Question

A preliminary design has been made for a plant to produce 10,000 metric tons per year. the major equipment items required are as follows. the plant operating rate will be 8,000 hours per year. the plant will be built on an existing site with adequate infrastructure to provide the ancillary requirements of the new plant (no offsite investment is needed).

Major equipment items: 1. Butanol vaporizer: shell and tube exchanger, kettle type, heat transfer area 15m^2, design pressure 5 bar, material carbon steel; 

2. Reactor feed heaters, (two): shell and tube, fixed head, heat transfer are 25m^2, design pressure 5 bar, material stainless steel;

3. Reactors, (three): shell and tube comstruction, fixed tube sheets, heat transfer area 50m^2, design pressure 5bar, material stainless steel;

4.Condenser: shell and tube heat exchanger, fixed tube sheets, heat transfer area 25m^2, design pressure 2 bar, material stainless steel;

*****TASK: Please perform the equipment cost of 1-4 above. (be as detailed as possible)
