Executive Summary Perancangan Pabrik Betaine Surfactant Dari Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil (HPKO) Dengan Desain Alat Utama Distilasi DMAPA (T-202)

ABSTRACT
Betaine surfactant, widely used as a co-agent in various chemical products, is primarily applied in the formulation of personal care items, classifying it as a bio-resource. Indonesia’s domestic surfactant production currently stands at 70,000 tons per year, which remains insufficient to meet national demand. Consequently, the country relies on imports, which have increased by 8.15% annually. According to Statistics Indonesia (BPS) in 2020, surfactant imports reached 20,000 tons per year. Hydrogenated palm kernel oil (HPKO) serves as the primary raw material for betaine surfactant production. The proposed plant will be located in Dumai, Riau, Indonesia, due to its proximity to raw material sources, efficient transportation access, and available utilities.
The production process of betaine from HPKO involves three main stages: amidation, separation and carboxymethylation. Amidation entails the reaction between HPKO and DMAPA, yielding amidoamine with a conversion rate of 85%. The separation process uses two distillation columns to isolate amidoamine and DMAPA. The final distillation stage separates DMAPA from water, producing betaine with a 99% conversion rate. The plant’s utilities, including water and electricity, are supplied through an internal treatment system with capacities of 48,014.391 kg/h and 420.2 kW, respectively. Wastewater is treated through a multi-stage process comprising screening, oil separation, equalization, primary treatment, aeration, and disinfection. Instrumentation includes sensors and controllers supported by safety devices such as alarms, pressure safety valves, check valves, gate valves, hand control valves, vents, and anti-surge control valves.
Profitability analysis of the plant indicates a Net Present Value (NPV) of $16,583,381, Return on Investment (ROI) of 36.93%, Payback Period (PBP) of 1.61 years, Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 27.77%, and Break-Even Point (BEP) at 35.84% capacity. Sensitivity analysis reveals that fluctuations in raw material costs have minimal impact on NPV, indicating financial stability under varying input prices. However, changes in product pricing, fixed capital investment, and operating costs significantly influence NPV. Based on these findings, the establishment of the betaine surfactant plant is deemed highly feasible.
