Comparative cost estimates of motor gasoline, L gasoline (aviation gasoline) and -170 degrees C gasoline cut as starting gasoline for DHD (in German)

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6129034
Tables compare the various elements of cost in producing auto gasoline with distillation cutoff 185/sup 0/C, C/sub 4/-free gasoline with distillation cutoff 170/sup 0/C, and aviation gasoline with distillation cutoff 150/sup 0/C. The test explains that the price of the starting material for dehydrogenation could only be estimated under certain assumptions to bring it into line with the costs of motor and aviation fuel, because the dehydrogenation step was not simply part of hydrogenation but was interpolated between stabilization and scrubbing. The text also clarifies other estimation procedures. The estimated cost of production follows: auto gasoline, 337.13 marks per metric ton; C/sub 4/-free gasoline, 349.65 marks per metric ton; aviation gasoline, 367.98 marks per metric ton. Also included are tables comparing power consumption, operational balances, specific operations, and installation costs. 5 tables.
