap a column or detector and perform maintenance quickly and with minimal training.
Teledyne's Ultra-fast Gas Chromatograph is:
▶ FASTER, ▶ SMALLER, ▶ SMARTER, ▶ EASIER, ▶ GREENER
- Fast cycle times with true composition measurements suitable for composition control in near real-time
- Adaptable to many challenging applications such as purity, impurity measurements and simulated distillation
- Scrutinize data rich measurement results in the laboratory
- Portable units available for field testing
- Low power consumption
- Auto sampler and Sample splitter available
