Dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) is a white crystalline solid with a camphor-like odor. It is used in resins,

mainly unsaturated polyester resins, in inks, adhesives, and paints.

The Intratec portfolio (www.intratec.us/our-portfolio) includes reports examining specific DCPD

production processes. Each report presents one-time costs associated with the construction of an

industrial plant and the continuing costs associated with the daily operation of such a plant. General

information included in our reports is presented below.

* Product(s) generated & raw material(s) consumed

* Physico-chemistry highlights

* Industrial site production capacity definition

* Detailed process block flow scheme & description

* Key process input & output figures (including raw material(s) consumption)

* Labor requirements

CAPITAL INVESTMENT BREAKDOWN

* Total fixed capital required (ISBL, OSBL and contingency)

* Working capital

* Costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up

* Multi-regional fixed capital analysis

PRODUCTION COST DETAILED LOOK

* Manufacturing variable costs (raw materials and utilities required)

* Manufacturing fixed costs (e.g., labor and maintenance costs, operating charges, plant overhead)

* Depreciation and corporate overhead costs

* Production cost history (4-year timeframe)

About our Methodology

Intratec has distilled the expertise gained from more than a decade supporting companies worldwide to devise consistent

methodologies, which ensures the development of holistic, coherent and consistent reports.

Intratec's highly experienced engineers start the development of process economics reports with in-depth, comprehensive research on

the technology examined, encompassing patents and available technical literature, non-confidential information provided by

technology licensors and Intratec's in-house database.

This exhaustive research provides a clear and consistent understanding of the process technology studied, including chemical,

biological and/or physical transformations occurring in the target process, as well as reactants required and products formation. That

knowledge is compiled into a detailed process block flow scheme and a mapping of key process input & output figures (including raw

materials consumption).

Finally, in the assessment of the economic figures of the process technology under analysis, Intratec’s team relies on an extensive in-

house database and robust cost models. Our cost models were founded on a number of established cost-estimating methods, based

on mathematical and statistical processing of an extensive volume of actual cost data of well-known industrial processes.

Reports Focused on DCPD Production Economics

ECONOMICS OF DICYCLOPENTADIENE PRODUCTION PROCESS (DCPD E11A)

This report presents the economics of Dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) production from a crude C5s stream, generating C5 raffinate as by-

product. The economic analysis is based on the construction of a plant in the USA.

ECONOMICS OF DICYCLOPENTADIENE PRODUCTION PROCESS (DCPD E11C)

This study also concerns DCPD production. However, different from the report “DCPD E11A”, this study assumes a plant located in

China.
