Hydrogenated Castor Oil Production Cost Breakup By Catalytic Hydrogenation Reaction

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

This report proffers the thorough economics of hydrogenated castor oil production by catalytic hydrogenation reaction. The production process is initiated by the chemical reaction between castor oil and hydrogen, where the hydrogen is blown through the content of castor oil. The reaction is carried at a high temperature ranging between 125 to 135 °C, resulting in the hydrogenation of castor oil and producing white-waxy solid hydrogenated castor oil as the final product.

Top Producers of Hydrogenated Castor Oil

  • BASF
  • Vertellus
  • ROYAL CASTOR PRODUCTS
  • TGV Group
  • Alpha Hi-Tech

Feedstock for Hydrogenated Castor Oil

Hydrogenated castor oil is a waxy-solid compound produced by using hydrogen and castor oil as its chief feedstocks. The procurement of hydrogenated castor oil and its feedstocks is determined by several factors that are related to its market dynamics.

Factors such as the production cost, market prices, supply chain stability, along demand from the downstream industries (including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, rubber, and polymer industries, etc.) altogether play a vital role in impacting its procurement on a large scale. Moreover, other factors, including the availability of the raw materials (such as hydrogen, castor seed, etc.)., activities in the upstream industries, trading and transportation activities, logistics, and governmental policies, also influence its overall procurement in the global chemical market.
