Procurement Resource Analyses the Production Cost of Butadiene in its New Report
Analyses Overview of The New Production Cost Report of Butadiene
The new report by Procurement Resource, a global procurement research, and consulting firm, looks in-depth into the costs involved in the production of Butadiene. The comprehensive report analyses the production cost of the material, covering the raw material costs and co-product credit, equipment costs, land and site costs, labor wages, maintenance costs, financing charges, and depreciation costs. The extensive study describes the stepwise consumption of material and utilities along with a detailed process flow diagram. The report also assesses the latest developments within the industry that might influence Butadiene production cost, looking into capacity expansions, plant turnarounds, mergers, acquisitions, and investments.
Product Definition:
At room temperature and pressure, butadiene (also known as 1,3-butadiene) is a highly reactive gas that is colorless, non-corrosive and has a moderate aromatic or gasoline-like odor. It is primarily utilized as a monomer in the production of synthetic rubbers and plastics and is created as a by-product of ethylene and propylene manufacturing facilities. If employed in small amounts, it can be used as a chemical intermediary. Automobiles, building materials, appliance components, computers, telecommunication equipment, protective apparel, packaging, and home products all employ the resulting rubbers or plastics.
Factors Impacting the Butadiene Production Cost:
During the projected period, the butadiene market in India and China is predicted to rise significantly, owing to the rising population, developing economies, and favorable government investment policies to stimulate industrial expansion. Butadiene demand is being driven by the increased usage of synthetic rubbers and polymers in numerous end-use industries. However, problems such as butadiene’s carcinogenic nature and the many acute and chronic damages produced by its vapors may limit the market. Government-imposed tight rules also stifle growth.
Procurement Resource Assessment of Butadiene Production:
The production cost report by Procurement Resource assesses the production of Butadiene from aliphatic hydrocarbons using the steam cracking process. A combination of aliphatic hydrocarbons and steam are cooked to a high temperature in this process, yielding several unsaturated hydrocarbons as by-products, including butadiene. Extractive distillation with a polar aprotic solvent is then used to separate butadiene from the other hydrocarbons. Finally, butadiene and the solvent are separated using distillation to yield butadiene.
This paper also includes a full cost analysis of the Houdry Catadiene method for producing butadiene from n-butane. The catalytic dehydrogenation of n-butane is carried out in this method by treating it with alumina and chromia at high temperatures to produce butadiene.
A full cost study of butadiene manufacture from butenes utilizing the oxidative dehydrogenation method is also included in this research. Mixed butenes are catalytically dehydrogenated in this process, yielding a crude butadiene stream that is then refined to yield butadiene.
A full cost study of butadiene manufacture from ethanol is also included in this research. Hydrous ethanol is first reacted with ethanol to make acetaldehyde, which is then reacted with ethanol to produce butadiene with raffinate as a by-product.
Another process of butadiene manufacturing is by using carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is converted to 2, 3-butanediol (BDO) during the fermentation process. This intermediate is subsequently catalytically converted to butadiene, with the by-products methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and ethanol.
