Sodium Monochloro Acetate (SMCA) Production Cost Reports

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

Sodium monochloride acetate, also known as SMCA, is a colorless and odorless compound, majorly associated with the chemical, agrochemical, cosmetics, and food industries. It is primarily used as a frequent intermediary in the synthesis of a variety of chemical substances, including carboxymethyl cellulose, thioglycolic acid, phenoxy acetic acid, and glycine.

It is also included in cleansers, major detergents, and surfactants. Similarly, the compound is used as a surfactant and thickening agent in personal care products such as shampoos and soaps, as well as skincare and body care products such as lotions, etc. It can be used as a seasoning and pH controller in packaged and processed food products. Moreover, it is used to produce herbicides in the agrochemical industry.

The demand for sodium monochloro acetate is dependent upon its applications covering chemical, cosmetics, agrochemical, and food industries. The applications of the compound, chiefly in chemical synthesis as an intermediate to thioglycolic acid, glycine, carboxymethylcellulose, etc., fuel its demand in the chemical industry. Similarly, its utilization as a thickener, pH controller, and surfactant in cosmetics, food products, and cleansers increases its demand in the cosmetics and food industries.

The procurement of sodium monochloro acetate is chiefly influenced by various factors. Factors including its demand in the chemical, cosmetics, agrochemical, and food industries, along with the stability in its supply chain and market prices, impact the industrial sodium monochloride acetate procurement on a large scale. Hence, fluctuations in its demand for edible products, chemicals, and agrochemical products, as well as its market prices, are highly crucial to determine its procurement across the globe.

Raw Material for Sodium Monochloro Acetate (SMCA) Production

According to the sodium monochloro acetate (SMCA) manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials for sodium monochloro acetate (SMCA) production includes sodium carbonate-monochloroacetic acid; sodium hydroxide-monochloroacetic acid.

Manufacturing Process of Sodium Monochloro Acetate (SMCA)

The extensive sodium monochloro acetate (SMCA) production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• By Neutralization: The production process of sodium nonochloro acetate, or SMCA, is initiated by neutralizing monochloroacetic acid using sodium carbonate. The reaction leads to the production of sodium monochloride acetate at the end.
• From Molten Monochloroacetic Acid: Sodium monochloro acetate is produced from molten monochloroacetic acid. The latter is reacted with caustic soda, which leads to the production of sodium monochloro acetate at the end.

Sodium mono-chloroacetate (SMCA) is a colorless, hygroscopic, and water-soluble sodium salt of monochloroacetic acid. It is created by reacting mono-chloroacetic acid with sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate, yielding SMCA and water. It is a white crystalline powder and is highly soluble in water and organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and acetone. The melting point of SMCA ranges from 185°C to 190°C, and its density is approximately 1.58 g/cm3.
