ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Product</h6> <p><b>Formalin</b>. Formaldehyde is a colorless, strong-smelling gas remarkably versatile as a chemical intermediate - it is widely used for the production of resins and coatings employed in the manufacture of building materials and household products. Since the pure gas slowly polymerizes at temperatures lower than 80°C, formaldehyde is usually available as a liquid solution in water with small amounts of methanol. This solution is called formalin. Most of world's formalin is commercially manufactured from methanol and air in the presence of a silver (or a metal oxide) catalyst.</p> <h6>Raw Material</h6> <p><b>Methanol</b>. Methanol is one of the most important chemical raw materials, used as a solvent, starting material in the production of chemicals and in the fuel sector. Currently, more than 95% of commercial methanol is synthetically produced from synthesis gas, or syngas, which is a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. </p>

Formaldehyde from Methanol (Silver Catalyst and Methanol Recycle)

This report presents a techno-economic study of Formalin (37wt% aqueous solution of Formaldehyde) production from methanol in the United States by oxidation-dehydrogenation using a silver-catalyzed reaction at conditions that prioritize selectivity over conversion. In this case, unconverted methanol is recycled.

Details: 60 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue A   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 60 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.

Formaldehyde from Methanol (Silver Catalyst and Full Conversion)

This report presents a techno-economic study of Formalin (37wt% aqueous solution of Formaldehyde) production from methanol in the United States. The oxidation-dehydrogenation uses a silver-catalyzed reaction at conditions that prioritize full methanol conversion. In this case, methanol recovery is unnecessary.
