Journal Article
Rodgers, S., Meng, F., Poulston, S., Conradie, A., & McKechnie, J. (2022). Renewable butadiene: A case for hybrid processing via bio- and chemo-catalysis. Journal of Cleaner Production, 364, Article 132614. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclepro.2022.132614

1,3-butadiene (butadiene) is a by-product produced during naphtha steam cracking, predominantly used in tyre manufacturing. Recently, steam crackers have converted to using more cost effective, lighter feedstocks such as shale gas, yielding less buta...
