Furfural Production From Hemicellulose
Production Cost Report | Chemicals
Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024 | From $ USD
This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of furfural production from hemicellulose. The production process is initiated by hydrolysis of hemicellulose or xylan. The process is carried out in the presence of an acid catalyst such as sulfuric acid and yields xylose. The reaction is further processed by dehydration of xylose on heating and results in the production of furfural as the final product.
Top Producers of Furfural
- Illovo Sugar Africa (Pty.) Ltd
- DalinYebo
- Trans Furans Chemicals bvba
- Central Romana Corporation
- Linzi Organic Chemical Inc. Ltd.
Feedstock for Furfural
Furfural is an organic chemical compound, prepared by using hemicellulose or xylan as its primary feedstock. The procurement of furfural is determined by some crucial factors that are associated with its market dynamics, including the production cost of furfural, the availability of its raw materials (including xylan, which is further used for furfural production), along with the demand observed for furfural in the agrochemical, pharmaceutical and chemical industries, etc. Additionally, other factors such as the stability in the supply chain, variations in its market prices, logistics, transportation, and trading activities, economic and financial conditions, and governmental policies prominently govern its procurement across the globe.
