“… − It is also important to consider the latest Chemical Engineering Plant Cost Index (CEPCI). According to the DOE/NETL report, the total capital investment is determined from the total plant cost, owner cost, and other financial cost (eqs and ) where C plant, i is the required plant cost (million dollars, M$), C ref is the plant cost from references (M$), S plant, i is the plant production capacity, S ref is the production capacity from references, m is the exponent for that type of plant, and I index and I index,ref are the cost indices. where O&OFC is the owner cost and other financial cost (M$), TPC is the total plant cost (M$), and TCI is the total capital investment (M$).…”

Hydrogen as a large-scale byproduct from the propane dehydrogenation process is of great value for the downstream value-added chemical production. The paper describes a hybrid process which combines the production of propylene and ammonia using hydrogen produced from the propane dehydrogenation process. The utility consumption and economic cost of the hybrid process are investigated in comparison with the standalone propylene production and methane-toammonia processes. Due to the combination of the endothermic propane dehydrogenation process and exothermic ammonia synthesis process, the hybrid process can achieve a more efficient heat exchange capacity with lower utility requirement. The utility consumption of the hybrid process is 3.5% lower than the summation of standalone propylene production at 900 kt/year and ammonia production at 220 kt/year. The total production cost of the hybrid process is 13.6 M$/year lower at this production scale. Although the production costs of all processes increase with the increase of resource prices and decrease of produce scale, the hybrid process still shows higher economic performance than the summation of those of the two individual processes. This study can potentially instruct the efficient utilization of the byproduct hydrogen from the propane dehydrogenation process for downstream value-added chemical production processes.

Even though there are numerous CO2 capture technologies (such as chemical and physical absorption), investigators are still trying to come up with novel methods that can minimize the energy requirements for their integration into thermal power plants, as well as the CAPEX and OPEX expenses. In this work, the technical and financial aspects of integrating two-stage polymeric membranes into a coal-fired power plant with a capacity of 330 MW were examined. The study researched the membrane post-combustion CO2 capture process utilizing CHEMCAD version 8.1 software with several parameters and an expander to decrease the total cost. The simulation showed promising results regarding reducing power consumption after using an expander for both a high capture rate (>90%) and a CO2 concentration of more than 95%. Thus, the CO2 captured cost decreased from 58.4 EUR/t (no expander) to 48.7 EUR/t (with expander).
