Iodine Production From Brine
Production Cost Report | Healthcare
This report proffers the thorough economics of iodine production from brines. Brines are saltwater solutions with a rich content of common salt. The brine solution (obtained from natural brines or synthetic brine) is oxidized by treating it with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a catalyst such as ferrous sulfate. In the reaction, iodine is produced by the oxidation of iodide ion in the brine solution. It is further filtered and purified to obtain iodine as the end product.
Top Producers of Iodine
- Algorta Norte SA
- Deepwater Chemicals
- Iofina PLC
- SQM SA
- Glide Chem Private Limited
Feedstocks for Iodine
Iodine is an element that can be synthetically manufactured using brine or salt water as its primary feedstock. The procurement of iodine and its raw material is mainly dependent upon some of the vital factors. Factors including the production cost of iodine, availability of other raw materials (including hydrogen peroxide, which is used to oxidize brine and produce iodine), and logistic and governmental policies have a prominent impact on its procurement process. Additionally, other factors such as the variations in its market prices, stability in the supply chain, trade, transportation activities, its demand from the pharmaceutical, electronics, photography, and dyestuff industries significantly determine its procurement across the globe.
