Hydroxymethylfurfural Production Costs - Q2 2023
Hydroxymethylfurfural Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Hydroxymethylfurfural (a.k.a. HMF) is a commodity whose molecule is formed by a furan ring containing aldehyde and alcohol functional groups. This chemical has high potential to be used as a building block for biorefinery industries in the production of specialty chemicals, polymers and fuels. Also, its derivatives can be used as chemical intermediates.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Hydroxymethylfurfural 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).
Hydroxymethylfurfural Production
This report presents the economics of Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) production from glucose syrup. In the process examined, glucose is enzymatically isomerized into fructose. It is then dehydrated in the presence of n-butanol, yielding HMF. The economic analysis performed assumes a plant located in the United States.
Details: 65 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 111 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report HMF E11A target a 65 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.

Dimethylfuran Production
This report provides a techno-economic analysis of Dimethylfuran (DMF) production from glucose syrup in the United States. In this process, glucose is isomerized to fructose, which is dehydrated forming hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) intermediate. Then, HMF is converted to DMF.
Details: 30 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report DMF E11A target a 30 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.
FDCA Production from Glucose
This report presents the economics of 2,5-Furandicarboxylic Acid (FDCA) production from glucose syrup via a furan process similar to Avantium YXY technology. Initially, glucose is enzymatically isomerized into fructose, which is dehydrated in the presence of methanol, yielding methoxymethylfurfural (MMF). Finally, MMF is oxidized to FDCA. The economic analysis assumes a plant constructed in the United States.
Details: 270 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report FDCA E11A target a 270 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.
Invert Sugar Production
This report presents the economics of Invert Sugar Syrup production from raw sugar (sucrose) using a process similar to the European Sugar Holdings S.A.R.L. technology. In the process under analysis, raw sugar is diluted and sucrose is hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugar). This inversion reaction occurs in an ion-exchange resin bed. The economic analysis presented is based on a plant constructed in Germany
Details: 585 kta Germany-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Invert Sugar E11B target a 585 kta (kilometric tons per annum) Germany-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
