Laurolactam Production Costs - Q2 2023
Laurolactam Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Laurolactam is a lactam with the chemical formula C12H23NO. It is the monomer used in the production of certain specialized nylons.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Laurolactam 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).
Laurolactam from Cyclododecane (Oximation with Hydroxylamine)
This report presents the economics of Laurolactam production from cyclododecane in the United States. Initially, cyclododecane is oxidized to cyclododecanol. Subsequently, the cyclododecanol obtained is dehydrogenated to cyclododecanone. Then, the cyclododecanone is submitted to an oximation reaction with hydroxylamine. Finally, the cyclododecanone oxime produced is converted to laurolactam by Beckmann rearrangement.
Details: 20 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 109 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Laurolactam E11A target a 20 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.
Laurolactam from Cyclododecane (Photonitrization Process)
This report concerns the production of Laurolactam from cyclododecane in the United States. This report reviews a photonitrozation process similar to the one owned by Arkema. Initially, cyclododecane is submitted to PNC with nitrosyl chloride. The oxime produced is then subjected to Beckmann rearrangement and laurolactam is formed.
Details: 20 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Laurolactam E12A target a 20 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.
Laurolactam Production from Cyclododecanone
This report presents the economics of Laurolactam production from cyclododecanone. The process examined involves the oximation of cyclododecanone raw material and the subsequent rearrengement of the cyclododecanone oxime formed to yield Laurolactam. The economic analysis performed assumes a plant located in the United States.
Details: 20 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $999 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Laurolactam E21A target a 20 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.
