Allyl Alcohol Production Cost Reports

The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing an Allyl Alcohol manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Allyl Alcohol production, including the cost of Allyl Alcohol production, Allyl Alcohol plant cost, Allyl Alcohol production costs, and the overall Allyl Alcohol manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating an Allyl Alcohol production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

Allyl Alcohol is a pivotal organic compound that is associated with a plethora of industries, majorly, the resin, plastics, and pharmaceutical industries. It finds its application as an herbicide for controlling several grass and weed seeds. However, its demand is rising due to its function as an antibacterial agent, insecticide, herbicide, fungicide, and plant metabolite. Furthermore, it finds its use as an industrial solvent and as a raw material for making several products in the pharmaceutical sector, along with various polymers, pesticides, and other allyl compounds, which further impacts its market growth. Also, it is used for manufacturing plasticizers, resins, and other organic chemicals, boosting the market growth for allyl alcohol.

Due to its critical role in the production of insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, and several other antibacterial agents, allyl alcohol is a highly sought-after commodity. In the agrochemical industries, its demand is higher due to its principal use as an antibacterial agent and a plant metabolite in the manufacturing of insecticides and an herbicide. Moreover, allyl alcohol is of great industrial importance because of its usage as an industrial solvent. Additionally, its application as a raw material in the manufacturing of various pharmaceuticals, polymers, plasticizers, resins, and other organic compounds strengthen its market demand globally.

Availability and cost of production of allyl alcohol's feedstock (such as propylene, allyl chloride, etc.), allyl alcohol market prices, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, etc., are some of the elements that influence the industrial allyl alcohol procurement. The global procurement of this commodity is greatly influenced by its necessity as a key component for the agrochemical, plasticizers, polymer, and pharmaceutical sectors.

Raw Materials for Allyl Alcohol production

According to the Allyl Alcohol manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for urea production include propylene; propanol; and allyl chloride.

Manufacturing Process of Allyl Alcohol

The extensive allyl alcohol production cost report consists of the major industrial manufacturing processes:

• Production from Propylene: Essentially, the process comprises oxidizing propylene to form propylene oxide. Further, propylene oxide undergoes the process of rearrangement in the presence of a potassium alum catalyst at high temperatures to give allyl alcohol as a major product.
   
• Production from Propanol: The synthesis of allyl alcohol is accomplished by the dehydrogenation of propanol. Hence, propanol is dehydrogenated to produce allyl alcohol.

Production from Allyl Chloride: In this reaction, allyl chloride undergoes the process of hydrolysis to produce Allyl Alcohol. Di-allyl ether is produced as a by-product along with the main product.

Allyl Alcohol is a colorless organic compound with a pungent, mustard-like odor. It is water soluble and has a chemical structure of CH2-CHCH2OH. Also known by the name 3-Propenol, it is a propenol with a C=C bond that connects C-2 and C-3. It is found in garlic (Allium sativum), Vitis vinifera, and Bos taurus. It is mainly produced by allyl chloride hydrolysis. The chemical looks like a clear, colorless liquid that has a pungent odor like that of mustard. It has a flash point of 70 °F. Its formula is CH2:CHCH2OH. It has a relative density of 0.85. Its melting and boiling point is –129°C and 96.9°C.

It is soluble in water and less dense than water, with vapors heavier than air. Its molecular weight is 58.08 u. It is a toxic and poisonous liquid which, when inhaled and ingested, and its prolonged exposure in little concentrations or some exposure in high concentrations, can lead to negative health effects via inhalation, like upper respiratory tract irritation and eye burns.
