Zusammenfassung:A process is provided for separation of light olefins and paraffins and particular for the separation of propylene and propane comprising sending at least one olefin/paraffin stream to a distillation column (20, 54) and a membrane unit (12, 64) to produce an olefin stream comprising at least 92 mol% olefin. In an embodiment of the invention where the membrane unit (12, 64) is placed downstream from the column which can produce propylene streams at polymer grade of over 99.5 mol% propylene. The most suitable drawing: FIG. 1.
