    PROJECT DEFINITION

    The project is to develop a 100 MTPD Isopropyl Alcohol and


    50 MTPD Acetone production plant using propylene and water
    as raw materials at Keraniganj by the side of river Buriganga,
    Dhaka. The raw material propylene is imported from China
    and the weather condition varies from 140C to 340C with an
    average annual rainfall 1493mm.
    Design Basis
    Geological Data
    Soil Type
     Grey Floodplain Soils.
     Grey, finely mottled brown, seasonally flooded soils with seasonally acid top-
    soil and near neutral subsoils.
     Arsenic content is below WHO limit.
    Seismic condition
    Recent seismic data reveals that the earthquake magnitude ranges up to 6 in
    Richter Scale

     Average monthly humidity (minimum): 55%
    Plant Location

    Keraniganj is selected for the


    plant and the reasons behind
    choosing it-
    1. Easy supply of raw materials
    2. Unlimited fresh water supply
    3. Ease of water discharge
    system.
    4. Environmental factors
    5. Enough free space to build an
    industry
    Selection of Process
    IPA Production Plant
    Direct and Indirect Process
    Better successes achieved using Direct Process
    Lower energy cost than indirect process
    Indirect process is more corrosive.
    During Regeneration of Sulphuric Acid large amount of Sulpher Di Oxide
    is discharged
    Selection of Process
    IPA Production Plant
    The Cumene Hydroperoxide Process for Phenol and
    Acetone
     Isopropyl Alcohol Dehydrogenation
    Direct Oxidation of Hydrocarbons to a Number of
    Oxygeanted Products
    Selected process for IPA:

    Direct Hydration of Propylene


    Latest Process

    higher yields and productivity

    lower labor costs


    Selected process for Acetone:

    Dehydrogenation of Isopropyl Alcohol


    Raw Materials

     Propylene

     Water
    Reaction Involved

    IPA Production
    Propylene+ Water Isopropyl Alcohol

    Acetone Production
    Isopropyl Alcohol Acetone+ Hydrogen
    Process Description
    Propylene is heated , pressurized and then fed to the RD column with pressurized
    water. 91% IPA is produced from the RD column. Unreacted propylene is recycled
    and mixed with the feed stream. Some of the IPA is stored and some are fed to the
    Acetone reactor which is followed by the product acetone+hydrogen ,unreacted
    IPA is sent to a flash separator through a condenser. The gases consisting of the
    remaining quantities of IPA and acetone are absorbed into water using a water
    scrubber. The acetone + IPA obtained from the condenser and water +
    IPA+acetone are sent to an acetone distillation column that separates acetone as
    the top product and IPA + water as bottom product. The bottom product IPA+
    water is sent to a IPA column and then the separated IPA is recycled to the IPA
    feed. And the Acetone is stored.

    Conclusion

    CHE 408 is the beginning to familiarize with design on an industrial


    basis. As a Chemical Engineer, knowledge about basic considerations
    for chemical plant implementation will be achieved through this course
    and we are thankful to our supervisor Mr. Sirajul Haque Khan for his
    consistent help.
    Thank You!
