Renewable Diesel from Soybean Oil & Natural Gas
Biomass-Based Diesel Operating Costs & Plant Construction Costs
This report presents a techno-economic analysis of Renewable Diesel production from soybean oil in the United States using a typical hydroprocessing process presenting an integrated hydrogen production plant from natural gas.
The report provides a comprehensive study of Biomass-Based Diesel production and related Biomass-Based Diesel production cost, covering three key aspects: a complete description of the Biomass-Based Diesel production process examined; an in-depth analysis of the related Biomass-Based Diesel plant capital cost (Capex); and an evaluation of the respective Biomass-Based Diesel plant operating costs (Opex).
The Biomass-Based Diesel 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 Biomass-Based Diesel 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 Biomass-Based Diesel plant operating costs analysis covers operating expenses, including variable costs like raw materials and utilities, and fixed costs such as maintenance, labor, and depreciation.
