Zinc Sulfate Heptahydrate Production Cost Breakup From Smithsonite

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

This report proffers the thorough economics of zinc sulfate heptahydrate production from smithsonite. The synthesis of zinc sulfate heptahydrate begins by processing smithsonite mineral ore, passing through grinding, roasting, and leaching the powder in sulfuric acid. The process is further processed by filtration, evaporation (through heating), and cooling to obtain the resultant product (i.e., hydrated zinc sulfate) which on crystallization leads to the production of zinc sulfate heptahydrate as the end product.

Feedstock for Zinc Sulfate Heptahydrate

Zinc sulfate heptahydrate is a hydrated form of zinc salt obtained by using zinc mineral ore content, specifically smithsonite, as its major feedstock. The procurement of zinc sulfate heptahydrate is dependent upon some crucial aspects related to its complex market dynamics, including the availability and extraction cost of smithsonite ore (that serves as the prime mineral for zinc sulfate heptahydrate production), along with its processing and production cost, etc. Other major factors, including the stability in its supply chain, variations in its market prices around the world, along with trade, logistics, and transportation activities to ensure a fine distribution, altogether determine its procurement worldwide.
