Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Coumarin production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

Coumarin is an aromatic compound that is largely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, and perfumery industries. It is an organic chemical that is primarily used as an additive and flavoring agent in the food and pharmaceutical industries. It is utilized in the different applications associated with the production of food, perfumery, chemical drugs, and cosmetics on a large scale. It is also used as an odor enhancer in the production of soaps and more. Also, it has great medical and pharmaceutical significance. Coumarin is commonly used in the treatment of prostate cancer, as well as some of the other diseases, such as renal cell carcinoma and leukemia. It can prevent the side effects caused by radiotherapy and is very helpful during radiotherapy treatments.

The market for Coumarin is majorly driven by its demand associated with different market sectors, including chemical, pharmaceutical, medical, and perfumery industries. Its large-scale application as an odor enhancer or additive in the preparation and production of different varieties of perfumes causes shifts in its demand observed in perfumes and chemical industries. Also, its utilization as a component to produce pharmaceutical drugs with the ability to treat prostate cancer helps in strengthening its demand in the pharma sectors. The compound plays a vital role in the production of perfumes and helps in adding fragrance to food, rubber, and cosmetic products. Altogether, industrial Coumarin procurement in the global market is affected by its applications covering all these domains.

Raw Material for Coumarin Production

According to the Coumarin manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Coumarin include Salicylaldehyde-Acetic Anhydride-Sodium Acetate.

Manufacturing Process of Coumarin

The extensive Coumarin production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• From Salicylaldehyde, Acetic Anhydride, and Sodium Acetate: The synthesis of Coumarin involves a reaction between salicylaldehyde and acetic anhydride in the presence of a base catalyst. In this process, salicylaldehyde is reacted with acetic anhydride under heated conditions with sodium acetate as a base catalyst, leading to a condensation reaction forming Coumarin. After the reaction, the mixture is cooled and filtered to obtain pure Coumarin.

Coumarin is a colorless chemical compound with a molecular formula C9H6O2 and a molecular weight of 146.14 g/mol. It is a powdered chemical with a pleasant, fragrant vanilla odor and a bitter, aromatic, burning taste. Its boiling and melting point is measured approximately at 301 °C and 68 °C, respectively. It has a flash point at 150 °C, decomposes on heating at an elevated temperature, and releases acrid smoke and fumes in the air. It turns into a dimer on a long exposure to light, and its density is around 0.94 g/cm³. It is poorly soluble in water but soluble in different chemical solvents including alcohol, such as ethanol and others. Similarly, it is highly soluble in ether and chloroform. The compound is freely soluble in oils, aqueous alkalis, chlorinated and oxygenated solvents. However, it is poorly soluble in water.
