Butene Production Cost | Q2 2024

Updated Reports Examining Butene Manufacturing Costs

Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Butene production costs. Each Intratec Commodity Production Cost report listed below is a comprehensive study of a specific Butene production process and related Butene production costs, covering three key aspects:

  • A complete description of the Butene production process examined
  • An in-depth analysis of the related Butene plant capital cost (Capex)
  • An evaluation of the respective Butene plant operating costs (Opex)

All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q2 2024).

Butenes Production from Ethylene

This report presents the economics of Butenes production from ethylene using a dimerization process similar to Lummus process. In the process under analysis, gasoline and fuel oil are generated as by-products. The economic analysis assumes a plant constructed in the United States.

Details: 200 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue A   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 200 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.

1-Butene Production from Ethylene

This study presents the costs associated with the construction of an industrial plant producing 1-Butene from ethylene in the United States. This study analyzes a process similar to the Axens/SABIC AlphaButol technology. In the process under analysis, ethylene is dimerized into butenes with high selectivity for 1-Butene. Gasoline (C6+ stream) is generated as by-product.

Details: 50 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue B   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 50 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.

1-Butene from Raffinate-2 (Extractive Distillation)

In this report, the economic analysis concerns a plant located in the United States, producing 1-Butene using a conventional industrial approach for extractive distillation of raffinate-2, which also generates raffinate-3 as by-product.

Details: 120 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue C   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 120 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.

Butenes Production from Propylene

This report shows the economics of Butenes production from propylene via a metathesis process. In the process examined, propylene is converted to butenes and ethylene is generated as by-product. The economic assessment assumes a plant located in the United States.

Details: 300 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue D   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 300 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.

1-Butene from Raffinate-2 (Superfractionation)

This study approaches 1-Butene production from raffinate-2 in the United States using a typical superfractionation process. Raffinate-3 is also generated as by-product in this plant.

Details: 120 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue E   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 120 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.

1-Butene from Raffinate-2 (Hydrogenation Followed by Fractionation)

This feasibility study concers 1-Butene production from raffinate-2. In this study, raffinate-2 is first subjected to a hydrogenation step before fractionation. Raffinate-3 is generated as by-product. The economic analysis is also based on a plant located in the United States.

Details: 120 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue F   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 120 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.

1-Butene from Raffinate-2 (Fractionation Followed by Isomerization)

In the process reviewed in this report, raffinate-2 is sent to a fractionation step and further subjected to an isomerization step to produce 1-Butene. The economic analysis is based on a plant located in the United States.

Details: 120 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue G   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 120 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.

1-Butene from Raffinate-2 (Adsorption)

This report presents a techno-economic analysis about 1-Butene production from raffinate-2 in the United States. In this study, a molecular sieve adsorption process similar to the UOP Sorbutene technology is used to extract 1-butene from the raffinate stream.

Details: 120 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue H   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 120 kta (kilo metric ton per annum 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.
