Sodium Hypochlorite Production Cost Reports

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

Sodium Hypochlorite, commonly referred to as bleach, liquid bleach, or liquid bleach, is a strong oxidant with broad spectrum of bactericidal effectiveness. It is used as a disinfectant and bleaching agent in a variety of applications, such as water treatment, swimming pool maintenance, household cleaning, and laundry. It is also employed to sanitize the equipments used in food preparation. It is also used for refining petroleum products. In the commercial market, Sodium Hypochlorite is available in a variety of concentrations ranging from 5% to 15%, and its efficiency as a disinfectant and bleaching agent is proportional to its concentration. Higher doses are more effective, but they are also more corrosive and can irritate the skin and eyes.

The market for Sodium Hypochlorite is driven by its application as a disinfectant and bleaching agent in water treatment for drinking water and swimming pools. Its utilization as a disinfectant and cleaning agent in hospitals, household cleaning, and as surface sanitizer amplifies its market demand in healthcare and hygiene sectors. Its employment as a bleaching agent in fabric whitening and bleaching wood pulp contributes to its demand in the textiles and paper industries. Its usage in soil treatment and disinfection of the irrigation water increases food production thus increasing its demand in the agriculture sector. Overall, industrial Sodium Hypochlorite procurement is influenced by its application in water treatment, its utilization in healthcare and hygiene sectors, its employment in the textiles and paper industries, its usage in the agriculture sector, cost-effectiveness, regulatory approvals, and environmental regulations.

Raw Material for Sodium Hypochlorite Production

According to the Sodium Hypochlorite manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Sodium Hypochlorite include sodium hydroxide-chlorine.

Manufacturing Process of Sodium Hypochlorite

The extensive Sodium Hypochlorite production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from chlorination process: The manufacturing process of Sodium Hypochlorite occurs through the chlorination process in which chlorine (Cl2) is reacted with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in an aqueous solution to produce Sodium Hypochlorite.

Sodium Hypochlorite is a greenish-yellow liquid with a sweetish odor having the molecular formula NaClO and a molecular weight of 74.44 g/mol. It has good solubility in water with a solubility of 293 g/L at 20 °C, and its solubility increases as the temperature rises. It is denser than water, with a density of 1.093 for 5% solution. It has a vapor pressure in the range of 2 - 2.5 kPa at 20 °C. It can solidify at low temperatures; the solid form is unstable and decomposes.
