Feedstock for Magnesium Oxalate

The feedstock involved in the production process of magnesium oxalate consists of magnesia and oxalic acid. The primary sources of magnesia (magnesium oxide) are magnesium-bearing minerals such as dolomite and magnesite. The availability, quality, and geographical distribution of these raw materials impact the pricing and availability of magnesia. The changes in the demand for magnesia in construction (especially refractories), agriculture (fertilizers), manufacturing, and increasingly in eco-friendly and advanced materials, determine the pricing for magnesia. Growth in sectors such as steel, glass, pharmaceuticals, and dietary supplements increases demand, affecting both price and availability. Advances in extraction and processing, such as sustainable magnesia production from brine, lower costs and improve supply stability, influencing both price and availability.

Oxalic acid is utilized as another major raw material for the production process of magnesium oxalate. The price of oxalic acid is influenced by the cost and availability of its primary feedstocks, such as calcium carbonate, sodium formate, and ethylene glycol. The method used to produce oxalic acid (natural extraction, chemical synthesis, or microbial fermentation) affects overall costs. Changes in demand from sectors such as pharmaceuticals, textiles, metal processing, and agriculture further determine the pricing.
 

Market Drivers for Magnesium Oxalate

The market demand for magnesium oxalate is driven by its application in the manufacturing of medications that require controlled drug release, which elevates its demand in the pharmaceutical industry. Its ability to bind with other elements makes it valuable for specific drug formulations. Its utilization to produce functional foods, beverages, and dietary supplements boosts its market growth in the nutraceutical industry.

The global rise in the preference of consumers towards more natural and effective health supplements and the nutraceutical market growth at a robust annual rate fuels its market expansion. Its function as a magnesium source in fertilizers, supporting plant growth and photosynthesis, contributes to its demand in the agriculture sector. The global population rise, coupled with the need for increased food production, drives its growth in the agriculture sector and boosts demand for magnesium-based fertilizers. Its usage in water treatment processes to remove contaminants and minerals drives its demand.

The procurement of magnesium oxalate is influenced by the availability and price of raw materials, such as magnesium salts and oxalic acid. Fluctuations in feedstock prices directly impact industrial magnesium oxalate procurement. The capital expenditure (CAPEX) for a magnesium oxalate manufacturing plant covers all investments needed to establish the facility, including costs for land, construction, plant, and machinery such as glass-lined or stainless steel, mixers or agitators, filter presses or vacuum filters, centrifuges, dryers, etc., utilities, laboratory equipment, and initial working capital.

The operating expenditure (OPEX) for a magnesium oxalate manufacturing plant comprises all recurring costs necessary to run the facility efficiently. Major OPEX components include raw material costs (primarily magnesia and oxalic acid), utilities (such as electricity, water, and steam), labor (wages and salaries for plant personnel), maintenance and repairs, packaging materials, transportation and logistics, and administrative overheads. Additional expenses may involve quality control, waste management, insurance, and other indirect costs.
 

Manufacturing Process

This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for Magnesium Oxalate manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial Magnesium Oxalate manufacturing.

• Production from oxalic acid: The feedstock required for the industrial manufacturing process consists of magnesia and oxalic acid.

The manufacturing process of magnesium oxalate involves using magnesia and oxalic acid as the major starting material. The process initiates with the chemical reaction of dead-burned magnesia and oxalic acid salts. The reaction results in the production of magnesium oxalate as the final product.
 

Properties of Magnesium Oxalate

Magnesium Oxalate is a white solid or colorless crystalline compound with a molecular weight of 112.324 g/mol. It has a density of 2.45 g/cm³ and is practically insoluble in water and organic solvents. It has a molecular formula of MgC2O4. The anhydrous form decomposes in the range of 420 degree Celsius and 620 degree Celsius, while its dihydrate form loses its water of crystallization at 150 degree Celsius. It consists of a magnesium cation (Mg2+) bonded to an oxalate anion (C2O42-). It is stable under normal conditions but decomposes when heated, first losing water (in the case of the dihydrate) and then decomposing into magnesium carbonate and carbon monoxide. It is produced via a magnesium salt or ion with an oxalate. However, the compound is not highly toxic but can irritate the skin, eyes, and respiratory system upon exposure.
