Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of 1,3-Butadiene (BD) production from mixed butenes using an oxidative dehydrogenation process. The process examined is similar to TPC/UOP Oxo-D process. In this process, butenes are catalytically dehydrogenated to produce a crude butadiene stream which is further purified to the final Butadiene product. In the purification step, raffinate is obtained as by-product. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): "Butadiene", Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition Keywords: Petrotex, Oxidative Dehydrogenation, BD, Fixed-Bed Reactor, BASF, NMP extraction
