El 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) tiene un gran potencial para diversas industrias, incluyendo la química, cosmética, agrícola y farmacéutica. El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo realizar la evaluación técnico-económica preliminar y diseño conceptual de una planta de producción de 2,3-BDO a partir de bagazo de caña de azúcar por la ruta fermentativa mediante el empleo del simulador SuperPro DesignerÒ, con el fin de determinar los indicadores productivos y de rentabilidad más importantes bajo las condiciones económicas actuales de Cuba. La planta procesará 400 toneladas métricas (TM) de bagazo por año y producirá anualmente 40 TM de 2,3-BDO. Se necesitan USD $ 26,589 millones para erigir la planta de producción propuesta, con un costo de operación anual de USD $ 1,483 millones y unas ganancias netas anuales de USD $ 5,520 millones. Se obtendrá un valor actual neto, tasa interna de retorno y periodo de recuperación de la inversión de 14,067 millones, 18,56% y 4,82 años, siempre y cuando el precio de venta del 2,3-BDO sea de USD $ 220/kg. El estudio de sensibilidad realizado indica que, para un precio unitario de venta de 2,3-BDO menor de USD $ 150/kg, la propuesta tecnológica comienza a ser no rentable. El proyecto de planta simulado en este estudio se clasifica como no competitivo debido a que el precio de venta del 2,3-BDO fijado para obtener indicadores económicos rentables y factibles es muy superior al rango establecido internacionalmente y en otros estudios para este indicador
