| dc.description.abstract | Poly (vinyl chloride), PVC, is the second most consumed thermoplastic in the world with great potential for industrial growth due to its great demand, versatility and employability. The literature points out that 80% of the PVC produced used the polymerization technique by suspension of the vinyl chloride monomer, the main raw material of the process. This process has 85 to 95% conversion, and the remaining percentage, being mostly made up of vinyl chloride monomer (main raw material of the process) must undergo purification processes due to the high hazard it presents to human life. . Therefore, this work will present the construction of a fictitious company called BiPlastic focused on the production of PVC together with a method of recycling and purifying the monomer in the production line itself. Simultaneously, it is intended that the company uses the monomer produced from natural sources, that is, without the use of fossil sources, commonly used by the current polymeric industries. As a result, the company's final product will be green PVC, whose presence is unusual in the current market environment. The objective of the work is to shape a business plan that assesses whether, when building a company with such specifications, there will be profit considering the current moment in the Portuguese and worldwide market. For this, from the literature and data provided by the main polymeric companies in the market, an annual production of 800,000 kg of the product was proposed and that, based on this data, all the necessary infrastructure for construction would be fitted of the company that it supported, including raw materials, labor and sales and marketing plan and all its financial plan, and the cost calculations involved in all stages were determined from literature and market data current. When carrying out the financial analysis and projections, it was possible to determine that, based on the calculated data and assumptions implemented during the work, that the company set up with such specifications is viable, presenting profit from its 6th year with possibilities to invest in new phases and guidelines to expand Biplastic and its production process. | pt_PT |
