MTBE Production Cost
Updated Reports Examining MTBE Manufacturing Costs | Q3 2024
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining MTBE production costs. Each Intratec Commodity Production Cost report listed below is a comprehensive study of a specific MTBE production process and related MTBE production costs, covering three key aspects:
- A complete description of the MTBE production process examined
- An in-depth analysis of the related MTBE plant capital cost (Capex)
- An evaluation of the respective MTBE plant operating costs (Opex)
All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q3 2024).
MTBE Production from Isobutylene
This report presents a techno-economic analysis of MTBE production from methanol and isobutylene in the Unites States. In this process, similar to UOP Ethermax process, a isobutylene-rich stream obtained from an isobutane dehydrogenation plant is etherified with methanol, producing MTBE.

MTBE Production from Raffinate-1
This study provides an economical analysis of Methyl tert-Butyl Ether (MTBE) production from a raffinate-1 stream and methanol using a process similar to UOP's Ethermax process for isobutylene etherification in China. In this process, isobutylene from raffinate-1 is submitted to etherification with methanol in a conventional reactor and in a reactive distillation column.

MTBE Production from FCC C4 Raffinate
This process examined provides an economical analysis of Methyl tert-Butyl Ether (MTBE) production from FCC C4 raffinate and methanol using a process similar to UOP's Ethermax process for isobutylene etherification in China. In this process, isobutylene from FCC C4 raffinate is submitted to etherification with methanol in a conventional reactor and in a reactive distillation column.

MTBE Production from Butane
This report presents a feasibility analysis of an on-purpose Methyl tert-Butyl Ether (MTBE) production plant from butane and methanol in the United States. Initially, n-butane is isomerized to isobutane, which is then subjected to a dehydrogenation, yielding isobutylene. In the final step, generated isobutylene and methanol react leading to the formation of MTBE. These steps are similar to Butamer, Oleflex and Ethermax processes in sequence.
