This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of producing Methyl Ethyl Ketone by direct oxidation. This process is initiated with the direct oxidation of an n-butene feed in the presence of palladium and copper catalysts used as nitrate salts instead of chlorides. Moreover, to improve the activity and selectivity, a soluble mixture of P-V-MO oxides and an acetonitrile ligand is often utilized. Additionally, the highly active catalyst and the process's simplicity lead to lower capital requirements and lower product value than the other manufacturing processes.
