Curcumin is a bioactive substance found naturally in the rhizomes of the Curcuma longa(turmeric) plant. It is responsible for turmeric’s yellow color and has various industrial applications. It is a natural colorant and flavouring agent in the food industry. Curcumin's anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties are utilized in the manufacturing of health supplements and drug delivery systems.
It is used in cosmetics and personal care sectors, mainly skincare and hair products. Being an eco-friendly alternative, Curcumin is utilized as a dyeing agent in the textile industry. In agricultural implementations, it is used as a natural pesticide and fungicide and as an additive in animal feed. Curcumin’s fluorescent properties are leveraged both in biotechnology for making biosensors as well as nanotechnology for creating nanoparticles for drug delivery. In addition, it is used in antimicrobial films to extend the shelf life of food products.
The market of curcumin is driven by several key factors such as increased demand for natural and organic products across various industries that include, food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and personal care. Curcumin’s health benefits due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties have led to its extensive use in dietary supplements, functional foods, and pharmaceuticals. The demand is also influenced by its growing use in the food and beverage industry.
In the cosmetics and personal care industry, the benefits of natural ingredients in skincare and hair care products have significantly boosted its demand. Also, a shift towards using sustainable and eco-friendly dyes by the textile industry has resulted in an increased demand. The agriculture sector's implementation of curcumin as a natural pesticide and fungicide supports its market growth.
The improved and efficient formulation of curcumin has made it more accessible for industrial use. Hence, the modifications in its demand in various industries like food and beverage, textile, health and personal care, cosmetics, and agriculture, along with its production prices, market prices, and logistics, directly influence industrial curcumin procurement in the global market.
Raw Material for Curcumin Production
According to the curcumin manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of curcumin include rhizome of Curcuma longa and solvents (ethanol, isopropanol).
Manufacturing Process of Curcumin
The extensive Curcumin production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:
- From Rhizomes of Curcuma longa(turmeric) plant: Extraction of Curcumin from the rhizomes of Curcuma longa involves several steps. First, the extraction of curcumin and other compounds is done by grounding the rhizomes and washing their powder with solvents like ethanol or isopropanol.
The extract is then filtered and centrifuged to remove any impurities. It is further concentrated by evaporation to obtain a curcumin-rich oleoresin. For obtaining high-quality curcumin crystals, oleoresin is crystallized with isopropanol at low temperatures. In the final step, the crystals are dried in a vacuum tray giving high-purity curcumin powder.
Curcumin is an orange-yellow colored crystalline powder. It has a melting point of 183 °C and a molecular weight of 368 g/mol. It is insoluble in water but soluble in solvents like acetone, methanol, ethanol, etc, and alkali solutions. Comprising of long crystals, Curcumin shows low compressibility and a tapped density of 1.116 g/mL. It remains thermally stable up to 150°C.
It belongs to the category of polyphenolic compounds featuring keto-enol tautomerism and potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Stable in acidic and neutral conditions but tends to degrade in alkaline conditions and light exposure.
