Fumaric Acid Production Cost Report

Fumaric acid is an organic compound that is majorly employed as a food acidulant in the food and beverages industry. It is used as a valuable additive to enhance flavor in the production of wheat and corn tortillas, sourdough, fruit juice, rye bread, jellies, and various other food products.

It is an essential component widely used in drinks and powdered beverages to incorporate sourness while maintaining the pH balance. It is also used in the production of oral pharmaceutical formulations. Additionally, other industrial applications of fumaric acid include its usage as a chemical feedstock for the production of unsaturated polyester resins, paper resins, alkyd resins, printing inks, plasticizers, lubricating oil, and oil field fluids.

The utilization of fumaric acid as the chemical feedstock in the production of unsaturated polyester resins, paper resins, printing inks, plasticizers, lubricating oil, and oil field fluids, is what drives the market for this commodity and promotes its demand in the plastic, paints & coatings, pulp & paper, chemical & materials and oil & gas industries.

The market for fumaric acid is also led by its demand as a food acidulant in the production of a variety of food and beverage products, including wheat tortillas, jellies, fruit juice, rye bread, etc., to enhance flavor, incorporate sourness, and to maintain the pH balance, which enhances its requirement in the food & beverage industries. Moreover, its utilization in the manufacture of oral pharmaceutical formulations further boosts its market growth and enhances its demand in the pharmaceutical industry.

Industrial fumaric acid procurement is governed by various factors, including the availability and production cost of its feedstock (including benzene, etc.), the market prices of fumaric acid, environmental regulations & sustainable practices, its distribution (covering transportation and trading activities), and logistics, etc.

Raw Material for Fumaric Acid Production

According to the Fumaric Acid manufacturing plant project report, the major raw material for Fumaric Acid production includes Benzene (primary raw material), Maleic anhydride (secondary raw material, further producing maleic acid).

Manufacturing Process of Fumaric Acid

The extensive Fumaric Acid production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

  • Production from Maleic Acid: The reaction initiates with the catalytic oxidation of benzene in a gaseous phase to produce maleic anhydride, followed by its hydrolyzation to produce maleic acid. Maleic acid is further isomerized in the presence of heat to give fumaric acid as the final product.

Fumaric Acid is naturally found in several natural sources. It is also known as trans-butene-dioic acid, and it is a colorless chemical compound. Furthermore, it is an essential compound in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, which is responsible for the production of organic acid in humans as well as in mammals.

It also plays a vital role in the development of plants. Moreover, it helps in prolonging the sourness and effect of flavors in food due to its hydrophobic nature. Additionally, it also lowers the pH level without adding too much sourness to products with a pH level greater than 4.5.

Fumaric Acid is a harmless food supplement that is commonly found in drinks and baking powders to maintain purity standards. It is an alternative to Tartaric Acid or Citric Acid, with a ratio of 1.36 grams of citric acid to every 0.91 grams of Fumaric Acid to achieve the same flavor. Moreover, it is a precursor to L-malate in the Krebs tricarboxylic acid cycle. It is created by succinate dehydrogenase oxidizing succinate. Fumarate is altered to malate by fumarase. Fumarate is a dicarboxylic acid's salt or ester that is created by fumaric acid.
