2-Propylheptanol Production Costs - Q2 2023
2-Propylheptanol Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
2-Propylheptanol (a.k.a. 2-PH, 2-Propylheptyl alcohol) is a branched fatty alcohol, primarily used in the production of plasticizers and surfactants applied in detergents or industrial cleaning agents, and in the manufacture of lubricants and acrylates in adhesives applications. This fatty alcohol is produced on commercial scale mainly by OXO synthesis, followed by aldol condensation and hydrogenation steps.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining 2-Propylheptanol 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).
2-Propylheptanol Production from Butenes and Syngas
This report presents the economics of 2-Propylheptanol (2-PH) production from butenes and syngas located in the United States. Initially, butenes react with syngas in a hydroformylation reaction, yielding n-valeraldehyde. This step uses a conventional OXO-alcohol technology. Then, the valeraldehyde is submitted to an aldolization, forming 2-Propyl-2-heptenal and water. Finally, the 2-Propyl-2-heptenal is hydrogenated, yielding 2-PH.
Details: 120 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report 2-PH E11A target a 120 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.
2-Propylheptanol Production from Valeraldehyde
This report presents the economics of 2-Propylheptanol (2-PH) production from n-valeraldehyde in the United States. In this process, the valeraldehyde feed is first submitted to an aldolization reaction, catalyzed by sodium hydroxide, which converts two molecules of valeraldehyde into 2-Propyl-2-heptenal and water. Then, the 2-Propyl-2-heptenal is hydrogenated, yielding 2-PH.

2-Ethylhexanol Production from Propylene and Syngas
This report presents the economics of 2-Ethylhexanol (2-EH) production from propylene and syngas located in the United States. Initially, propylene reacts with syngas in a hydroformylation reaction, yielding n-butyraldehyde. This step uses a conventional OXO-alcohol technology. Then, the n-butyraldehyde is submitted to an aldolization, and is subsequently dehydrated to 2-ethylpropylacrolein (EPA). Finally, the EPA is hydrogenated, yielding 2-EH.

The cost analyses presented in the report 2-EH 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.
Isodecanol Production
This report presents the economics of Isodecanol production from nonenes in a typical industrial process based on cobalt catalyst. Initially, nonenes are submitted to hydroformylation to form the respectives C10 aldehydes. The aldehydes are then hydrogenated to the corresponding C10 alcohols. The industrial plant is located in the United States.
