A gas cracker device splits the molecule at a rate much greater than that normally found in nature.
In science and industry, gas crackers are used to separate two or more elements in a molecule.
Petrochemicals are usually manufactured in large scale from petroleum feed stocks using fluid catalytic cracking.
Thus natural gas is one of the most wanted feed stocks for petrochemicals production.
The thermal cracking of natural gas proceeds at very high temperature resulting in olefins (Mostly ethylene/propylene).
