Isopropanol Production Costs - Q4 2022
Isopropanol Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Isopropanol (a.k.a. Isopropyl Alcohol, 2-Propanol) is a colorless and flammable liquid with a strong odor. Isopropyl alcohol was among the first petrochemical products to be industrially manufactured - it has been produced since 1920. At this time, Isopropanol was generated through the indirect hydration of propylene, a process that uses sulfuric acid to react with propylene and generate a compound that will react with water to produce Isopropanol. Today, it is one of the most produced lower alcohols (C1 to C5 alcohols), the third in commercial production, behind methanol and ethanol.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Isopropanol 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 (Q4 2022).
Isopropyl Alcohol Production from RG Propylene
This report presents the economics of Isopropyl Alcohol production from refinery grade (RG) propylene via a typical indirect propylene hydration process. In this process, RG propylene reacts with sulfuric acid to form isopropyl alcohol sulfates. Those sulfates are then reacted with water to form Isopropanol. The study assumes a plant located in the United States.
Details: 200 kta United States-based plant | Q4 2022 | 106 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Isopropanol E11A target a 200 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.
Isopropyl Alcohol Production from PG Propylene
This report approaches the economics of Isopropyl Alcohol production from Polymer Grade (PG) Propylene. This study is based on a plant located in the United States. Isopropyl Alcohol is obtained via a typical direct propylene hydration process which is carried out in the vapour phase using phosphoric acid on silica as catalyst.
Details: 200 kta United States-based plant | Q4 2022 | 106 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Isopropanol E21A target a 200 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.
Isopropyl Alcohol Production from Acetone
In this report, it is approached the economics of Isopropyl Alcohol production from acetone in a typical acetone hydrogenation process, also assuming an industrial plant located in the United States. The reaction is carried out in liquid phase, in two fixed bed reactors in series, catalyzed by a Raney nickel catalyst.
Details: 60 kta United States-based plant | Q4 2022 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Isopropanol E31A target a 60 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.
Isopropyl Alcohol Production from Propane
This report presents an economic analysis of an integrated unit for producing Isopropyl Alcohol from propane in the United States. In a first unit, propane is converted to propylene via propane dehydrogenation. The propylene obtained is then converted to Isopropyl Alcohol via vapor phase hydration over a catalytic bed of phosphoric acid on silica.
