The present invention relates to a low emission process (100) for producing olefins by vapor cracking using one or more tubular reactors (10, 10a-10c). It is envisaged that the tubular reactor (10, 10a) or at least one of the tube reactors (10, 10a-10c) will be heated both by using combustion heat generated by burning at least one fuel and by using electrical heat generated by electrical energy A corresponding plant for reduced-emission production of olefins by vapor cracking is also the subject of the invention. |
