This report presents a cost analysis of polymer grade (PG) Ethylene production from hydrous ethanol using a dehydration process. The process under analysis is similar to the processes developed by Braskem and Petrobras. In this process, the reaction system is composed of multiple reactors and multiple furnaces. Before feeds each reactor, steam is mixed with ethanol as diluent to avoid an excessive temperature drop as dehydration reaction proceeds. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Ethene, Ethyl Alcohol, Vapor-Phase Dehydration, Fixed-Bed Reactor, Renewable Feedstock, Green Ethylene
