Toluene Diisocyanate Production Costs - Q2 2023
Toluene Diisocyanate Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Toluene Diisocyanate (a.k.a. TDI) is an organic compound, in the aromatic isocyanate class. It is a colorless oily liquid, with sharp, pungent odor, soluble in acetone, benzene, and other organic solvents. TDI readily reacts with water at ambient temperature, forming insoluble urea compounds and a large amount of carbon dioxide gas. Like other isocyanates, TDI can be classified as potential human carcinogen. The main effects of hazardous exposures are occupational asthma and other lung problems, as well as irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, and skin. It is largely produced, accounting for 34.1% of the global isocyanate market in 2000.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Toluene Diisocyanate 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).
Toluene Diisocyanate Production from DNT, CO and Methanol
This report presents the economics of Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI) production from dinitrotoluene (DNT) in the United States. The process examined is a typical reductive carbonylation. DNT initially is reacted with carbon monoxide and methanol to form toluene dimethylcarbamate, which is then thermally decomposed to produce TDI.

Toluene Diisocyanate from DNT and Cl2 (Liquid-Phase Phosgenation)
This study presents the costs associated with Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI) production from dinitrotoluene (DNT) and chlorine in the United States. Initially, DNT is hydrogenated to toluenediamine (TDA), which is reacted with phosgene in liquid phase to produce TDI. The phosgene used in this process is generated from chlorine and carbon monoxide in an on-site unit.

Toluene Diisocyanate from DNT and Cl2 (Gas-Phase Phosgenation)
This report shows a techno-economic analysis about Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI) production from dinitrotoluene (DNT) and chlorine in the United States. The process examined in this report is similar to the Bayer gas-phase phosgenation (GPP) technology. DNT is hydrogenated to toluenediamine (TDA), which then reacts with phosgene in gas phase to produce TDI. The phosgene used in generated from chlorine.

Toluene Diisocyanate from Toluene (Reductive Carbonylation)
This report presents the economics of Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI) production from toluene in the United States. The process examined is a typical reductive carbonylation. Initially, dinitrotoluene (DNT) is produced via toluene dinitration, which is then reacted with carbon monoxide and methanol to form toluene dimethylcarbamate. This intermediate is thermally decomposed to produce TDI.
