Caprolactam Production Cost | Q3 2024

Updated Reports Examining Caprolactam Manufacturing Costs

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

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

All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q3 2024).

Caprolactam Production from Benzene

This report presents the economics of Caprolactam production from benzene located in the United States. Initially, benzene is hydrogenated to cyclohexane, which is oxidized to cyclohexanone. Then, the cyclohexanone undergoes an oximation reaction with hydroxylamine. Finally, the oxime produced is rearranged to Caprolactam.

Details: 180 kta United States-based plant   |   Q3 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue A   From $1,499 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 180 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.

Caprolactam Production from Butadiene and Hydrogen Cyanide

This feasibility study shows the economics of a Caprolactam production process from butadiene and hydrogen cyanide based on an industrial plant located in the United States. Hexamethylenediamine (HMDA) is generated as by-product in the process under analysis.

Details: 180 kta United States-based plant   |   Q3 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue B   From $1,199 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 180 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.

Caprolactam Production from Butadiene, CO, Hydrogen and Ammonia

This report presents the cost associated with a plant located in the United States producing Caprolactam from butadiene, carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and ammonia. The process under analysis involves the following steps: reaction of carbon monoxide with butadiene; hydrocarbonylation; amination and cyclization.

Details: 180 kta United States-based plant   |   Q3 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue C   From $1,499 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 180 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.

Caprolactam from Cyclohexane (Oximation with Hydroxylamine)

This report presents the economics of Caprolactam production from cyclohexane located in the United States. Initially, cyclohexane is oxidized to a cyclohexanol/cyclohexanone. Then, the cyclohexanol is hydrogenated to cyclohexanone, which is submitted to an oximation reaction with hydroxylamine. Finally, the cyclohexanone oxime produced is converted to Caprolactam by Beckmann rearrangement.

Details: 180 kta United States-based plant   |   Q3 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue D   From $1,199 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 180 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.

Caprolactam Production from Phenol

This feasibility study examines the economics of a process producing Caprolactam from phenol located in the United States. Initially, phenol is hydrogenated to form cyclohexanone. The cyclohexanone is then submitted to an oximation reaction with hydroxylamine. Finally, the cyclohexanone oxime produced is converted to caprolactam by Beckmann rearrangement.

Details: 180 kta United States-based plant   |   Q3 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue E   From $1,199 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 180 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.

Caprolactam from Cyclohexane (Photonitrozation Process)

This report concerns the production of Caprolactam from cyclohexane in the United States. This report reviews a cyclohexane photonitrozation process (PNC). Initially, cyclohexane is submitted to PNC with nitrosyl chloride. The oxime produced is then subjected to Beckmann rearrangement and Caprolactam is formed.

Details: 180 kta United States-based plant   |   Q3 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue F   From $1,499 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 180 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.

Caprolactam Production from Toluene

This study reviews the economics of a process for Caprolactam production from toluene. Initially, toluene is oxidized to benzoic acid, which is then hydrogenated to hexahydrobenzoic acid. The hexahydrobenzoic acid is reacted with nitrosyl sulfuric acid and oleum for caprolactam production. The economic analysis performed is based on a plant constructed in the United States.

Details: 180 kta United States-based plant   |   Q3 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue G   From $1,499 USD
