Frost & Sullivan: Systemic Approach toFrost & Sullivan: Systemic Approach to R&D Portfolio Management Crucial for Advancements in C4/C5 Processing PR Newswire MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, Oct. 15, 2013 - Partnerships and joint ventures will strengthen sustainable technology development The steady depletion of crude oil has necessitated the maximum utilization of refinery feedstock and escalated the demand for new, cost-effective C4/C5 processing technologies. Hence, a robust research and development (R&D) portfolio is an essential cog in the development of sustainable C4/C5 processing solutions. New analysis from Frost & Sullivan's (http://www.technicalinsights.frost.com), Technological Breakthroughs in C4/C5 Processing research, finds that modification of a technology or process, the creation of efficient, low-cost catalysts that can be regenerated, or the innovation of a unique route of olefin conversion is essential to bring down the cost of final hydrocarbon products in C4/C5 processing.
