Are there electrolyzers with an annual production capacity of less than 2,000 tons of chlorine? What is the cost?
Thread Content
We are in the field of organic chemistry; we use chlorine for our own needs, and there is a cycle from caustic soda solution to sodium chloride solution. How much does an electrolyzer with an annual production capacity of 1,000–2,000 tons of chlorine cost?
I can only tell you it’s not cheap! ! ! ! It may be necessary to consult the manufacturer to determine this. I’m not sure when you might be interested in getting the equipment. I can help you ask.
Can’t buy it, with such low production volume – **it’s better to stop production
Chlorine is too expensive to ship and is dangerous. Sodium hydroxide and sodium chloride can also be recycled, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly
Why isn’t it cheap? I need to know the price first before I can make a decision.
In this case, an old-style diaphragm electrolyzer can be considered. New-type ion membrane electrolyzers require secondary purification of brine, which is troublesome; they are not worth maintaining on a small scale. Those interested can contact myben@126.com
I give up on you – with such low output, why buy it? It’s a waste of money
The old models have also become obsolete; they consume too much energy and cannot be used for long
If only liquid alkalis are used, not only is the energy consumption low, but the overall cost is also lower than that of the ion-exchange membrane method. There is no other solution; forget about the ion membrane method – it simply won’t work.
An investment of this scale is not cost-effective; it’s better to purchase chlorine and alkali directly. Even on a small scale, all the processes involved in producing caustic soda are required, as well as rectification, along with hardware and software specialists. The estimated cost per ton when sharing costs is much higher than purchasing directly.
