Book Description
This report presents a cost analysis of Polybutadiene production starting from n-butane. The process examined is similar to CB&I Lummus Catadiene process, integrated with a typical solution process. The main chemical reactions in this process are the dehydrogenation of n-butane, the extractive distillation of the Butadiene from dehydrogenation product and the polymerization of butadiene to Polybutadiene. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) "Butadiene," Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition (2) "Rubber, 3. Synthetic", Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition (2) US Patent 20130172489, issued to LANXESS in 2013 Keywords: Houdry Catadiene, Sud-Chemie, Catalytic Dehydrogenation, BD, Fixed-Bed Reactor, BASF, NMP extraction, Polymerization, High-Cis Polybutadiene, NdBR, NiBR, BD
