Power consumption and skid-mounted units in chlor-alkali plants
Thread Content
Dear colleagues, how much electricity does a chlor-alkali plant with an annual production capacity of 30,000 tons consume per year? Furthermore, can a plant of this scale be designed as a skid-mounted unit? Thank you all for your replies!
The electricity consumption per ton of caustic soda is approximately 2,100–2,200 kWh; this figure can be used to calculate the annual electricity usage. To date, there are no reports of skid-mounted electrolysis units. The planned annual production capacity of 30,000 tons for Phase II is quite modest; unless the facility is located in an area with abundant electric power resources, it is not advisable to proceed with its construction
Why build such a small-scale chlor-alkali plant?

The power consumption per ton of caustic soda is 2,200 kWh for direct current and 200 kWh for alternating current, with 1.5 tons of salt required.
Skid mounting is difficult to accomplish, but it’s possible after improving the process! But can an approval be issued for less than 300,000 tons? Hard to say
It can be made into small撬 blocks. Is this an idea from foreign projects?
