PRARANCANGAN PABRIK ASAM ASETAT PROSES MONSANTO DENGAN DESAIN ALAT UTAMA FLASH DRUM (FD – 101)
              Acetic acid is a widely used raw material in the chemical industry, both in the 
production of cellulose acetate, ethyl acetate, acetic anhydride, and in the textile 
industry. The demand for acetic acid in Indonesia has not been met by local 
producers, thus necessitating imports from abroad. This is due to the limited 
number of acetic acid plants in the country. Seeing the increasing demand for 
acetic acid in Indonesia, in a step to reduce import value and increase export 
value, the establishment of an acetic acid plant is deemed necessary. The purpose 
of this design is to determine whether the acetic acid plant is feasible to establish 
or not. This feasibility study aims to (1) Analyze the investment in the construction 
of an acetic acid plant based on technical, institutional, market, environmental, 
management, and legal aspects (non-financial); (2) Analyze the feasibility level of 
investment in the acetic acid plant based on financial aspects; and (3) Analyze the 
sensitivity of acetic acid feasibility to changes in production costs and production 
capacity reduction. The analysis is conducted qualitatively and quantitatively. 
Qualitative analysis is done descriptively through observation and literature 
study, while quantitative analysis is done using financial analysis methods based 
on Break-even point (BEP), Return on Investment (ROI), Payback Period (PBP), 
Net Present Value (NPV), Interest Rate of Return (IRR), and sensitivity analysis 
criteria. The feasibility study results show that the construction of a 50,000 
tons/year capacity acetic acid plant is feasible. Based on the non-financial aspects 
consisting of technical, market, environmental, management, and legal aspects, 
there are no obstacles that can disrupt the operational process or the intended 
goals. From a financial perspective, based on the assumptions and criteria used 
for the construction of the acetic acid plant, it is feasible with a Net Present Value 
(NPV) of Rp 278,513,698,973.62; BEP 39.79%; ROI 45.69%; PBP 1.7 years, and 
IRR 22.61%. The sensitivity analysis results are conducted by examining the 
volatility effect of 4 components, namely raw material prices, product selling 
prices, employee salaries, and maintenance costs, and are deemed feasible to 
implement.
