Soap manufacturing process with all important points

1. Manufacturing of Detergent Soap – Process Design & Analysis Mini Project Dept. of Chemical Engineering

2. Introduction • Importance of detergent soap • Difference between soap and detergent • Market demand overview

3. Objectives • Study chemistry of soap/detergent production • Analyze raw materials & process • Design a process flow diagram • Estimate cost & environmental aspects

4. Raw Materials • Oils/Fats (Coconut, Palm) • Alkali (NaOH, KOH) • Surfactants (LABSA, SLS) • Additives (perfume, colors, fillers)

5. Chemistry of Soap Formation Reaction: Fat/Oil + NaOH → Soap + Glycerol • Hot vs Cold process

6. Chemistry of Detergent Reaction: LABSA + NaOH → Sodium Alkylbenzene Sulfonate • Mixing with builders, fillers • Spray drying or cake molding

7. Process Flow Diagram Raw materials → Reactor → Mixer → Dryer → Cutting/Molding → Packaging

8. Equipment Used • Reactor • Spray Dryer • Mixer • Packaging Machine

9. Material & Energy Balance Example: 100 kg batch • 70 kg oil + 10 kg NaOH → 75 kg soap • Yield ~90%

10. Cost Estimation • Raw material cost ~ ₹45/kg • Production cost ~ ₹55/kg • Market price ~ ₹70/kg • Profit margin ~20%

11. Environmental & Safety • Wastewater treatment required • Worker safety (handling caustic soda) • Biodegradability of soap vs detergent

12. Future Scope • Eco-friendly surfactants • Enzyme-based detergents • Sustainable packaging

13. Conclusion • Chemistry, process, and design analyzed • Cost estimation shows feasibility • Sustainable practices essential
