Sodium Pyruvate Production Costs - Q2 2023
Sodium Pyruvate Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Sodium Pyruvate is a salt of the conjugate anion form of pyruvic acid, known as pyruvate. This acid is the simplest alpha-keto acid, with a carboxylic and a ketone functional group. Pyruvate is an important chemical compound in biochemistry, being the output of the glucose metabolism, and is then converted into acetyl-coenzime A, the main input of the Krebs cycle It is commonly used in cell culture media, as a carbon source in addition to glucose. Pyruvic acid is colorless liquid, soluble in water, with a smell similar to acetic acid. It can be inorganically produced by heating a mixture of tartaric acid and potassium hydrogen sulfate, oxidation of propylene glycol by a strong oxidizer, or by the hydrolysis of acetyl cyanide.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Sodium Pyruvate production costs. Each study describes an industrial plant, including main process units and site infrastructure, and presents an independent analysis of capital and operating costs. All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q2 2023).
Sodium Pyruvate Production from Glucose (Solvent Extraction)
This report analyses the economics of Sodium Pyruvate production from glucose in the United States. In this process, glucose is fermented to pyruvic acid, which is recovered from fermentation broth using solvent extraction. The solution containing pyruvic acid is contacted with sodium hydroxide, forming Sodium Pyruvate.
Details: 2 kta United States-based plant | Q2 2023 | 107 pages From $1,999 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Sodium Pyruvate E11A target a 2 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
Sodium Pyruvate Production from Glucose (Electrodialysis)
This report examines the costs related to Sodium Pyruvate production from glucose in the United States. Initially, glucose is fermented to pyruvic acid, which is recovered from the fermentation broth using electrodialysis. The obtained pyruvic acid is contacted with sodium hydroxide, forming Sodium Pyruvate.
