Barium Chloride Production Cost Reports

The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a Barium Chloride manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Barium Chloride production, including the cost of Barium Chloride production, Barium Chloride plant cost, Barium Chloride production costs, and the overall Barium Chloride manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Barium Chloride 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.

Barium Chloride is an ionic compound that has several applications in various industries. It is used in the production of barium salts, which are used in white paints, mainly for external use. It is employed for making rubber, papermaking, oil lubricants, PVC stabilizers, barium chromate, pigments, different barium salts, and barium fluoride. Moreover, it is used in processes like crude oil refining, steel hardening, purifying brine (saline) solution in caustic chlorine plants, and the purification of the manufacture of heat treatment salts. It also finds application as a test for sulfate ions and to give a bright green color to fireworks. Furthermore, it is used in chlorine-alkali industries.

The market for Barium Chloride is driven by its application in the production of PVC stabilizers, oil lubricants, barium chromate, barium fluoride, and other industrial chemicals. Its utilization in removing sulfate ions from water amplifies its demand in wastewater treatment. The compound’s ability to purify brine (saline) solutions contributes to its demand in the chlor-alkali industry. Its employment to impart a green color to flames fuels its market in fireworks and pyrotechnics. Overall, industrial Barium Chloride procurement is influenced by its application in the production of various industrial chemicals and products, its utilization in wastewater treatment, its usage in the chlor-alkali industry, its employment in fireworks and pyrotechnics, and research and development.

Raw Material for Barium Chloride Production

According to the Barium Chloride manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Barium Chloride include barium carbonate; baryte (barium sulfate).

Manufacturing Process of Barium Chloride

The extensive Barium Chloride production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing processes:

• Production from barium carbonate: The manufacturing process of Barium Chloride involves the reaction of barium carbonate with hydrochloric acid to produce Barium Chloride.
• Production from baryte (barium sulfate): The production process involves a two-step procedure. In the first step, barium sulfate is treated with coke (carbon) to form barium sulfide (BaS) and carbon dioxide (CO2). In the final step, barium sulfide is reacted with calcium chloride or hydrochloric acid to produce Barium Chloride.

Barium Chloride, also known as Barium dichloride, is a white, odorless, crystalline solid having the molecular formula BaCl2 and a molecular weight of 208.23 g/mol (anhydrous). It is an inorganic salt comprised of barium cations (Ba2+) and chloride anions (Cl–). It shows a bright green flame when burned. It is soluble in water and is hygroscopic. It is denser than water having a density of 3.856 g/cm3 (anhydrous). The melting and boiling points of the chemical are 962 °C and 1,560 °C, respectively. It is toxic and poisonous in nature.
