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.

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..

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.

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.
