This study analyzes Chloral Hydrate Production By Chlorination Reaction, covering manufacturing, process flow, operating expenses, and financial considerations.
Last Updated: January, 2025
This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of chloral hydrate production by chlorination reaction. The production process begins with the chlorination reaction between acetaldehyde or ethanol with hydrochloric acid by heating. The process can be carried out in the presence of a catalyst, such as antimony trichloride, to catalyze the reaction and result in the formation of chloral hydrate as the end product.
Chloral hydrate is obtained by using acetaldehyde or ethanol and hydrochloric acid as its major feedstock. The procurement of chloral hydrate, along with its feedstock, is majorly impacted by several factors, such as the cost of production, market prices, availability of its raw materials (including sodium chloride, sulfuric acid, crude oil, etc.), demand from the downstream pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and plastic industries, etc. Additionally, factors including the stability in the supply chain, logistics and trade activities, transportation, trade, and governmental policies also largely influence its procurement in the global chemical market.
