Taurine Production Cost Breakup From Ammonolysis Reaction

Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024  | From $ USD

This report proffers the thorough economics of taurine production from ammonolysis reaction. The preparation process is initiated by the chemical reaction between ethylene oxide and sodium bisulfite that yields isethionic acid as an intermediate compound. The intermediate is treated with ammonia, leading to ammonolysis and results in the production of taurine as the end product.

Top Producers of Taurine

  • Foodchem International Corporation
  • Qianjiang Yongan Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
  • Mitsui Chemicals, Inc.
  • The Honjo Chemical Corporation
  • Stauber USA

Feedstock for Taurine

Taurine is an organic compound synthesized chemically by using sulfurous acid and aziridine or ethylene oxide, sodium bisulfite, and ammonia as some of its major feedstocks. The procurement of taurine is influenced by several factors related to its market dynamics, including the variations in its market prices, production cost, the stability in its supply chain, and logistics etc.

Similarly, aspects such as the financial condition and governmental policies have a strong impact on its global procurement. Additionally, another prominent factor such as the availability of its raw materials (including sulfurous acid and aziridine, or ethylene oxide, sodium bisulfite, and ammonia for the preparation of taurine), its demand observed in the pharmaceutical, food, and beverages industries, along with the trading and distribution activities altogether determine its procurement.
