Abstract：Based on laboratory and pilot experiments of hydration and hydrogenation of acrolein for production of 1,3-propanediol (PDO), the Superpro Designer? emluator was applied to simulate the scale-up process for 10000 t/a PDO production, coupling with costing and economic evaluation on the flowsheet. Simulation results show that the process design is reasonable with main process data complying with experimental results. The economic analysis indicates that raw material cost shares 49% of operating cost, equipment purchase cost is about 22.42 million yuan and the total investment is of approximately 150.88 million yuan. The expected returns on investment reach 28.21% as the after-tax profit is about 42.56 million yuan annually.
