This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of triethylene glycol production from ethylene. The synthesis of triethylene glycol begins with the oxidation of ethylene on heating at an elevated temperature in the presence of a catalyst. In the reaction, silver oxide is used to catalyze the reaction and leads to the formation of ethylene oxide as an intermediate. The process is further carried out by treating ethylene oxide with water, which leads to the hydration of ethylene oxide and results in the production of triethylene glycol as the final product.

Feedstock for Triethylene Glycol
Triethylene glycol is a co-product obtained from ethylene oxide that serves as its major feedstock. The procurement of triethylene glycol is majorly dependent upon factors including the supply of its raw materials (including ethylene for ethylene oxide production, which is used for triethylene glycol), the variations in its production cost and market prices, as well as the logistics and trading activities, etc. Similarly, other significant factors such as the supply chain stability for triethylene glycol, the transportation, and distribution of triethylene glycol in the global market, along with its demand in different market sectors (including oil, gas, polyester, polymer, resin, and chemical industries) and economic policies also govern its procurement around the globe.
