Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate Production Costs - Q2 2023
Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (a.k.a. LAS, Linear Alkylbenzene Sulphonic Acid) refers to a group of anionic surfactants, which are comprised of an aromatic ring sulfonated at the para position and attached to a linear alkyl chain with 10 to 13 carbons. LAS are produced by sulfonation of linear alkyl benzenes with sulfonating agents, such as sulfuric acid or chlorosulfonic acid, in the presence of hydrogen fluoride catalyst. LAS readily biodegraded in aerobic envinroments, and due to this characteristic, is the most used surfactant in household detergent formulations. It is also widely employed a number of industrial applications.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate 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).
Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate Production from LAB and Oleum
This report presents the economics of Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (LAS) production from linear alkylbenzene (LAB) and oleum (10-25% sulfur trioxide in sulfuric acid) in the United States, via a conventional sulfonation process. Sulfur trioxide is the sulfonating agent and the primary product is the para-alkylbenzene sulfonic acid, which is further neutralized.
Details: 15 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $999 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report LAS E11A target a 15 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.
Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate Production from LAB and Sulfur
This report analyses the economics of Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (LAS) production from linear alkylbenzene (LAB) and sulfur in the United States, via a conventional sulfonation process. In this process, elemental sulfur is burned, yielding sulfur dioxide, which is then oxidated with dry air to produce sulfur trioxide, the sulfonating agent. The primary product is the para-alkylbenzene sulfonic acid, which is further neutralized.
