Formalin Production Cost Breakup via Catalytic Oxidation
Formalin Production via Catalytic Oxidation
This study analyzes Formalin Production via Catalytic Oxidation, covering manufacturing, process flow, operating expenses, and financial considerations.
Last Updated: January, 2025
This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of producing Formalin via catalytic oxidation. The process involves the use of methanol as the primary raw material. In this method, methanol is mixed with air (oxygen) at temperatures between 400°C and 700°C in the presence of metal catalysts, such as silver, copper, molybdenum, platinum, and alloys of these metals, which leads to the formation of formaldehyde (HCHO) and water (H2O). Further, the formaldehyde (gas) produced in the oxidation step is absorbed in water to give Formalin as the final product. Formalin is a 37-50% solution of formaldehyde in water. This process is energy-efficient and widely used in industries to synthesize Formalin.
