Acrolein Production From Propylene Cost Analysis Acrolein E11a

This report presents a cost analysis of Acrolein production from propylene. In this typical process, propylene is oxidized with air, producing acrolein. Acrylic acid Diethylene glycol (DEG) and triethylene glycol (TEG) are also generated as by-products in the process. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Propenal, Acrylic Aldehyde, Oxidation, Propene

This report presents a cost analysis of Methional production from acrolein and methyl mercaptan. In the process examined, Methional is produced by the reaction of acrolein with methyl mercaptan. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: MMP, Methanethiol, MeSH

This report presents a cost analysis of Acrylonitrile production from chemical grade (CG) propylene The process examined is a fluidized bed propylene ammoxidation process. In this process, propylene and ammonia react to produce Acrylonitrile. Acetonitrile and hydrogen cyanide are generated as by-products. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): "Acrylonitrile", Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 5th edition Keywords: Propene, Propenenitrile, INEOS, Sohio, Fluidized Bed Reactor

This report presents a cost analysis of Ester-Grade Acrylic Acid (EAA) production from chemical grade (CG) propylene The process examined is a typical propylene oxidation. In this process, propylene passes through a two-stage vapor phase oxidation to generate an acrylic acid-containing gas, from which acrylic acid is recovered via absorption in water. The aqueous acrylic acid solution is purified via light solvent extraction to Ester-grade Acrylic Acid (EAA), which is used in the production of acrylic esters. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): "Acrylic Acid", Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition Keywords: Propene, Air Oxidation, Propenoic Acid, Nippon Shokubai, Rohm & Haas, Dow

This report presents a cost analysis of 2-Ethylhexanol (2-EH) production from propylene and syngas. The process examined is similar to the LP OXO Selector technology jointly licensed by JM Davy and Dow. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) "OXO Synthesis", Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition (2) US Patent 5001274 issued to Union Carbide (now Dow Chemical Company) in 1991 (3) WO1993020034 issued to Davy (now subsidiary of Johnson Matthey) in 1993 Keywords: oxo alcohol, oxo process

This report presents a cost analysis of DL-Methionine production from methional and hydrogen cyanide (HCN). The process examined is a typical carbonate process. This process is a multi-step process including: hydantoin intermediate production; reaction of hydantoin with potassium carbonate to produce potassium methioninate; and methioninate conversion to DL-Methionine. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): US Patent 20130231501, issued to Evonik in 2013 Keywords: DLM, 3-Methylmercapto Propionaldehyde, MMP, Methional, Essential Amino Acid, Degussa

This practical how-to-do book deals with the design of sustainable chemical processes by means of systematic methods aided by computer simulation. Ample case studies illustrate generic creative issues, as well as the efficient use of simulation techniques, with each one standing for an important issue taken from practice. The didactic approach guides readers from basic knowledge to mastering complex flow-sheets, starting with chemistry and thermodynamics, via process synthesis, efficient use of energy and waste minimization, right up to plant-wide control and process dynamics. The simulation results are compared with flow-sheets and performance indices of actual industrial licensed processes, while the complete input data for all the case studies is also provided, allowing readers to reproduce the results with their own simulators. For everyone interested in the design of innovative chemical processes.
