Polybutylene Succinate
Polybutylene Succinate
PBS
Polybutylene Succinate (a.k.a. PBS) is a biodegradable linear aliphatic polyester with excellent mechanical properties. PBS is produced by transesterification polymerization of dimethyl succinate with 1,4-butanediol, or by direct melt polymerization of succinic acid with butanediol. PBS copolymers with improved characteristics and properties can be manufactured from succinic acid or succinate, butanediol, and other dicarboxylic acids or alkylenediols, such as adipic acid, terephthalic acid, sebacic acid, 1,3-propanediol, and other substituted glycols.

Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Polybutylene Succinate 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).

Polybutylene Succinate Production from Succinic Acid and Butanediol

This report presents the economics of Polybutylene Succinate (PBS) production from succinic acid and butanediol using a process similar to Uhde Inventa-Fischer process. The economic assessment assumes a plant located in the United States.

Details: 70 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2023   |   107 pages   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in the report PBS E11A target a 70 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.

Polybutylene Succinate Production from Glucose and Butanediol

This report presents the economics of Polybutylene Succinate (PBS) production from glucose and butanediol in the United States. The examined process combines a fermentative process for succinic acid generation from glucose syrup with a process similar to Uhde Inventa-Fischer for generating Polybutylene Succinate from succinic acid generated and butanediol.

Details: 100 kta United States-based plant   |   Q2 2023   |   107 pages   From $1,199 USD

The cost analyses presented in the report PBS E21A target a 100 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.

Polybutylene Succinate Production from Raw Sugar and Butanediol

This report presents the economics of Polybutylene Succinate (PBS) production from raw sugar and butanediol in Germany. The examined process combines a process for succinic acid generation from raw sugar with a process similar to Uhde Inventa-Fischer for generating Polybutylene Succinate from succinic acid and butanediol.

Details: 100 kta Germany-based plant   |   Q2 2023   |   107 pages   From $1,199 USD

The cost analyses presented in the report PBS E31B target a 100 kta (kilometric tons per annum) Germany-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
