Formaldehyde industries

Formaldehyde industries

If you’re in the formaldehyde industries you need the right strategy

Formaldehyde plants Formaldehyde is the most commercially important aldehyde. Urea-, phenol- and melamine-formaldehyde resins (UF, PF and MF resins) accounted for approximately 63% of world demand. Formaldehyde is a basic building block to many important industries, it is used to manufacture resins; as an intermediate for synthesizing other chemicals and is also directly used without further processing. Over 50% of consumption accounts on construction/remodeling activity, and to a lesser degree, the automotive industry. World consumption is forecast to grow at an average annual rate of 4.0% during 2009–2014. Demand for these markets is greatly influenced by general economic conditions. As a result, demand for formaldehyde largely follows the patterns of the leading world economies. The Today, all of the world's commercial formaldehyde is manufactured from methanol and air using either a silver catalyst or a metal oxide catalyst. The silver catalyst process that combines dehydrogenation and oxidation to obtain formaldehyde is used by this end user with 100 TPD plant capacity. Most formaldehyde producers are concerned primarily with satisfying captive requirements for derivatives and/or supplying local merchant sales. Formaldehyde is usually produced close to the point of consumption since it is fairly easy to make, is costly to transport and can develop problems associated with stability during transport. As a result, world trade in formaldehyde is minimal day by day.
