Bio-Paraxylene Production from Glucose (Catalytic Process)
Cost of Production Report | Paraxylene E51A
Details: 200 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2024 | 106 pages | See Versions From $999 USD |
This report presents a cost analysis of a 200 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. You can add a customized cost analysis, assuming another plant capacity and/or location (country), when ordering an advanced version of this report.
This report presents an up-to-date, detailed cost analysis of para-Xylene production from glucose syrup. The process examined is similar to the one proposed by the Catalysis Center for Energy Innovation (CCEI). In this process, glucose is converted hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), which reacts with hydrogen to produce dimethylfuran (DMF), which is then reacted with ethylene to form para-Xylene.
This report, Paraxylene E51A, is a best-in-class examination of Paraxylene production, providing an in-depth, comprehensive techno-economic analysis of the production technology examined, including:
- Process Description: raw materials and utilities consumption, products generation, labor requirements, list of equipment, characterization of site infrastructure, process flow diagram (PFD).
- Capital Cost Analysis: costs of plant construction, working capital, owners' costs, commissioning, start-up and contingency.
- Operating Cost Analysis: variable costs, fixed costs (salary, benefits & maintenance) and corporate overhead costs.
- And much more . . .
