Commodity Production Costs
Medium-Purity Terephthalic Acid Production
This report presents the economics of Medium-Purity Terephthalic Acid (MTA) production. The analysis is based on a plant located in the United States starting from p-xylene using a typical catalytic oxidation process. In this process, p-xylene is oxidized to terephthalic acid (TPA). Then, the TPA is crystallized and recovered from the liquor and MTA is obtained as the final product.
Commodity Production Costs
Purified Terephthalic Acid from p-Xylene (Conventional Process)
This study presents the economics of Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) production using p-xylene as the process feedstock. The study approaches the construction of a plant in the United States employing a conventional catalytic oxidation process. In this process, p-xylene is oxidized to terephthalic acid (TPA). The TPA is subjected to separation and drying steps, and then sent to hydrogenation to obtain PTA as the final product.
Commodity Production Costs
Purified Terephthalic Acid from p-Xylene (BP Technology)
This assessment presents the economics of Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) production from p-xylene. The economic analysis is based in a plant located in the United States. The process examined in this report is similar to BP X Technology. In this process, p-xylene is oxidized to terephthalic acid, which is hydrogenated to obtain PTA. Drying and storage of crude terephthalic acid is not necessary.
Commodity Production Costs
Purified Terephthalic Acid from p-Xylene (GTC Technology)
This analysis presents production cost of Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) production from p-xylene. The process examined in this report is similar to that one developed by GTC Technology. Differently from the conventional technology, this process does not involve a hydrogenation step for Terephthalic Acid purification after oxidation. The economic analysis assumes a plant located in the USA..
