Acetic Acid Production from Methanol - Cost Analysis - Acetic Acid E21A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Acetic Acid production from methanol and carbon monoxide The process examined is a typical carbonylation process. In this process, the carbonylation is promoted by an iodide rhodium liquid catalyst. The liquid product is sent to a set of distillation columns to recover the Acetic Acid. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) "Acetic Acid", Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 5th edition (2) US Patent 6458996, issued to BP Chemicals in 2002 Keywords: Ethanoic Acid, Monsanto, Iodomethane

Acetic Anhydride from Acetic Acid and Acetone - Cost Analysis - Acetic Anhydride E21A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Acetic Anhydride production from acetic acid and acetone. The process examined is carried out in two steps: the pyrolysis of acetone to ketene; and the reaction of ketene with acetic acid to produce Acetic Anhydride. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Ethanoic Anhydride, Ketene Absorption




Acetic Acid Production from Acetaldehyde - Cost Analysis - Acetic Acid E11A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Acetic Acid production from acetaldehyde and oxygen The process examined is a typical liquid-phase oxidation process. In this process, the oxidation occurs with manganous acetate as catalyst. Unreacted acetaldehyde is condensed and recycled back to the reactor. The liquid product is sent to a set of distillation columns to recover the Acetic Acid. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Ethanoic Acid, Ethanal, Oxidation Reaction, Liquid-Phase Oxidation, Air

Vinyl Acetate from Acetic Acid and Acetylene - Cost Analysis - VAM E21A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM) from acetic acid and acetylene In the process examined, acetic acid and acetylene react in the vapor phase in the presence of a supported metal catalyst to produce vinyl acetate. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) "Vinyl Esters," Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition (2) US Patent 3415872, issued to Blaw Knox in 1968 Keywords: Ethenyl Acetate, Ethanoic Acid, Acetylene, Wacker




Acrylic Acid Production from Glycerol - Cost Analysis - Acrylic Acid E21A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Ester-Grade Acrylic Acid (EAA) production from crude glycerol. The two-step process examined is similar to Arkema process. In this process, crude glycerol (at 85 wt% purity) obtained as by-product of biodiesel plants, is used as the main raw material. After purification, glycerol is dehydrated to acrolein and subsequently oxidized. The final product obtained is EAA, which is used in the production of acrylic esters. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): US Patent 2010/0168471 A1, issued to Arkema in 2010 Keywords: Glicerin, Dehydration, Oxidation, Unsaturated Carboxylic Acid, Propenoic Acid




Ethyl Acetate Production from Ethanol - Cost Analysis - Ethyl Acetate E21A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Ethyl Acetate production from ethanol. The process examined is similar to the Johnson Matthey's DAVY ethyl acetate technology. In this process, Ethyl Acetate is produced in a two‐stage reaction: ethanol is dehydrogenated to acetaldehyde, which further reacts with ethanol to form Ethyl Acetate. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) US Patent 6,632,330 issued to Davy Process Technology Limited (2) US Patent 6,809,217 issued to Davy Process Technology Limited Keywords: Dehydrogenation, Ethyl Acetate, EA, DPT, Johnson Matthey




Ethyl Acetate Production from Ethylene and Acid Acetic - Cost Analysis - Ethyl Acetate E31A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Ethyl Acetate production from ethylene and acetic acid. In this process, ethyl acetate is produced via a direct addition reaction of acetic acid to ethylene. The process under analysis is similar to two processes developed independently: the AVADA process, owned by INEOS and formerly owned by BP, and Showa Denko's Direct Addition Process. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): US Patent 6,794,535 issued to BP Chemicals Limited Keywords: AVADA, Ethyl Acetate, EA, BP
