Rancangan Pabrik H2SO4 Contact Process dengan Desain Alat Utama Kolom Absorpsi Reaktif SO3 (T-102)
Sulfuric acid is the most widely used chemical product that has earned the nickname the life
blood of industry. Sulfuric acid is much needed by the chemical industries, including the fertilizer
industry (used for the manufacture of super phosphate and ammonium sulfate), petroleum
processing, pharmaceuticals, paper and pulp, plastics, batteries, explosives, paints and pigments, and
others. Sulfuric acid import demand from abroad shows an average import growth of 2,97% per year.
The need for sulfuric acid in Indonesia is still met by imports so that the construction of a sulfuric
acid plant in Indonesia has the potential to be a profitable investment to meet market demand.
The location of the sulfuric acid plant is planned in Bedanten Village, Bungah Subdistrict,
Gresik Regency, East Java Province, Indonesia. With a planned production capacity of 280,000
tonnes/year, the establishment of a sulfuric acid plant is expected to meet domestic sulfuric acid needs
and reduce import dependence. The sulfuric acid plant requires a utility system in the form of water
demand of 6328.81 kg/hour, steam of 3894.80 kg/hour, and power of 443.71 kW/hour. Water
utility needs are obtained from the Bengawan Solo river.
The results of economic analysis with total capital investment (TCI) of
Rp1,614,952,708,252.37 and total product cost (TPC) of Rp1,176,621,177,347.20. Revenue from
sales of sulfuric acid products amounted to Rp1,912,459,105,125.12/year. From the profitability
analysis, a net present value (NPV) of Rp2,299,111,468,369.15 was obtained with a discount rate
of 18%, an internal rate of return (IRR) of 28.54%, a breakeven point (BEP) occurred at a production
capacity of 50.60%, and a payback period (PBP) of 2.73 years. The profitability analysis results
show that the sulfuric acid plant is feasible to establish and is a profitable investment.
