VAPORIZER PURCHASED COST ESTIMATION

Specifications; D=1.8 m, L=3 m, P=30 bar


Purchased cost of vaporizer, C
p
, is read from the Figure A.13 [Ref1] as 20000 $. Since P=
30 bar=29 barg pressure factor F
P
is read from the Table A.19 as F
p
=2.492.5 [Ref1].
Carbon-steel can be selected as construction material. From Table A.20 bare module
factor for vaporizer is found as FBM=2.8 [Ref1].
Then, purchased cost for the vaporizer is calculated:

based on mid-1996.




Hence, the purchased cost of the vaporizer is estimated to be 97219 $.

REACTOR PURCHASED COST ESTIMATION
For the reactor used in cumene plant of 3 m length and 1 m diameter, volume is 2.36 m
3
.
Selecting carbon steel as manufacturing material.
Ce=CS
n
where Ce is purchased equipment cost and C is cost constant from [Ref.2] in $.
2004 Chemical engineering cost index is taken as 457.4 [Ref2]
Ce= CS
n
=9300$ (2.36)
0.4
=13111 $ based on mid-2004.




Reactor includes cooler section so cooler economic design is required for all cost analysis
of reactor. For the cooler used in cumene plant of 18.84 m
2
heat transfer area:
Purchased Cost= (bare cost from figure)* Type factor*Pressure factor
Bare cost is taken from figure A.1, pressure factor is taken from Table A.19 type factor is taken
from Table A.2 [Ref1].
Purchased Cost=8000*1.0*1.0=27000 based on mid-1996




Hence, the purchased cost of the reactor is estimated to be 33236 $.
COOLER-CONDENSER PURCHASED COST ESTIMATION
For the cooler-condenser used in cumene plant of 367.31 m
2
heat transfer area, totally:
Purchased Cost= (bare cost from figure)* Type factor*Pressure factor
Bare cost is taken from figure A.1, pressure type factor is taken from Table A.19 [Ref1].
Purchased Cost=25000*1.0*1.0=25000 based on mid-1996
