Sodium Hydroxide Production Cost Reports
Chemicals
The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a sodium hydroxide manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for sodium hydroxide production, including the cost of sodium hydroxide production, sodium hydroxide plant cost, sodium hydroxide production costs, and the overall sodium hydroxide manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a sodium hydroxide 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 hydroxide is an alkaline compound largely utilized in paper, cosmetics, chemicals, food, resin, coatings, metal, and other industries. The compound is chiefly included as a compound in processing paper pulp. It helps in dissolving lignin, separating cellulose, and production of fine paper products.
Sodium hydroxide is also used in the production of coating chemicals, specifically oxide coatings, glazes, epoxy resins, and more. It is utilized in metal cleansing and processing for aluminium metal. It can also be used in etching and electroplating metal varieties, such as copper. Similarly, it serves as a preservative in edible and processed products, specifically those produced in cans. Moreover, sodium hydroxide is used in explosives, ceramics, glasses, and more.
The market for sodium hydroxide is chiefly dependent upon its demand observed in paper, chemical, metal, food, glass, ceramic, coatings, and resin industries. Its major application in paper production drives its demand in the paper industry. Moreover, its usage in the production of epoxy resins, chemical coatings, glazes etc., propels its demand in the market. Moreover, the application of sodium hydroxide as a preservative in edible products boosts its demand in the food industry. The usage of the compound in metal processing, etching, and electroplating increases its demand for metal production.
These applications of sodium hydroxide are highly beneficial to increase its demand while strengthening its market growth. The rise or fall in its demand (covering metal, paper, chemical, ceramic, glass, and resin industries), its market prices, stability in its supply chain, logistics, trade, and transportation activities altogether impact the industrial sodium hydroxide procurement. Hence, these factors (majorly its demand in chemical, metal, food, paper, and coatings sectors, etc., as well as its prices and supply) are essential to determine its procurement across borders.
Raw Material for Sodium Hydroxide Production
According to the sodium hydroxide manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials for sodium hydroxide production includes sodium chloride-water; calcium oxide-water-sodium carbonate.
Manufacturing Process of Sodium Hydroxide
The extensive sodium hydroxide production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:
- By Mercury Cell Electrolysis Method: The production process of sodium hydroxide is carried out by electrolysis of brine solution, i.e., the aqueous solution of sodium chloride in a mercury cell, producing chlorine as a byproduct.
- By Membrane Cell Electrolysis Method: Sodium hydroxide is a chemical compound produced by electrolysis of brine solution in a membrane cell, releasing hydrogen as a byproduct.
- By Lime-Soda Process: The manufacturing method of sodium hydroxide is carried out by the chemical reaction of calcium oxide and water. The reaction gives calcium hydroxide as an intermediate, which, on reacting with sodium carbonate, gives sodium hydroxide at the end.
- From Electrolysis Method: The preparation of sodium hydroxide is carried out by the chlor-alkali method. Initially, electricity is passed through the aqueous sodium chloride solution, i.e., brine solution. The process leads to the production of sodium hydroxide at the end.
Sodium hydroxide, also known as caustic soda or lye, is an inorganic chemical that is extremely caustic and corrosive. At room temperature, it is a white solid that is extremely soluble in water, causing an exothermic reaction. It is a strong base that is widely used in industry. It is made by electrolyzing salt brine or by reacting calcium hydroxide with sodium carbonate. At normal temperatures, sodium hydroxide is a white, odorless substance. It could also take the form of pellets or flakes. It has a melting point of 318°C (604°F) and a boiling temperature of 1,388°C (2,530°F).
The density of sodium hydroxide as a solid is 2.13 g/cm3, while its density as a solution varies with concentration. At room temperature, sodium hydroxide is very soluble in water, with a solubility of around 109 g/100 mL. As the temperature rises, so does the solubility. When in solution, it is a strong basic with a pH of 14. It is extremely reactive and can cause strong reactions with acids, oxidizing agents, and some metals. It is also extremely corrosive and can cause severe burns when it comes into contact with the skin, eyes, or respiratory system.
