Methacrylic Acid Production from Isobutylene
This report presents the economics of Methacrylic Acid production from isobutylene via a typical two-stage, gas-phase oxidation process via methacrolein as an intermediate. The economic analysis is based on the construction of a plant in the United States.

Methacrylic Acid Production from Isobutane
This study provides the economics of Methacrylic Acid production starting from isobutane in the United States. Isobutane is first dehydrogenated to isobutylene in a process similar to UOP Oleflex. The isobutylene is then converted to Methacrylic Acid via a typical two-step oxidation process.
