Diethyl ether must be stored carefully due to risk of peroxide formation, requiring pressure drums with an inhibitor like 1-napthol. While raw materials are high purity and costly, the high quality diethyl ether can compete. Dahej is selected as the plant location due to availability of water, electricity, raw materials, market access, and transportation options like railway, road and port. The overall diethyl ether project is profitable with a net profit of Rs. 777490691.3, payback period of 29.68 months, and rate of return of 66.9%.

Diethyl Ether (DEE): The Conclusion
- 1. 60 Chapter 9 Conclusion The storage of Diethyl ether is of major concern, because of peroxide formation. Diethyl ether must be stored in pressure drums with an inhibitor such as 1- napthol. The raw materials used for process is high purity of nearly laboratory grade and therefore of high cost of diethyl ether manufacturing, but due to high quality of diethyl ether it can compete to other manufacturer. I have selected Dahej, as a plant location because of the easily availability of water, electricity, raw material, market for diethyl ether, railway, road and port for transportation. The overall project is being profitable because it has net profit of Rs. 777490691.3 with the payout period of 29.68 months and with the rate of return of 66.9 %
