Toluene Production Costs - Q2 2023
Toluene Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Toluene (a.k.a. Methylbenzene) is an organic compound, in the aromatic hydrocarbon class. It is a colorless, clear liquid, insoluble in water, but soluble in most organic compounds. It occurs naturally in crude oil but can also be produced during the catalytic reforming of naphtha and manufacturing of coke from coal. Toluene was first isolated in 1837, with industrial production beginning in the start of the twentieth century. The importance of toluene as a raw material grew tremendously during World War I, for its production of the explosive trinitrotoluene compound (TNT). Currently, Toluene is used as a versatile building block, widely employed as precursor in the production of many industrial chemicals.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Toluene 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 Production from Reformate
This report presents the economics of Toluene production from reformate. The reformate is submitted to a typical sulfolane liquid-liquid extraction, giving a mixture of aromatics, which is further processed to yield pure Toluene. Benzene and mixed xylenes are produced as by-products. The economic analysis presented is based on a plant constructed in the United States.
Details: 350 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Toluene E11A target a 350 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.
Toluene Production from Pygas
This study presents the economics of Toluene production from pyrolysis gasoline (pygas) in the United States using a typical liquid-liquid extraction process.
Details: 400 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Toluene E21A target a 400 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.
