Frequently Asked Questions
The estimated CAPEX range is USD 20 million to USD 90 million for a plant with a capacity of 10,000 to 60,000 tons per year, depending on the dehydration, purification, and finishing systems.
The benchmark plant capacity is 10,000 to 60,000 tons per year of isosorbide, which is considered a mid-scale plant.
The global isosorbide market is estimated to be around USD 0.2 billion to USD 0.5 billion, with an expected growth rate of about 7.2% to 8.5% during the forecast period.
Bio-based polymers represent 40% to 50% of demand, plasticizers and green solvents account for around 25% to 35%, and pharmaceuticals and other specialty uses may contribute around 20% to 30%.
The process involves the acid-catalyzed double dehydration of sorbitol, followed by purification by distillation or crystallization.
Sorbitol is the primary feedstock, and its procurement accounts for 55% to 70% of the total raw material cost.
The dehydration and purification trains, together with the finishing systems, represent 45% to 55% of the total isosorbide plant setup cost.
Isosorbide production costs depend largely on sorbitol prices and the overall process yield.
Europe, North America, and Asia dominate Isosorbide manufacturing, collectively accounting for over 90% of global production capacity, with Europe and Asia being the leading production regions.
Isosorbide is available in polymer and pharmaceutical grades and is sold as a solid or solution.
