Methyl Ester Sulfonate Production Process - Cost Analysis - MES E11A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Methyl Ester Sulfonate (MES) production from palm oil The process examined consists of two steps: a transesterification step similar to Lurgi Transesterification process and a sulfonation step similar to Chemithon process. In this process, palm oil and methanol are reacted forming methyl ester, which is then sulfonated to Methyl Ester Sulfonate. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) US Patent 8288574, issued to Lurgi in 2012 (2) Handbook of Detergents, Part F: Production Keywords: Methyl Alcohol, Sulfur Burning, Air/SO3 Sulfonation

Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate Production - Cost Analysis - SLES E11A


Book Description

This report presents a cost analysis of Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) production from chlorosulfonic acid, lauryl ethoxylate, and sodium hydroxide. The process examined is a typical sulfation process. In the process examined, lauryl ethoxylate reacts with chlorosulfonic acid (sulfation). The product is neutralized with sodium hydroxide, producing the surfactant. The final product obtained is SLES, containing 70 wt% of active matter. In addition, hydrochloric acid (33 wt%) is also generated as by-product. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) "Sulfonation and Sulfation", Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 5th edition (2) Handbook of Detergents, Part F: Production Keywords: Sodium Laureth Sulfate, SLS, Caustic Soda, Sulfation, Sulfurylation
