Analysis Basis: United States | 2018 Q1 | 51 pages | Online Viewable Report Delivered in PDF Format

This report presents an up-to-date, detailed cost analysis (based on 2017/18 economic data) 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.

The economic analysis provided in the report targets a United States-based plant and discloses:

All costs involved in starting a new industrial plant (capital investment):
- Cost of construction:
  - Main process units
  - Surrounding infrastructure
  - Contingency
- Additional owner’s costs
- Working capital
- Plant commissioning and start-up
All costs surrounding the production of 2-Ethylhexanol:
- Raw materials acquisition & utilities generation (manufacturing variable costs)
- Labor wages, maintenance, operating charges, overhead, taxes and insurance (manufacturing fixed costs)
- Administration, research and product distribution (corporate overhead costs)
Relevant technical coefficients:
- Raw materials consumption & products generation
- Labor requirements
