Lactitol Production By Hydrogenation Reaction
Lactitol Production Cost Breakup By Hydrogenation Reaction
This study analyzes Lactitol Production By Hydrogenation Reaction, covering manufacturing, process flow, operating expenses, and financial considerations.
Last Updated: January, 2025
This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of lactitol production by the hydrogenation reaction. The synthesis of lactitol is initiated by the hydrogenation of lactose in the presence of a catalyst. The reaction is carried out in a batch mode, using sponge nickel as a catalyst to catalyze the reaction at a high temperature ranging between 130 to 180°C. In this process, at a controlled pressure between 50 to 170 bars, the hydrogenation of lactose results in the production of lactitol as an end product.

Feedstock for Lactitol
Lactitol is an organic chemical compound that is derived by using lactose as its primary feedstock. The procurement of lactitol, along with its feedstock, is influenced by various factors. Some of the vital factors include its production cost, availability of its raw material (including milk, etc.), market prices, activities in the upstream industries (including agricultural and animal husbandry sectors), and logistics are crucial for determining its procurement. Moreover, other factors, including trade and transportation activities, stability in the supply chain, and demand from its downstream chemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries altogether, impact its overall procurement in the global chemical market on a large scale.
