3 G E N E R A L DESCRIPTION Plant Design Competition aims to hone participants' plant designing competence and regional awareness by focusing on empowering the nation through coal-based chemical with the given specific theme. The process is focused on producing the intermediate chemical product. We don t concern on the process to produce the downstream chemical products or end products. Participants are undergraduate students from various nations in Southeast Asian countries and beyond. 1

4 BACKGROUND Southeast Asia has became an important player in global coal markets and will continue its role for the coming decades. Indonesia remains one of the world s major producers and exporters, while the broader region becomes a key centre for coal demand. At the end of 2011, Southeast Asia had 28 billion tonnes in total coal reserves, or 2.7% of the world total. The vast majority of these are located in Indonesia, which contains significant hard and brown coal, and there are some hard coal reserves in Vietnam. Existing coal reserves in the region would be sufficient to sustain current rates of production for 80 years, though there is large potential for resources to be converted to reserves as exploration and production expands, particularly in Indonesia. Southeast Asia s reserves are predominantly sub-bituminous coal, bituminous coal and lignite of low and medium energy content, making them well-suited for use in power generation. Coal use continuously increase as a replacement for oil and natural gas. ASEAN plays significant roles in coal consumption and production in Asia Pacific. Using the value chain approach, it is projected that coal producer countries in ASEAN will have the chance to maximize the market through bilateral trade or AEC framework. The AEC can foster market integration in ASEAN, builds awareness of ASEAN countries to develop their infrastructure in energy sufficiency, as well as develops clean coal technology. On the other hand, energy source is not the only function of coal. Nowadays, coal is being developed as the substitute of petrochemicals feedstock. Petrochemicals are chemical products made from the hydrocarbons present in raw natural gas and petroleum crude oil. Petrochemicals are used to manufacture thousands of products 2

5 people use every day, like plastics, soaps, fertilizers, electronic equipment, clothing, and a host of others. But the problem is natural gas and petroleum crude oil is getting smaller. Based on the reserve to production ratio of fossil energy in Indonesia, coal has the biggest potential with lifetime of 75 years. While gas potential would be finished in the next 33 years. Oil is the smallest potential of fossil energy resources with potential last only until the next 12 years, if no new reserves are found. Feedstocks are the various hydrocarbons derived from the refining of oil, gas and coal. These are then further refined to produce chemical products. They are the building blocks of the chemical industry. These building blocks are converted into a wide range of chemical products with a wide array of uses. At the feedstock stage, they are usually known as intermediates then the intermediates are processed into plastics, liquids and resins which ultimately are turned into useful products. Some feedstocks, however, are used directly to produce chemicals, such as methane and BTX. But ethane, propane, butanes, naphtha and gas oil are optional feedstocks for steam crackers that produce intermediate chemical feedstocks. Other examples of intermediate feedstocks include ethylene, propylene, butenes and butadiene. Coal-derived feedstock is predominantly methanol, obtained from a coal-toliquids process. Coal can also be gasified to produce feedstocks. The primary raw chemical input produced from coal is methanol, which is produced through coal gasification and subsequently, methanol synthesis and refining. Coal s modern resurgence as chemical feedstocks is centered in China. Since 2000, China has been investing an increasing amount into the production of coal-based chemicals, substituting these for traditional crude oil based processes. The plausible reasons are the cheap price of coal and the strategic desire to be self-sufficient in resource inputs. 3

6 The industrial base originally focused on five areas of chemical replacement. Those five base chemical products currently made from coal in China are: Light oil (containing benzene, toluene and xylene) as a by-product of coke oven steel industry operations; Acetylene used for production of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) and 1,4 Butanediol (BDO). VCM is used to produce polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics. BDO is used for a variety of plastics, elastic; Urea and Ammonia used mainly for the production of fertilizers; Coal to Olefins (CTO), also referred to more commonly as alkenes; Monoethylene Glycol (MEG) production, utilizing a new process route based on gasification of coal with several further reactions to obtain methyl nitrate into dimethyl oxalate into MEG. 4

11 PLANT OVERVIEW The scope of this competition is designing a plant which produce intermediate chemical product, like Styrene, Polyethylene, Propylene, Caprolactam, Vinyl Chloride Monomer, Ethylene Glycol, etc. The raw material of the plant must be coal. Participants have to design the first process of converting the coal, whether it is pyrolysis, hydropyrolysis, or gasification. Then, participants will design the next processes which produce the chemical product. We do not concern about the process which converts intermediate chemical products to downstream chemical products and end products, such as Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), Styrene Acrylonitrile (SAN), plastic, rubber, etc. Participants are not allowed to produce coal-based fuel, like diesel and gasoline. Participants should process the byproducts in the plant only until the product can be sold (not to process them into chemical products as well). If byproducts can be solddirectly, then the process is not required. All processes in the plant which is designed should be sustainable and environmentally friendly. 9
