- 1. Know the capital investment required Examinethe operating costs & raw materials consumption Octenes are alkenes with eight carbons. Diverse isomers of octene are known, like 1-octene, an alpha- olefin used primarily as a comonomer in production of polyethylene (HDPE and LLDPE). Octenes are used to alkylate phenols to give precursors to detergents. The Intratec portfolio (www.intratec.us/our-portfolio) includes reports examining specific Octenes production processes. Each report presents one-time costs associated with the construction of an industrial plant and the continuing costs associated with the daily operation of such a plant. General information included in our reports is presented below. AN INTRODUCTION TO OCTENES PROCESS TECHNOLOGY THOROUGH UNDERSTANDING * Description & applications * Production pathways diagram * Product(s) generated & raw material(s) consumed * Physico-chemistry highlights * Industrial site production capacity definition * Detailed process block flow scheme & description * Key process input & output figures (including raw material(s) consumption) * Labor requirements CAPITAL INVESTMENT BREAKDOWN * Total fixed capital required (ISBL, OSBL and contingency) * Working capital * Costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up * Multi-regional fixed capital analysis PRODUCTION COST DETAILED LOOK * Manufacturing variable costs (raw materials and utilities required) * Manufacturing fixed costs (e.g., labor and maintenance costs, operating charges, plant overhead) * Depreciation and corporate overhead costs * Production cost history (4-year timeframe) Understand Octenes production costs Industrial Process Economics About Octenes Reports Coverage of Octenes Process Economics Reports Each report examines one specific Octenes production process, including: PROCESS ECONOMICS QUICK SUMMARY TABLE LABOR WAGE RATES AND PRICING BASIS REFERENCES & ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY
- 2. About our Methodology Intratechas distilled the expertise gained from more than a decade supporting companies worldwide to devise consistent methodologies, which ensures the development of holistic, coherent and consistent reports. Intratec's highly experienced engineers start the development of process economics reports with in-depth, comprehensive research on the technology examined, encompassing patents and available technical literature, non-confidential information provided by technology licensors and Intratec's in-house database. This exhaustive research provides a clear and consistent understanding of the process technology studied, including chemical, biological and/or physical transformations occurring in the target process, as well as reactants required and products formation. That knowledge is compiled into a detailed process block flow scheme and a mapping of key process input & output figures (including raw materials consumption). Finally, in the assessment of the economic figures of the process technology under analysis, Intratec’s team relies on an extensive in- house database and robust cost models. Our cost models were founded on a number of established cost-estimating methods, based on mathematical and statistical processing of an extensive volume of actual cost data of well-known industrial processes. For a 10-page description of our methodology, visit www.intratec.us/reports/industrial-processes-economics Reports Focused on Octenes Production Economics ECONOMICS OF OCTENES PRODUCTION FROM BUTENES (OCTENES E11A) This report presents an economics analysis for the production of Mixed Octenes starting from butenes. The study concerns a plant based on a process similar to Axens Dimersol-X and located on the US Gulf Coast. ECONOMICS OF 1-OCTENE PRODUCTION FROM MIXED C4S (OCTENES E12A) This report presents the economics of 1-Octene production from mixed C4 hydrocarbons in the United States. The analysis assumes a plant employing a process similar to the technology owned by Dow Chemicals. ECONOMICS OF 1-OCTENE PRODUCTION FROM C7S (OCTENES E21A) In this study, it is approached the economics of 1-Octene production starting from mixed C7 hydrocarbons. The analysis is based on a United States-based plant using a process similar to the technology owned by Sasol. ECONOMICS OF 1-OCTENE PRODUCTION FROM SYNFUELS (OCTENES E31A) This feasibility study concerns the production of 1-Octene starting from synthetic gasoline. It also assumes a plant located in the United States, employing another process also owned by Sasol.
