Phosgene Production Costs - Q2 2023
Phosgene Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Phosgene (a.k.a. COCl2) is a colorless, chemically reactive and highly toxic gas. This organic compound was first prepared by J. Davy back in 1812, from the photochemical reaction of carbon monoxide and chlorine, and was largely used as a warfare agent in World War I. Phosgene is commercially produced by the reaction of carbon monoxide with chlorine over activated carbon, and used in the preparation of several chemical intermediates – mainly isocyanates. While Phosgene is a highly toxic gas, considerable efforts have been devoted to handling it safely. Also, researches have been conducted to develop phosgene-free processes for isocyanate production, in order to avoid safety problems associated with phosgene.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Phosgene 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).

The cost analyses presented in the report Carbon Monoxide E11A target a 300 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.
Chlorine Production from Sodium Chloride (Membrane Process)
This study presents the economics of Chlorine production from sodium chloride via a membrane process plant located in the United States. In the process under analysis, an aqueous solution of sodium chloride (brine) is decomposed electrolytically in a membrane cell, producing Chlorine, sodium hydroxide and hydrogen.
Details: 500 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Chlorine E11A target a 500 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.
Polycarbonate Production from BPA and Phosgene
This report presents the economics of Polycarbonate (PC) production from bisphenol A (BPA) and phosgene in the United States, via a typical interfacial process. In this process, BPA, dissolved in a caustic soda solution, is reacted with phosgene, in an organic solution, at the interface of the two phases. The carbonate oligomers produced are then polycondensed to Polycarbonate.
Details: 200 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report PC 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.
