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 chlorinated polyethylene 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.
Chlorinated polyethylene production requires high-density polyethylene (HDPE) as the base polymer, chlorine gas for chlorination, water as a medium for the slurry process, and additives such as stabilizers and plasticizers for post-processing.
The chlorinated polyethylene factory typically requires chlorination reactors, HDPE feeding and handling systems, cooling and drying units, neutralization tanks, centrifuges, filtration systems, and packaging machines, along with essential safety and control systems.
The main steps generally include:
Sourcing of raw materials (HDPE, chlorine gas, additives)
Chlorination reaction
Quenching and neutralization
Washing and filtration
Drying and granulation
Packaging and storage
Usually, the timeline can range from 12 to 36 months to start a chlorinated polyethylene production plant, depending on factors like plant capacity, procurement of machinery, installation, trial runs, workforce training, and obtaining necessary regulatory approvals.
