| Summary: | Acrylamide can be obtained by reacting acrylonitrile with water which is called the
hydration process. Reaction that takes place in a fixed bed reactor at a temperature of 120 ° C
and a pressure of 4 atm. Acrylamide crystalline products have purity of up to 99% by mass. To
produce crystalline acrylamide 45,000 tons / year acrylonitrile much needed 4695.4502 kg /
hour and as much water 34038.9514 kg / hour.
Acylamide plant is planned to be established in Cilegon, Banten, with an area of
30.000m
2
of land and total 180 employees. The plant is designed with a capacity of 45.000
tons/year and operates for 24 hours a day and 330 days a year continously. In the process takes
as much fuel as 608.109 tons / year, as the river water needs 9258.3333 kg/hour, 785,41 kVA
electrical needs, and the needs of the total steam as much as 2605.13 kg / hour.
Fixed capital required is $ 15,783,348.09 + Rp38.238.864.773, 3 whereas working
capital of $ 17,364,955.846 + Rp4.681.764.712, 57. Profit before tax is Rp113.120.117.116, 58
and a profit after tax is Rp56.560.058.558, 29. From the calculations, Return on Investment
(ROI) 62.74% before tax and after tax of 31.37%. Pay Out Time (POT) before tax is 1.37 years
and after tax is 2.42 years. Break even point (BEP) at 45.31% capacity and Shut Down Point at
33.98% capacity. Discounted Cash Flow Rate of Return (DCFRR) of 34.57%.
Based on the economic evaluation, the acrylamide plant with a capacity of 45,000 tons /
year is quite interesting to study further.
