Acetic Anhydride Production Costs - Q2 2023
Acetic Anhydride Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Acetic Anhydride (a.k.a. Ethanoic Anhydride, Acetyl Oxide, Acetic Oxide) is a colorless liquid with an odor that resembles acetic acid. Figuring among the most produced carboxylic acid anhydrides, Acetic Anhydride is a major organic intermediate with an important role in many chemical reactions, like acetylations, production of other acid anhydrides, hydrolysis to produce acetic acid and many others. It is widely used as a solvent for chemical analyses as well.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Acetic Anhydride 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).
Acetic Anhydride Production from Acetic Acid
This report presents the economics of Acetic Anhydride production from acetic acid in the United States via a ketene process. In the process, acetic acid is first dehydrated to ketene using triethylphosphate as catalyst in a cracking furnace. Ketene reacts with acetic acid in a series of scrubbers, producing Acetic Anhydride.
Details: 120 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Acetic Anhydride 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.
Acetic Anhydride Production from Acetic Acid and Acetone
This feasibility study reviews the Acetic Anhydride production from acetone and acetic acid. Initially, acetone is converted to ketene via pyrolysis. Then, the ketene is absorbed in acetic acid to produce acetic anhydride. The economic analysis presented assumes a plant located in the United States.
