Butane Production by Fractional Distillation Method
Production Cost Report | Chemicals
Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024 | From $ USD
This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of butane production by fractional distillation method. The production of butane is initiated by the fractional distillation of crude oil. It is one of the initial gaseous compounds obtained at the top distillation tower during fractional distillation of crude oil at around 25 to 50 °C. It is then purified to produce butane as the end product.
Top Producers of Butane
- Exxon Mobil Corporation
- British Petroleum Plc.
- Total S.A.
- Air Liquide
- Royal Dutch Shell
Feedstock of Butane
Butane is a petrochemical compound obtained by processing crude oil that serves as its chief raw material. The procurement of crude oil is governed by various crucial factors, including the availability, processing, and extraction cost of crude oil, along with the production cost of butane and variation in its market prices, etc. Similarly, vital factors associated with its market dynamics, such as trade policies, transportation, governmental regulations, and stability in its supply chain, also influence its procurement around the world. Moreover, its demand observed in the petrochemical, rubber, resin, and chemical industries directly impacts its market growth and plays a significant role in governing its procurement across borders. Hence, all of these factors, including its demand, supply, and prices, altogether determine its procurement in the global market.
