Battery-limits estimates
There is an imaginary boundary drawn around the
facility to be estimated.
It is assumed that all raw materials, utilities,
services, etc. are available at the boundary in the
proper quantity and with the desired quality to
manufacture the product in question.
Only costs within this boundary are estimated
hence the name battery-limits estimate.

A.2 Example:
Problem Statement:
Estimate the xed capital investment of a 75,000
ton/yr maleic anhydride plant in 2001.
Solution:
From Table 4.7 the xed investment per annual ton
capacity for 60,000 ton/yr capacity is $270/annual ton.
Therefore, the xed capital investment of the plant is
75,000 ton/yr $270 per annual ton = $20,300,000.

A.3 Example
Problem Statement:
A company is considering of building a new ethylene oxide
plant using direct oxidation of ethylene.
The company built a similar unit in 1997 that had a rated
capacity of 100,000 tons annually for $66,000,000.
The projected production of the new facility is to be
150,000 tons annually.
Estimate the xed capital investment in late 2001 dollars to
produce the required ethylene oxide.
31
Solution:
CE Index for 1997 = 386.5
CE Index for late 2001 = 396.8
Cost of 150tpa_97
= Cost of 100tpa_97 (150 tpa/100 tpa)^0.7
= 66,000,000 (1.5)^0.7 = 79,692,070
Cost of 150tpa_2001
= 79,692,070 (396.8/386.5) = 80,722,000

Solution:
Chlorine required = 4,000,000 lb/yr (1ton/2000
lb)/yr = 2,000 tons/yr
Yearly capacity of the chlorine plant = 100 tons/day
330 days/yr = 33,000 tons/yr

Multiple-factor Method.
Consists of three components:
Labor:
assumed 2 months training, 3 months
start-up for each operator and
maintenance person.

Commercialization cost:
Included temporary construction,
adjustment and testing of equipment and
instruments, etc., but not eld indirect
costs
May be estimated as 5% of the batterylimits direct cost.
71
Start-up inefciency
Takes into account those operating runs
when production cannot be maintained
or false starts.
For estimating purposes, 4% of the annual
operating expense may be used.
The sum of all three components is an estimate
of start-up expenses.
