Production Of Methyl Ethyl Ketone (mek).
Production of Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK). Exploring Business Opportunity in Butanone Industry.
MEK is a liquid solvent used in surface coatings, adhesives, printing inks, chemical intermediates, magnetic tapes and lube oil dewaxing agents. MEK also is used as an extraction medium for fats, oils, waxes and resins. It is a highly efficient and versatile solvent for surface coatings.
Projects- Project Reports & Profiles
Methyl ethyl ketone is a flammable liquid. It is partially soluble in water, and soluble in most other organic solvents. It will float on water while it rapidly dissolves in it. Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) worldwide is, primarily, produced with n butane/2-butene as the raw material via sec butyl Alcohol (SBA) route as 90-95% of SBA produced is utilized for manufacture of MEK.

Production
The main commercial production route for methyl ethyl ketone is through the dehydrogenation of secondary butanol although newer technology involves the direct oxidation of n-butane in solution, using palladium and cupric chlorides as catalysts. The Chinese market is the main driver for the demand of MEK.

Uses of Methyl Ethyl Ketone (C4H8O)
Over 50 % of the demand for Methyl ethyl ketone products stems from the paints and coatings industry as a low viscosity solution can be obtained without them affecting the film properties of the product. These lacquers are used in the automotive, electrical goods, and furniture industries. It’s as effective as a surface coating solvent that it has become almost vital to the development of high solids coatings that reduce external emissions.

Market Outlook
India Methyl Ethyl Ketone Market
In India, MEK is being produced with a plant capacity of 10KT per annum. Yearly production of MEK in India is less in comparison to the increasing demand witnessed in the previous years. Due to lack of manufacturing facilities, MEK demand in the domestic market is being primarily met through imports. Since MEK is a petrochemical product, its demand and supply as well as its prices are directly related to the availability of crude oil. By end use, MEK market is majorly dependent on packaging and printing industries followed by adhesives and paints. In addition to this, increasing demand from pharmaceuticals and cosmetic industries is anticipated to fuel the demand for the product in the next five years.
