ABSTRACT
Methylene chloride (CH2Cl2) is one of the chloromethane compounds are
widely used in industrial processes, such as solvent in the paint industry and
vernish remover, an ingredient in the manufacture of adhesives, aerosol-making
material and widely used in other processes.
This plant is planned to operate for 330 days a year with methylene chloride
production capacity of 40.000 tons/year. The main raw materials required are
methyl chloride 99.5% as much as 27097.57 tons / year and 99.5% chlorine as
40.918,05 tons/year. Side products is HCl 30% solution whiches produced
60.035,74 tons/year and chloroform as much as 1.779,16 tons/year.
The process of manufacture of methylene chloride from methyl chloride and
chlorine is done by using thermal chlorination process. The reaction occurs in the
gas phase in the multitube pipe plug flow reactor at a temperature of 265 oC and
pressure of 3 atm. As a support, the utility plant unit supplies the needs of the
make-up water of 15.552,00 kg/hour that is obtained from the Cidanau, 193,27
kWh of electricity, compressed air up to 150 m3/hour and 4.323,61 kg/hour
steam.
This plant will be established in integrated industrial area in Cilegon,
Banten, West Java, with the considerations are close to the raw material of
chlorine and the water source Cidanau River, as well as the availability of land
and sea transportation to facilitate the marketing and delivering of products. The
plant methylene chloride has a number of employees 233 people and total plant
area of 75.000 m2.
Calculation of economic evaluation gives the following results: fixed capital
required is $ 12.008.395,28 + Rp 342.229.894.614,96 and working capital is $
17.827.378,29 + Rp 4.408.076.175,98. Production costs amounted to $
40.480.022,73 + Rp 77.945.330.132,34. At full production rate, obtained ROI
before tax is 44,18%, ROI after tax is 22,09%. POT before tax 1,85 year, POT
after tax is 3,12 years, with BEP at 42,04% capacity, SDP at 22,20% capacity,
and 24,44% of DCFRR. Based on consideration of the economic evaluation
results, the methylene chloride plant with the capacity of 40.000 tons / year is
worth to be studied further.
