Pra Rancangan Pabrik Formaldehyde Darimetanol dan Udara dengan Kapasitas 15.000 Ton / Tahun
Abstract
The Formaldehyde plant gives very good prospect, considering the
requirement of Formaldehyde in Indonesia which progressively increase.
Preliminary design of Formaldehyde plantfrom methanol and air is planned to
built in Bontang, theprovince of East Borneo, in the area of land of 10,979 m
withproduction capacity 15,000 tons/year. This chemical plant will be operated
for 330 days or 24 hours a day with total 120 employees. Raw materials needed
are methanol 6,269.6542 tons/year and air 54,658.6958 tons/year. The production
process will be operatedat temperature 350°C andpressure about 1,2 atm using
a fixed bed reactor, as a reactor cooler is used DowtermA. The convert reaction
is 96.81%, resulting product formaldehyde, water, Carbon Monoxid, Carbon
Dioxid, Dimethil Ether. Thisplant are needed 5.841,4232 Tig/hour ofwaterfrom
Sangatta river which proceced in utility unit, 20.286,6920 kg/hour ofsteam, and
180 kWh of electricity power provided by PLN and also need a generator as
reserve. A parameter of appropriatness uses an economic analysis with total
capital investment 97.846.971.106 consisted of Rp 59.908.867.782,0555 as a
Fixed Capital Investment, and Rp 17.696.202.288 as a Working Capital. Total
Cost Rp 97.846.97'1.107and Annual Sales Rp 115.500.000.000 thus it can get
profit Rp 17.653.028.894 before taxes, and Rp 8.826.514.447 after taxes. A count
result ofparameter after taxes is percentage ofReturn OnInvestment (ROT) 32.63
%, Pay Out Time (POT) 4.4year after taxes, Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) 20.07
%, Break Event Point (BEP) 40.36 %, while Shut Down Point (SDP) 20.12 %.
From the analyses above it showed that the result was satisfied so theplant are
interesting and appropriate to build.
