Prarancangan Pabrik Asam Akrilat Proses Oksidasi Dengan Desain Alat Utama Kolom Stripper Asam Akrilat
Acrylic acid is an important chemical in the industrial world because acrylic acid is an intermediate chemical that is widely used in industrial production processes and consumer products. Acrylic acid is mainly used as a raw material in the manufacture of acrylic esters, as a monomer for polyacrylic acid and its salts, as a comonomer for use as a flocculent and ion exchange resin polymer. The main raw materials used in the production of acrylic acid are propylene and oxygen. The selected process used for the production of acrylic acid from propylene is propylene oxidation. The factory being established will operate for 330 days per year and work continuously 24 hours/day with a capacity of 60,000 tons/year which will be established in Cilegon, Banten Province, Indonesia. The company form applied is a Limited Liability Company (PT) with a line and staff organization system. The employee work system is based on the division of working hours consisting of shift and non-shift employees. The main equipment design in this factory is an acrylic acid stripper column which functions to separate a mixture of acrylic acid and propylene. This acrylic acid stripper column is operated at a pressure of 18.72 psi with a temperature of 388 K. Economic analysis of the factory shows that the factory is feasible to build. With a Break Even Point (BEP) value of 53.97%, Payback Period (PBP) of 3.113 years, Rate of Investment (ROI) of 32.12%, and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 22.746%.
Keywords: propylene, oxygen, distillation column, acrylic acid, propylene oxidation
