Capital requirements generally include land acquisition, construction, equipment procurement, installation, pre-operative expenses, and initial working capital. The total amount varies with capacity, technology, and location.
To start a calcium chlorite production business, one needs to conduct a market feasibility study, secure required licenses, arrange funding, select suitable land, procure equipment, recruit skilled labor, and establish a supply chain and distribution network.
Calcium chlorite production requires raw materials such as hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide), chlorine gas, and sodium chlorite solution. Additional inputs include water for dilution, stabilizing agents to control reaction, and corrosion-resistant materials for handling chemicals safely during synthesis, purification, and crystallization processes to yield pure calcium chlorite compounds.
A calcium chlorite factory typically requires reaction vessels, chlorine gas handling systems, dosing pumps, mixing tanks, filtration units, crystallizers, centrifuges, drying equipment, storage tanks, corrosion-resistant pipelines, pH control instruments, cooling systems, and packaging machines, along with safety gear and monitoring instruments for precise, controlled, and safe chemical production operations.
The main steps generally include:
Preparing calcium hydroxide solution using hydrated lime
Introducing chlorine gas under controlled temperature conditions
Reacting chlorine with calcium hydroxide to form intermediates
Adding sodium chlorite solution to produce calcium chlorite
Filtering and separating solid impurities from reaction mixture
Crystallizing calcium chlorite through controlled cooling process
Drying crystals to remove residual moisture completely
Packaging, storage, and distribution
