Texaco prices

The high cost of coal handling and preparation and treatment of effluents, compounded by continuing low prices for cmde oil and natural gas, has precluded significant exploitation of coal as a feedstock for methanol. A small amount of methanol is made from coal in South Africa for local strategic reasons. Tennessee Eastman operates a 195,000-t/yr methanol plant in Tennessee based on the Texaco coal gasification process to make the methyl acetate intermediate for acetic anhydride production (15). [Pg.278]

Toluene demand in 1996 increased because of the new Amoco and Mobil (Chalmette) disproportionation plants as well as other capacity changes at Coastal (Eagle Point), Phillips (Sweeney), Gulf Chemicals (Arochem plant, Puerto Rico), Koch, and Texaco (Huntsman, Port Arthur). Dewitt (71) forecasts continued increase for this appHcation at the rate of about 14% between 1995 and the year 2000. These will have a significant effect on toluene price and availabiUty in the later 1990s. On the other hand, toluene demand for gasoline blending is expected to decline by about 283 million Hters by 1997-1998. [Pg.186]

RWE-DEA (former Deutsche Texaco AG) is one of the leading companies in the development and conmercial application of processes using ion excnange resins as acidic catalysts. Our expertise comprises production of bulk chemicals, sucn as MTBE (refs. 2-3), isopropyl alcohol (refs. 2, 4-5) and sec-butyl alcohol (refs. 2, 6-7) as well as manufacture of low-volume chemicals sold at higner prices, sucn as methyl isobutyl ketone, methyl isopropenyl Ketone and methyl isopropyl ketone (refs. 8, 9-10) ... [Pg.487]

Phase I study showed the project could yield an 11.9% internal rate of return by assuming a zero cost for coke feedstock and selling electric power at market price and F-T wax as premium products. Based on this favorable result, Texaco proceeded to Phase II experimental work which validated the key design parameters used in Phase I study. The Texaco EECP project was completed in 2003 after the completion of Phases I and II (4,5). Phase III work was cancelled because of the unavailability of the project host site after the Chevron and Texaco merger. [Pg.153]
