my country’s calcium oxalate market is gradually growing, with calcium carbonate as the main raw material

Calcium oxalate, also known as calcium oxalate, has a chemical formula of CaC2O4. It mostly appears as a white crystal powder under normal temperature and pressure, and can be converted into calcium carbonate or calcium oxide through combustion. Calcium oxalate is weakly acidic and soluble in water and acetic acid solutions, but insoluble in concentrated nitric acid or concentrated hydrochloric acid solutions. With the gradual advancement of production technology, the types of calcium oxalate products have become increasingly rich. According to different chemical properties, they can be roughly divided into oxalic acid dihydrate, oxalic acid tetrahydrate, etc.

At present, my country’s calcium oxalate industry chain has gradually matured. The upstream of the industrial chain is the raw material industry, which provides calcium carbonate, calcium chloride and other raw materials; the midstream is mainly the calcium oxalate production industry, which is responsible for the production and manufacturing of different types of calcium oxalate; the downstream is mainly the application field, and calcium oxalate is mostly used to produce lubricants, Products such as waterproofing agents and ceramic glazes are widely used in biomedicine, industry, scientific research, food, agriculture and other fields.

From the upstream of the industrial chain, calcium carbonate has become the main raw material for the production of calcium oxalate. Driven by downstream market demand, my country’s large-scale calcium carbonate production capacity devices have gradually been put into operation, and output has increased. According to data released by the China Inorganic Salt Industry Association, my country’s calcium carbonate output will be approximately 40.1 million tons in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 4.6%. my country’s calcium carbonate output is gradually increasing, providing sufficient raw materials for the rapid development of the calcium oxalate industry.

Calcium oxalate, as an organic compound, has a wide range of applications. In the field of scientific research, calcium oxalate is mostly used as an experimental reagent for analyzing precipitated metal ions. In the field of biomedicine, calcium oxalate is mostly used for the diagnosis and treatment of calcium oxalate stones and the research on urinary stones. In addition, calcium oxalate can also be used directly as calcium fertilizer, which not only provides nutrients to crops but also improves crop quality. Overall, my country’s calcium oxalate market has a large demand.

According to the “China Calcium Oxalate Industry Development Trend and Development Prospects Forecast Report 2023-2027” released by the Industrial Research Center, with the The demand in the downstream market is growing day by day, and the calcium oxalate market size has been greatly improved. It is estimated that by 2026, my country’s calcium oxalate market size is expected to reach 581 million yuan.

At present, the major calcium oxalate manufacturers in my country include Yalong Chemical, Qifei Pharmaceutical, Guangao Biotech, Shanghai Dafeng, etc. As my country’s industrial structure continues to upgrade, the pace of corporate mergers and acquisitions in the calcium oxalate industry is accelerating, some backward companies are gradually being eliminated, and the market is gradually concentrating on companies with technological advantages. The market concentration is expected to increase in the future.

Industry analysts said that calcium oxalate will produce a large amount of waste water and waste gas during the production process, causing serious consequences to the water environment and atmospheric environment. Influence. As my country’s environmental protection requirements become increasingly stringent, calcium oxalate production companies are paying more attention to environmental issues and continuously increasing investment in research and development. How to reduce waste in calcium oxalate production may become a focus of research and development in the future.
