Acetone Production Costs - Q2 2023
Acetone Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Acetone (a.k.a. Propanone, Dimethyl Ketone) is a colorless, volatile, flammable liquid with a characteristic odor and it is miscible with water and most organic solvents. It is the simplest and most important of the ketones. Acetone occurs naturally in forests and as breakdown product of animal metabolism. Propanone was first produced by alchemists between the 13th and 15th century; however, its formula was only discovered in 1833, with industrial production beginning in 1999.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Acetone 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).
Acetone Production from Propylene (Two-Step Process)
This report presents the economics of a two-step process for Acetone production from propylene in the United States. In the process examined, propylene is hydrated in a catalytic reactor, producing isopropanol. Then, isopropanol is dehydrogenated in a fixed bed catalyst reactor to produce Acetone.
Details: 200 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Acetone E11A target a 200 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.
Acetone Production from Propylene (Single-Step Process)
This report approaches the economics of Acetone production from propylene in the United States. In the process examined, a direct propylene oxidation is carried out in the presence of palladium chloride and copper chloride, yielding Acetone.
Details: 80 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $999 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Acetone E12A target a 80 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.
Acetone Production from Isopropanol
This feasibility study presents the economics of Acetone production from isopropanol using a liquid phase dehydrogenation process. The economic analysis presented in the study assumes a plant located in the United States.
Details: 30 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $999 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Acetone E21A target a 30 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.
