Report Abstract
This report analyses the economics of Acrylamide production from acrylonitrile via an enzymatic hydration process in the United States.
The report provides a comprehensive study of Acrylamide production and related Acrylamide production cost, covering three key aspects: a complete description of the Acrylamide production process examined; an in-depth analysis of the related Acrylamide plant capital cost (Capex); and an evaluation of the respective Acrylamide plant operating costs (Opex).
The Acrylamide production process description includes a block flow diagram (BFD), an overview of the industrial site installations, detailing both the process unit and the necessary infrastructure, process consumption figures and comprehensive process flow diagrams (PFD). The Acrylamide plant capital cost analysis breaks down the Capex by plant cost (i.e., ISBL, OSBL and Contingency); owner's cost; working capital; and costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up. The Acrylamide plant operating costs analysis covers operating expenses, including variable costs like raw materials and utilities, and fixed costs such as maintenance, labor, and depreciation.
Process Overview
Product
Acrylamide. Acrylamide is a chemical used to produce polyacrylamide polymers, serving as flocculants in water treatment and additives in the paper and mining industries. It enhances particle aggregation for improved solid-liquid separation. Acrylamide is produced by the hydration of acrylonitrile and is stored as a solid or aqueous solution. Its applications extend to soil conditioning and enhanced oil recovery due to its viscosity-modifying properties.
Raw Material
Acrylonitrile. Acrylonitrile is a molecule having a carbon-carbon double bond conjugated with a nitrile group. It is a very reactive compound, since it is polar (due to the presence of the nitrogen heteroatom) and unsaturated. Currently, acrylonitrile is mainly produced by the ammoxidation of propylene and by the ammoxidation of propane. Both processes generate acetonitrile and hydrogen cyanide as by-products. As a highly reactive chemical, acrylonitrile serves as an intermediate to produce a range of chemicals, including antioxidants, pharmaceuticals and especially polymers. Due to the possibility of spontaneous polymerization in the presence of strong alkali or when exposed to light, high-purity acrylonitrile product must be stored or transported with polymerization inhibitors. Storage tanks or containers may be constructed with carbon or stainless steel.
