Acitic Acid

Acetic Acid is made in large scale mainly by methanol carbonylation
An alternative green route for the production of acetic acid from renewable feedstocks is through the gasification of biomass
The biomass raw materials that have been used for gasification include rice straw, husks of rice, sorghum, wood chips, sawdust
Acetic acid provides a chemical platform serving several value chains focused on adhesives and coatings, apparel, engineering polymers, generic pharmaceuticals, oilfield chemicals and foodstuffs.
