Feedstock for 2-Propenenitrile

The manufacturing of 2-propene-nitrile involves a catalytic ammoxidation using propylene, ammonia, and oxygen as the first line of raw materials. The changes in market dynamics of these major feedstock affect the production of 2-propionitrile.

The sourcing of propylene as a raw material is affected by several factors. The changes in the prices of its primary feedstock prices, like naphtha, natural gas, propane, and energy costs, impact its production expenses. Transportation costs vary based on logistics efficiency and distance, which further affects its sourcing. Other factors, like supply chain interruptions because of conflicts and regulatory changes, affect availability and prices. The growing trend towards sustainability makes manufacturers opt for eco-friendly practices that affect their sourcing. Its demand in downstream industries like polymers, Automotive Components, Packaging Materials, Insulation Materials, etc., further affects its industrial procurement.

The sourcing of ammonia as a raw material is influenced by several key factors. The costs of inputs like natural gas impact ammonia pricing. The changes in energy prices affect overall production costs and procurement strategies. Compliance with environmental standards also affects production costs and procurement. The advancement in technology used in the production methods that give better yield and efficiency affects its sourcing. Also, geopolitical factors disrupt supply chains and impact availability, influencing the overall industrial procurement of ammonia.

The procurement of oxygen as a raw material is influenced by factors like prices and availability. The source of raw material is abundant, but the type of extraction processes used, like as cryogenic distillation or pressure swing adsorption, affects its procurement. The availability of materials like zeolites for purification is affected by geopolitical and trade dynamics that further affect its prices and availability. Regulatory compliance for establishing an oxygen manufacturing facility introduces delays and increases costs. The transportation costs and infrastructure accessibility further impact procurement strategies. The changes in raw material prices because of energy costs, along with its demand in healthcare, affect its overall industrial procurement.

Manufacturing Process

This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for 2-Propenenitrile manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial 2-Propenenitrile manufacturing.

• By Catalytic Ammoxidation: The feedstock for this process includes propylene, ammonia, and oxygen.

The manufacturing of 2-Propenenitrile involves a catalytic ammoxidation of propylene. In this process, propylene reacts with ammonia and oxygen in a fluid bed reactor in the presence of bismuth and molybdenum oxides as catalysts. This reaction results in the formation of 2-propenenitrile as the primary product, along with byproducts such as crude hydrogen cyanide and a fraction containing heavy impurities. Finally, the product is separated and purified to get pure 2-Propenenitrile as the final product.
 

Properties of 2-Propenenitrile

2-Propenenitrile has a molecular formula of C3H3N and a molecular weight of around 53.06 g/mol. It is a colorless, volatile liquid with a garlic or onion-like odor. It has a density of 0.806 g/cm³ with a boiling point of 77.3 °C and a melting point of -83.5 °C. Its refractive index is 1.391, and it has a vapor pressure of about 9.8 kPa at 20 °C. It is soluble in water and many organic solvents. It is reactive because of the presence of the nitrile group that goes through polymerization to form polymers like polyacrylonitrile. It is toxic at low doses and can produce hazardous compounds upon combustion and thus needs careful handling in industrial settings.
