Gallic Acid Production Cost Reports

The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a Gallic Acid manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Gallic Acid production, including the cost of Gallic Acid production, Gallic Acid plant cost, Gallic Acid production costs, and the overall Gallic Acid manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Gallic Acid 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.

Gallic Acid has a wide range of applications in different market sectors covering chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and other industries. It is utilized as a chemical additive in the production of food materials. It is a component naturally found in different fruits, including pineapple, oak bark, green tea, etc. Hence, has a fruity note and is added in preparing food products along with beverages such as wine. It has antioxidants and nutritional values, which is why it can be included in edible products.

It also possesses anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic properties and can be used in the production of its derivatives for other commercial operations. It serves as a synthetic intermediate in the preparation of pyrogallol and its derivative esters in the chemical industry. Its derivatives can further be included in the production of food and pharmaceutical products. Additionally, it is utilized in the preparation and formulation of therapeutical medications taken for gastrointestinal, metabolic, cardiovascular, and neuropsychological disorders.

Industrial Gallic Acid procurement is largely influenced by its demand in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries. The food market benefits from its antioxidant content by adding it to products as a natural preservative to increase the shelf life and make them more nutritious. The ongoing trend of using natural components in the food and drinks industries, including wine and other beverages, boosts its demand. Its use in the pharmaceutical industry due to its anti-inflammatory properties makes it a popular product. Also, its utilization as an anti-microbial and anti-carcinogenic material and in therapeutic medications for gastrointestinal, metabolic, cardiovascular, and further contributes to its demand. The improvement in production processes also adds to the increased availability of the product, fuelling its market.

Raw Material for Gallic Acid Production

According to the Gallic Acid manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Gallic Acid include Tannic Acid-Sulfuric Acid.

Manufacturing Process of Gallic Acid

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

1. Production From Tannic Acid and Sulfuric Acid: The manufacturing process of Gallic Acid is achieved via the hydrolysis method. In this synthesis, tannic acid is reacted with sulfuric acid in the presence of heat. The tannic acid goes through hydrolysis forming Gallic Acid as the final product.

Gallic Acid has a chemical formula of C7H6O5, and its molecular weight is 170.12 g/mol. It is a colorless crystalline compound with no odor. It is a hygroscopic solid with a melting and boiling point measuring approximately at 251 °C and 259.73 °C, respectively. It undergoes sublimation at an elevated temperature and generally sublimates easily when it reaches its melting point. However, it remains stable under normal conditions. It is a moderately soluble acid that dissolves in certain chemical solvents. It is soluble in alcohols, acetone, and ethers. Similarly, it can be dissolved in glycerol as well. However, it is insoluble in benzene and chloroform. It degrades thermally on heating at a high temperature while producing carbon dioxide and monoxide in the air.
