Butyraldehyde
Butyraldehyde
Butanal
Butyraldehyde (a.k.a. Butanal) is a saturated aliphatic aldehyde with a pungent penetrating odor, soluble in most organic solvents, such as alcohols, ethers, and benzene, but insoluble in water. Butyraldehyde is a colorless, flammable liquid and highly reactive intermediate that serves as a versatile building block for many chemical syntheses. The main process used for manufacturing Butyraldehyde consists in the hydroformilation (Oxo Synthesis) of propylene, in which it is treated with synthesis gas in the presence of a catalyst. Other processes, such as the dehydrogenation of butanol and the partial reduction of crotonaldehyde, are obsolete.

Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Butyraldehyde production costs. Each study describes an industrial plant, including main process units and site infrastructure, and presents an independent analysis of capital and operating costs. All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q2 2023).

Butyraldehyde from Propylene and Syngas (N/Iso Ratio of 30:1)

This report presents an economic analysis of n-Butyraldehyde production from propylene and syngas, assuming a plant located in the United States. The process under analysis is a propylene hydroformylation similar to the LP OXO technology jointly licensed by JM Davy and Dow, employing Selector 30 catalyst. The production ratio of n- to iso-butyraldehyde is about 30.

Details: 160 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2023   |   107 pages   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in the report Butyraldehyde E11A target a 160 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.

Butyraldehyde from Propylene and Syngas (N/Iso Ratio of 10:1)

This feasibility study approaches n-Butyraldehyde production from propylene and syngas, assuming a plant located in the United States. The process under analysis is a propylene hydroformylation similar to the LP OXO technology jointly developed by JM Davy and Union Carbide, employing Selector 10 catalyst. The production ratio of n- to iso-butyraldehyde is about 10.

Details: 160 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2023   |   107 pages   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in the report Butyraldehyde E21A target a 160 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.

Butyraldehyde from Propylene and Syngas (N/Iso Ratio of 4:1)

This report concerns the costs associated with the production of n-Butyraldehyde from propylene and syngas. The process under analysis is a propylene hydroformylation similar to the technology jointly developed by Rhodia (former Rhône-Poulenc) and Ruhrchemie. The economic analysis presented assumes a plant located in the United States.
