Download or read book Propylene Production from Methanol via MTP Process Cost Analysis Propylene E41A written by Intratec and published by Intratec Solutions. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Polymer Grade (PG) Propylene production from methanol using a methanol-to-propylene (MTP) process. The process examined is similar to Lurgi MTP process. This process is carried out in two steps: first, methanol is converted to dimethyl ether (DME), and then DME is converted to Propylene. Gasoline is also generated as by-product in the process. 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): US Patent 20100063337, issued to Lurgi in 2010 Keywords: PG Propylene, Methyl Alcohol, Propene, On-Purpose Propylene Production

This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Polymer Grade (PG) Propylene production from methanol using a methanol-to-olefins (MTO) process The process examined is similar to UOP/Norsk Hydro (now Ineos) MTO process. In this process, methanol is converted to light olefins. Besides Propylene, polymer grade ethylene is also generated as co-product in the process. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Funk, G.A., et al., "A Different Game Plan", Hydrocarbon Engineering, December 2013.

This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a free full sample report offered by Intratec Solutions to demonstrate, in advance, the type of information you will get when you buy one of our reports, offering the same standard and structure (types of graphs, tables and descriptions) that you will find in all of our Cost Analysis Overview reports. This report presents alternatives for producing PG Propylene from different feedstocks and a cost comparison of these alternatives, across different countries. More specifically, the report compares the costs of PG Propylene production through the following pathways: * Pathway 1: Propylene Production from Light Naphtha * Pathway 2: Propylene Production from Ethylene and Butenes * Pathway 3: Propylene Production from Propane (with Hydrogen Generation) Pathway 1 corresponds to a steam cracker for Propylene production (ethylene as co-product). In Pathway 2, Propylene is produced via metathesis reaction of ethylene with 2-butene (present in raffinate-2 feedstock). In Pathway 3, propane is dehydrogenated to Propylene with hydrogen generated being valued as fuel. The analysis presented in this report includes: * A comparison of the economic potential of the pathways listed above in several countries, comprising: - Comparative analysis of capital costs - Comparative analysis of production costs * Comparison between product price and raw materials costs of each pathway - An overview of each production pathway, including: - Raw material(s) consumption figures and product(s) generated - Related technology licensors and block flow diagram of representative industrial processes Keywords: Propene, Ethene, Steam Cracking, PDH, Propane Dehydrogenation, Olefins Conversion Technology, OCT
