Zusammenfassung:Processes for upgrading a hydrocarbon for a predetermined period of time. The process can include determining an amount of one or more contaminant-containing compositions that will be present in a pyrolysis effluent based, at least in part, on a composition of a hydrocarbon feed to be steam cracked, a. temperature the hydrocarbon feed will be heated at during steam cracking, a residence time the hydrocarbon feed will be heated at the temperature during steam cracking, or a combination thereof. In some examples, the process can also include taking one or more steps to allow the hydrocarbon feed to be steam cracked for at least as long as a predetermined, period of time, such as controlling process conditions within one or more separation stages to favor certain product compositions and/or introducing a predetermined amount of one or more materials into various locations of the process, or any combination thereof.
