Ethyl Maltol Production Cost Breakup By Complex Chemical Reaction Route

Details: Germany - based plant Q1 2024  | From $ USD

This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of ethyl maltol production by complex chemical reaction route. Production of ethyl maltol is achieved by a complex chemical reaction with multiple sequential steps. The process is initiated by the chemical reaction between Grignard reagent, furfural, and water that gives furfuryl alcohol. It is further chlorinated in the presence of chlorine and then heated to undergo hydrolysis in the presence of an acidic medium. The process results in yielding crude maltol as a resultant compound. It is then purified by sublimation and recrystallization in ethanol and results in the production of ethyl maltol as the end product.

Top Producers of Ethyl Maltol

  • Anhui Jinhe Industrial
  • Foodchem International Corporation
  • Xiamen Bestally Biotechnology
  • ZHAOQING PERFUMERY CO.,LTD.
  • Beijing Tianlihai Chemical Co., Ltd.

Feedstocks for Ethyl Maltol

Ethyl maltol is produced using Grignard reagent, furfural, chlorine, and ethanol as some of its major feedstocks. The procurement of its feedstocks is largely impacted by different factors, including the availability of raw materials from the upstream industries, along with the production rate and cost of the feedstocks, etc. Additionally, other vital factors, such as the demand from the downstream industries, stability in the supply chain, transportation, logistics, and trade policies altogether, can influence the overall procurement of the feedstocks of ethyl maltol on a large scale.
