ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Product</h6> <p><b>2-Ethylhexanol</b>. 2-Ethylhexanol (also known as 2-EH) is an eight-carbon branched chain alcohol. It is one of the most important oxo alcohols sold in commerce, widely used in the production of emollients and plasticizers. The production on commercial scale of this alcohol is based on the aldol condensation of n-butyraldehyde (n-butanal) and the hydrogenation of the hydroxyaldehyde formed. In fact, 2-EH is commonly produced in integrated complexes based on OXO processes, where n-butanal is first obtained by hydroformylation of propylene, and then converted into the aldol, dehydrated and hydrogenated to 2-ethylhexanol; n-butanol and isobutanol can also be produced.</p> <h6>Raw Materials</h6> <p><b>Hydrogen</b>. The hydrogen molecule, H2, is the normal state of pure hydrogen, even though hydrogen can be found in its atomic form under specific conditions. It is a very stable molecule, not usually reactive under normal conditions. Essentially, molecular hydrogen is produced industrially by three different methods: hydrocarbons steam reforming, hydrocarbons partial oxidation and water electrolysis. Hydrogen can also be obtained as a by-product recovered in processes such as the manufacture of styrene from ethylbenzene.</p> <b>n-Butyraldehyde</b>. n-Butyraldehyde is an organic compound used as an intermediate in the production of plasticizers, solvents, and rubber accelerators. It is prized for its ability to undergo further reactions in chemical synthesis. n-Butyraldehyde is produced via the hydroformylation of propylene and stored as a liquid. Its reactivity and use in producing chemicals for plastics and rubber make it valuable to the chemical industry.</p>

2-Ethylhexanol Production from Propylene and Syngas

This report presents the economics of 2-Ethylhexanol (2-EH) production from propylene and syngas located in the United States. Initially, propylene reacts with syngas in a hydroformylation reaction, yielding n-butyraldehyde. This step uses a conventional OXO-alcohol technology. Then, the n-butyraldehyde is submitted to an aldolization, and is subsequently dehydrated to 2-ethylpropylacrolein (EPA). Finally, the EPA is hydrogenated, yielding 2-EH.
