Erucic Acid Production From Rapeseed Oil
Production Cost Report | Chemicals
Details: Germany - based plant Q1 2024 | From $ USD
This report provides an extensive cost evaluation production from rapeseed. The production of erucic acid is carried out by the high temperature splitting and distillation method. In this process, rapeseeds are processed in hot pressurized ethanol and filtered, producing rapeseed oil at the end. The rapeseed oil obtained from rapeseeds is then heated at a high temperature in the presence of water, resulting in a mixture of fatty acids and glycerol as an intermediate. The intermediate is subjected to distillation and purification that enables the production of erucic acid as the final product.

- Vantage Specialty Chemicals
- Perdue Farms Inc.
- Acme Soap Works
- Godrej Industries Limited
Feedstocks for Eurcic Acid
Erucic acid is synthesized by using rapeseed as its major raw material. The procurement of rapeseed is specifically influenced by some factors, including the availability of materials from the upstream industries, seasonal variations, agricultural conditions, supply chain stability, and demand from the downstream industries. Moreover, other factors, such as transportation and logistics and governmental and trade policies altogether, play a vital role in influencing the overall procurement of rapeseed in the global market.
