Methyl Oleate Production By Esterification Reaction
Production Cost Report | Chemicals
Details: Germany - based plant Q1 2025 | From $ USD
This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of methyl oleate production by esterification reaction. Methyl oleate is a chemical ester that is obtained by esterification reaction. The process begins by reacting methanol or methyl alcohol with oleic acid in the presence of an acid catalyst. In this reaction, sulfuric acid is utilized to catalyze the reaction and generate methyl oleate as the final product, along with water as the byproduct.

Feedstocks for Methyl Oleate
Methyl oleate is an ester that is obtained by using methanol and oleic acid as its major feedstocks. The procurement of methyl oleate and its feedstocks is influenced by different prominent factors, including the production cost, market prices, stability in the supply chain, and demand from the downstream industries, including chemical, petrochemical, textile, and polymer industries. Additionally, factors such as the availability of its raw materials (such as natural gas, olive oils, etc.), activities in the upstream industries, logistics, trading, and transportation activities, along with trade and governmental policies altogether, help in determining its overall procurement on a large scale.
