Download or read book Styrene Production from Methanol Toluene Cost Analysis Styrene E41A written by Intratec and published by Intratec. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Styrene production from methanol and toluene. The process examined is similar to Exelus Styrene Monomer Technology (ExSyM). In this process, toluene undergoes an alkylation reaction with methanol to produce Styrene. Ethylbenzene is also generated as by-product. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Styrene Monomer, Methanol, Toluene Alkylation, Exelus, ExSyM, SM

Download or read book Styrene Production from Ethane Benzene Cost Analysis Styrene E31A written by Intratec and published by Intratec. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Styrene production from ethane and benzene. The process examined is based on concepts proposed in patents issued to Dow and Snamprogetti. In this process, ethylbenzene (EB) is first generated from benzene feedstock and recycled ethylene. Then, fresh ethane and the EB are fed to a dehydrogenation reactor to simultaneously form ethylene, which is recycled, and Styrene as final product. Pure hydrogen is also generated as by-product. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Styrene Monomer, SM, Ethylbenzene, Ethylene, Benzene, Alkylation, Dow, Snamprogetti

Download or read book Styrene Production from Propylene Ethylbenzene Cost Analysis Styrene E21A written by Intratec and published by Intratec. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Styrene production from chemical grade (CG) propylene and ethylbenzene. The process examined is a propylene oxide/styrene monomer (POSM) process similar to LyondellBasell technology. In this process, ethylbenzene is oxidized to produce ethylbenzene hydroperoxide, which reacts with propylene to produce Styrene and propylene oxide products. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): "Propylene Oxide", Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition Keywords: Propene, Ethylbenzol, Oxidation, Epoxidation, EBHP, Phenylethene, POSM

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Styrene production from ethane and benzene. The process examined was based on concepts proposed in patents issued to Dow and Snamprogetti. In this process, ethylbenzene (EB) is first generated from benzene raw material and recycled ethylene. Then, fresh ethane and the EB are fed to a dehydrogenation reactor to simultaneously form ethylene, which is recycled, and Styrene as final product. Hydrogen generated is valued as fuel.

Download or read book Design of a Chemical Plant for the Production of 40 000 Tons yr Styrene written by Amna Fahim and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Styrene monomer can be produced with the aid of various processes such as the catalytic dehyrogenation of ethyl benzene, oxidation of ethyl benzene and side-chain alkylation of toluene with methanol. These three processes were considered for commercial production among many other processes that are used to produce styrene. This project , however, focused on the catalytic dehydrogenation of ethyl benzene to produce styrene, since the latter is produced mostly using this method. In short, the aim of this project is to design a chemical plant for the production of styrene at a capacity of 40, 000 tons/year or equivalently 47.84 kmol/hour. This report gives a brief background on styrene, along with its uses, properties and different methods used to produce the monomer. In addition, it covers the process selection along with a detailed process flow diagram developed for the production. Material and Energy [sic] balances were performed for all different processes and corresponding units involved included in the plant. Detailed design calculations of the major equipment used were done, and a profitability analysis of the plant was conducted to know if the proposed design is economically feasible or not. The total manufacturing cost was calculated to be 77.8 Million [sic] dollars and the payback period was found to be 6 years. A Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) study was also conducted to address the safety of the various processes and their environmental impact. Throughout this project, several programs were used that included the use of Microsoft Excel in performing calculations for the energy balances, detailed design calculations and the profitability analysis. Aspen HYSYS was used to check the design of the three -phase separator, and Polymath software was used in the design of the isothermal packed bed reactor.
