Hexane Production Costs - Q2 2023
Hexane Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Hexane is an unbranched alkane. It is a colorless, non-polar liquid, with a petroleum-like odor. It is considered a neurotoxin, leading to effects in the human body, such as vertigo, drowsiness, fatigue, loss of appetite, muscle weakness, cold pulsation in the extremities, blurred vision, headache and anorexia. Hexane is a product of crude oil refining, being obtained in the fraction boiling at 65-70 °C. Like most alkanes, Hexane exhibits low reactivity and is a suitable solvent for reactive compounds. It is also used for the extraction of vegetable oils and in adhesive formulations.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Hexane 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).
Hexane Production
This report presents the economics of Hexane production from crude glycerol in the United States. In this process, crude glycerol is reformed in aqueous phase, generating a range of hydrocarbons and oxygenated compounds, including Hexane. Part of these compounds undergoes aldol condensation and hydrodeoxygenation, raising Hexane yield.
