Report Abstract
This study approaches the economics of Granulated Urea manufacturing from natural gas in an industrial complex, located in the United States. Initially, natural gas is converted to syngas via a combined reforming. The syngas is mixed with nitrogen to produce ammonia. The ammonia formed is reacted with carbon dioxide, to form Urea in a process similar to Stamicarbon’s carbon dioxide stripping technology.
The report provides a comprehensive study of Urea production and related Urea production cost, covering three key aspects: a complete description of the Urea production process examined; an in-depth analysis of the related Urea plant capital cost (Capex); and an evaluation of the respective Urea plant operating costs (Opex).
The Urea production process description includes a block flow diagram (BFD), an overview of the industrial site installations, detailing both the process unit and the necessary infrastructure, process consumption figures and comprehensive process flow diagrams (PFD). The Urea plant capital cost analysis breaks down the Capex by plant cost (i.e., ISBL, OSBL and Contingency); owner's cost; working capital; and costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up. The Urea plant operating costs analysis covers operating expenses, including variable costs like raw materials and utilities, and fixed costs such as maintenance, labor, and depreciation.
Process Overview
Product
Urea. Urea is a nitrogen-rich fertilizer essential for modern agriculture. It is also used in the production of plastics, resins, and pharmaceuticals. Urea is synthesized from ammonia and carbon dioxide and is typically stored in solid granules or liquid form. Its widespread use in farming helps boost crop yields worldwide.
Raw Material
Natural Gas. Natural gas is a naturally occurring mixture of hydrocarbon found in porous subsurface geologic formations. It is composed mainly of methane, but also contains varying amounts of higher hydrocarbons such as ethane, propane, and butane. Additionally, natural gas may also include non-hydrocarbon components considered impurities such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide. Natural gas is primarily used as a source of heat energy for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. It may also be used in the production of important chemicals such as ammonia, methanol, and hydrogen.

Prilled Urea Production from Ammonia (Self-Stripping Process)
This report presents the economics of Prilled Urea production from ammonia and carbon dioxide in the United States, through a process similar to Saipem's (formerly Snamprogetti) ammonia stripping process. In this process, ammonia and carbon dioxide are reacted to form ammonium carbamate, which is converted to Urea. The non-converted carbamate is stripped from the Urea solution by excess ammonia and decomposed back to ammonia and carbon dioxide, which are recycled to the Urea synthesis.
