Epichlorohydrin Production Costs - Q2 2023
Epichlorohydrin Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Epichlorohydrin (a.k.a. ECH, Chloromethyloxirane) is an epoxide and an organochlorine compound. It is not a halohydrin, as its name could suggest. In its pure form, epichlorohydrin is a clear, colorless liquid. The versatility conferred by the presence of both an epoxide ring and a chlorine atom explains epichlorohydrin's wide use as a chemical intermediate, allowing it to react with many types of compounds.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Epichlorohydrin 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).
Epichlorohydrin Production from Allyl Chloride
This report presents a economic analysis of Epichlorohydrin production from allyl chloride and chlorine in the United States using a typical hypochlorination process. Initially, allyl chloride is reacted with hypochlorous acid, formed by chlorine dispersion in water. The glycerol dichlorohydrins generated are then treated with calcium hydroxide to promote epoxidation, yielding ECH.
Details: 75 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report ECH E11A target a 75 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.
Epichlorohydrin from Propylene (Allyl Chloride Intermediate)
This feasibility study provides an economic analysis of Epichlorohydrin (ECH) production from propylene and chlorine in the United States. Initially, propylene is chlorinated, generating allyl chloride, which is reacted with hypochlorous acid, formed by chlorine dispersion in water. Finally, the glycerol dichlorohydrins generated are hydrolyzed with calcium hydroxide, yielding ECH.
Details: 80 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report ECH E21A 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.
Epichlorohydrin from Propylene (Allyl Alcohol Intermediate)
This study presents a techno-economic analysis of Epichlorohydrin production from propylene and chlorine in the United States. In this process, propylene is subjected to an acetoxylation reaction, followed by hydrolysis, generating allyl alcohol, which is then chlorinated, yielding glycerol dichlorohydrins. Finally, the glycerol dichlorohydrins generated are reacted with calcium hydroxide, yielding Epichlorohydrin.
Details: 110 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report ECH E22A target a 110 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.
Epichlorohydrin Production from Glycerol and Hydrogen Chloride
This study provides an economic analysis of Epichlorohydrin production from glycerol in the United States. Initially, glycerol is reacted with hydrogen chloride in a hydrochlorination reaction, generating dichlorohydrins (DCH). Then, the DCH is hydrolyzed by caustic soda, yielding epichlorohydrin (ECH).
Details: 100 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report ECH E31A target a 100 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.
Epichlorohydrin Production from Acrolein
This report provides a techno-economic study of an early stage process for Epichlorohydrin production from acrolein in the United States. The process examined is a non-commercial route based on Dow Chemical patents.
Details: 75 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 106 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report ECH E41A target a 75 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.
Epichlorohydrin Production from Glycerol and Sodium Chloride
This report presents the economics of Epichlorohydrin (ECH) production from glycerol and sodium chloride in the United States. Initially, brine is decomposed electrolytically in a membrane cell, producing chlorine, caustic soda and hydrogen. The hydrogen and chlorine react forming hydrogen chloride (HCl). Finally, glycerol is reacted with HCl, generating dichlorohydrins (DCH), which are hydrolyzed to ECH by the caustic soda.
Details: 100 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 106 pages From $1,499 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report ECH E51A target a 100 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.
