Download or read book Polyethylene Furanoate Production Cost Analysis PEF E11A written by Intratec and published by Intratec Solutions. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Polyethylene Furanoate (PEF) production from monoethylene glycol (MEG) and 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA). In this process, FDCA and MEG are polymerized to PEF in two polymerization steps in order to obtain Bottle-Grade PEF: melt-phase polymerization and solid-state polymerization. This report examines one-time costs associated with the construction of a United States-based plant and the continuing costs associated with the daily operation of such a plant. More specifically, it discusses: * Capital Investment, broken down by: - Total fixed capital required, divided in production unit (ISBL); infrastructure (OSBL) and contingency - Alternative perspective on the total fixed capital, divided in direct costs, indirect costs and contingency - Working capital and costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up * Production cost, broken down by: - Manufacturing variable costs (raw materials, utilities) - Manufacturing fixed costs (maintenance costs, operating charges, plant overhead, local taxes and insurance) - Depreciation and corporate overhead costs * Raw materials consumption, products generation and labor requirements * Process block flow diagram and description of industrial site installations (production unit and infrastructure) This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) WO Patent 2015137807, issued to Furanix Technologies in 2015; (2) US Patent 6749821 issued to UOP in 2004 Keywords: Polyethylene Furanoate, Polyethylene 2,5-Furandicarboxylate, PEF, Green PEF, FDCA, MEG

This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Polyethylene Furanoate (PEF) production starting from glucose and monoethylene glycol (MEG). The process examined is similar to the Avantium YXY process, followed by a process that copolymerizes FDCA and MEG. In this process, a 70 wt% glucose-water syrup feed is isomerized to fructose. Then, fructose is converted to methoxy methyl furan (MMF) intermediate, which is oxidized to FDCA. This process generates methyl acetate and methyl levulinate as by-products. The FDCA generated and MEG are polymerized to PEF in two polymerization steps in order to obtain Bottle-Grade PEF. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) US Patent 8519167, issued to Furanix Technologies B.V. in 2013 (2) US Patent 20160024039, issued to Furanix Technologies B.V. in 2016 (3) WO Patent 2015137807, issued to Furanix Technologies in 2015 Keywords: Polyethylene Furanoate, PEF, Green FDCA, Hydroxyl Methyl Furfural, HMF, Purified Terephthalic Acid, Polyethylene 2,5-Furandicarboxylate, MEG

Download or read book Polyethylene Terephthalate Production Process Cost Analysis PET E11A written by Intratec and published by Intratec Solutions. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) production from ethylene glycol and purified terephthalic acid (PTA). The process examined is a typical melt-phase polymerization followed by solid-state polymerization. In this process, initially an oligomer intermediate is produced by the esterification of PTA with ethylene glycol. The oligomer then undergoes a melt-polymerization and a solid-state polymerization, leading to a bottle grade PET.

This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Polyethylene Furanoate (PEF) production starting from raw sugar and monoethylene glycol (MEG). The process examined is similar to the Avantium YXY process, followed by a process that copolymerizes FDCA and MEG. In this process, a raw sugar (sucrose) is inverted to glucose and fructose. The glucose is isomerized to fructose. Then, fructose is converted to methoxy methyl furan (MMF) intermediate, which is oxidized to FDCA. This process generates methyl acetate and methyl levulinate as by-products. The FDCA generated and MEG are polymerized to PEF in two polymerization steps in order to obtain Bottle-Grade PEF. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) US Patent 8519167, issued to Furanix Technologies B.V. in 2013 (2) US Patent 20160024039, issued to Furanix Technologies B.V. in 2016 (3) WO Patent 2015137807, issued to Furanix Technologies in 2015 Keywords: Polyethylene Furanoate, PEF, Green FDCA, Hydroxyl Methyl Furfural, HMF, Purified Terephthalic Acid, Polyethylene 2,5-Furandicarboxylate, MEG

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of 2,5-Furandicarboxylic Acid (FDCA) production from glucose syrup via the furan pathway. The process examined is similar to the Avantium YXY process, which is being scaled up to become a commercial process. In this process, glucose is isomerized to fructose. Then, fructose is converted to methoxy methyl furan (MMF) intermediate, which is oxidized to FDCA. The process uses a 70 wt% glucose-water syrup as raw material and generates methyl acetate and methyl levulinate as by-products.
