Chlorine Dioxide from Sodium Chlorate (Sulfuric Acid Process)
Chlorine Dioxide Operating Costs & Plant Construction Costs
This report presents the economics of Chlorine Dioxide production from sodium chlorate via a sulfuric acid-based reduction process. Sulfur dioxide is used as reductant. The economic analysis approaches a plant located in the United States.
The report provides a comprehensive study of Chlorine Dioxide production and related Chlorine Dioxide production cost, covering three key aspects: a complete description of the Chlorine Dioxide production process examined; an in-depth analysis of the related Chlorine Dioxide plant capital cost (Capex); and an evaluation of the respective Chlorine Dioxide plant operating costs (Opex).
The Chlorine Dioxide production process description includes a block flow diagram (BFD), an overview of the industrial site installations, detailing both the process unit and the necessary infrastructure, process consumption figures and comprehensive process flow diagrams (PFD). The Chlorine Dioxide plant capital cost analysis breaks down the Capex by plant cost (i.e., ISBL, OSBL and Contingency); owner's cost; working capital; and costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up. The Chlorine Dioxide plant operating costs analysis covers operating expenses, including variable costs like raw materials and utilities, and fixed costs such as maintenance, labor, and depreciation.

Product
Chlorine Dioxide. Chlorine Dioxide (a.k.a. ClO2) is a very unstable gas, which easily decomposes into chlorine and oxygen when exposed to light or mild heating. This gas is a potent oxidizing agent, widely used in disinfection applications.
Raw Materials
Sodium Chlorate. Sodium Chlorate is an oxidizing agent used in the production of chlorine dioxide for bleaching paper pulp and in herbicides. It is valued for its strong oxidizing properties and efficiency in industrial applications. Sodium chlorate is produced through the electrolysis of sodium chloride solution and stored as a crystalline solid.
Sulfuric Acid. Sulfuric acid is one of the most widely used industrial chemicals, serving as a key component in fertilizer production, mineral processing, and chemical manufacturing. It is also used in the refining of petroleum and metal ores. Sulfuric acid is produced via the contact process, where sulfur dioxide is oxidized and absorbed in water. It is stored as a liquid and is crucial for processes like phosphate fertilizer production and in lead-acid batteries.

Chlorine Dioxide Production from Chlorine
This study presents the costs associated with the construction of a plant for Chlorine Dioxide production from chlorine in the United States. Initially, sodium chlorate is produced from caustic soda and hydrochloric acid solution via electrolysis. Hydrogen and chlorine are reacted in a furnace to form the pure hydrogen chloride. The sodium chlorate formed is then reduced with the hydrogen chloride to chlorine dioxide.

Sulfuric Acid from Sulfur (Single-Contact Process)
This report presents the economics of Sulfuric Acid production from sulfur in the United States. In this process, sulfur is burned to form sulfur dioxide, which is then converted to sulfur trioxide. This sulfur trioxide is converted to sulfuric acid by absorption with recirculating sulfuric acid solution in water in only one column.
