Methionine Production Cost

Updated Reports Examining Methionine Manufacturing Costs | Q3 2024

Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Methionine production costs. Each Intratec Commodity Production Cost report listed below is a comprehensive study of a specific Methionine production process and related Methionine production costs, covering three key aspects:

  • A complete description of the Methionine production process examined
  • An in-depth analysis of the related Methionine plant capital cost (Capex)
  • An evaluation of the respective Methionine plant operating costs (Opex)

All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q3 2024).

Bio-Methionine Production from Raw Sugar

This report presents the economics of L-Methionine production from raw sugar (sucrose) in Germany using a process similar to the technology developed by Metabolic Explorer. In this process, sucrose is diluted and sucrose is hydrolyzed into glucose and fructose (invert sugars). The invert sugars are then fermented in an aerobic environment to produce L-Methionine.

DL-Methionine Production from Acrolein, Methyl Mercaptan and HCN

This report presents the economics of DL-Methionine production from acrolein, methyl mercaptan, and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) in the United States. In this process, refined acrolein and methyl mercaptan are reacted to form MMP (also called methional), which is further reacted with HCN to generate DL-Methionine via a typical carbonate process.

Methionine Hydroxy Analog from Acrolein, Methyl Mercaptan and HCN

This study presents the economics of Methionine Hydroxy Analog production from acrolein, methyl mercaptan, and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) in the United States. In this process, acrolein and methyl mercaptan are reacted to form methional. The methional reacts with HCN to produce hydroxy methylthiobutyronitrile (HMBN) intermediate, which is hydrolyzed to Methionine Hydroxy Analog.

DL-Methionine from Propylene, Methyl Mercaptan and HCN

This study presents the economics of an integrated process for DL-Methionine production starting from propylene in the USA. Initially, propylene is oxidized to acrolein, which is then reacted with methyl mercaptan to generate methional. Finally, methional is reacted with hydrogen cyanide (HCN) to form methionine via a typical carbonate process.

Methionine Hydroxy Analog Production from Methional and HCN

This report presents the economics of Methionine Hydroxy Analog production from methional and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) in the United States via a typical process. In this process, methional reacts with HCN to produce hydroxy methylthiobutyronitrile (HMBN) intermediate, which is hydrolyzed to Methionine Hydroxy Analog.

Methionine Hydroxy Analog from Propylene, Ammonia and Methanol

This study presents the economics of an integrated process for Methionine Hydroxy Analog production starting from propylene in the USA. The integrated process includes the following units: (1) acrolein production from propylene; (2) methional production from acrolein; (3) methyl mercaptan from natural gas, methanol and sulfur; (4) HCN from ammonia and natural gas; and (5) Methionine Hydroxy Analog production from methional and HCN.

DL-Methionine from Methional and Hydrogen Cyanide

This report provides the economics of DL-Methionine production from methional and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) in the United States via a typical carbonate process. Initially, methional is reacted with HCN, ammonia and carbon dioxide to produce 5-(2-methylmercaptoethyl)-hydantoin (MMEH), which is hydrolyzed to potassium methioninate (KMET). Finally, the KMET is acidified, liberating methionine.
