Ferric Alum Production Cost Breakup By Crystallization Reaction

Details: Germany - based plant Q1 2024  | From $ USD

This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of ferric alum production by crystallization reaction. The synthesis of ferric alum begins with the chemical reaction between ferric sulfate and ammonium sulfate. The reaction between the two compounds, i.e., ferric sulfate and ammonium sulfate, leads to the precipitation of ferric ammonium sulfate crystals as the resultant product. The resultant is further separated from the mixture and purified to produce ferric alum or ferric ammonium sulfate as the final product.

Major Producers of Ferric Alum

  • Northeast Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd
  • Suzhou Dongchen Linda Testing Technology Co., Ltd
  • Astaris LLC
  • Nippon Denko Co., Ltd.

Feedstocks for Ferric Alum

Ferric alum or ferric ammonium sulfate is a metal salt that is obtained by using ferric sulfate and ammonium sulfate as its chief raw materials. The procurement of ferric alum, along with its feedstocks, is determined by factors that are related to its market dynamics.

Some of the factors such as the market prices, cost of production, supply chain stability and logistics are prominent influencers that can impact its procurement process. Moreover, factors including availability of raw materials (including iron, ammonium, etc.), extraction of iron metal (feedstock), activities in the upstream industries, demand observed from the downstream industries (including chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and more), transportations, and trade policies altogether help in governing its overall procurement in the global market.
