Lecithin Production From Soybean Oil
Production Cost Report | Food and Beverages
Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024 | From $ USD
This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of lecithin production from soybean oil. The preparation process begins with the degumming of soybean oil. Initially, the oil extracted from soybean is processed through degumming by hydrating the phosphatides present in the oil in the presence of water. The process is followed by centrifugation and separation of the sludge containing lecithin. The compound is then dried by heating and then cooled to obtain lecithin as the end product.
Top Producers of Lecithin
- Archer Daniels Midland Company
- Cargill, Inc.
- Caldic Canada Inc.
- GIIAVA (India) Pvt Ltd.
- Haneil Soyatech Pvt Ltd.
Feedstock for Lecithin
Lecithin is a mixture of fats and phospholipids obtained from soybean oil that serves as its major raw material. The procurement of lecithin is largely dependent upon vital factors, including the harvesting and availability of soybean seeds as well as extraction and processing cost of soybean oil from soybean seeds, supply chain stability, etc. Moreover, factors such as the variation in its market prices, trade, and transportation activities also influence its procurement around the world. Similarly, some aspects, including the governmental policies, socioeconomic conditions, and demand observed in the food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, coatings, plastic, rubber, and textile industries, are highly essential for its procurement around the world.
