This study analyzes Nitroethane Production by Vapor-Phase Nitration of Propane with Nitric Acid, covering manufacturing, process flow, operating expenses, and financial considerations.
Last Updated: January, 2025
This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of nitroethane production by the vapor-phase nitration of propane with nitric acid. The synthesis of nitroethane is carried out by the vapor-phase nitration of propane with nitric acid. The reaction is carried out by combining nitric acid with propane at an elevated temperature and controlled pressure. The process leads to the formation of the resultant, along with water as the byproduct. The resultant undergoes fractional distillation to produce nitroethane as the final product.
The project economic analysis provided in the report discusses a Germany-based plant:
