This report presents a cost analysis of Polymer Grade (PG) Propylene production from propane using a dehydrogenation process. The process examined is similar to CB&I Lummus CATOFIN process. In this process, the dehydrogenation reaction is carried out in a fixed-bed reactor.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:*...
More DescriptionThis report presents a cost analysis of Polymer Grade (PG) Propylene production from propane using a dehydrogenation process. The process examined is similar to CB&I Lummus CATOFIN process. In this process, the dehydrogenation reaction is carried out in a fixed-bed reactor.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) US Patent 20120014846, issued to Lummus Technology in 2012; (2) US Patent 8101541, issued to Sud-Chemie in 2012Keywords: PG Propylene, Clariant, Sud-Chemie, Propene, PDH, On-Purpose Propylene Production
