Process
- The
wax/sugarcane wax is extracted from tea waste/sugarcane pressmud
by solvent extraction. It is fractionated and purified. After
trans-esterification under appropriate conditions, it is further
purified and fractionally crystallised from suitable organic
solvents. The product is tested for purity by thin layer
chromatography.
- The
equipments needed are extraction unit, distillation unit, water
bath, concentration unit, pressure vacuum pump and other
miscellaneous equipments.
Market
- It has
tremendous market potential in India with increased yields on
plants upto 30%. The current selling price of triacontanol is
$400 / gm and hence has good scope for export.
- n-Triacontanol
and its formulations have shown excellent market potential.
Number of tea planters in the country have shown keen interest
especially after reported increase in the yield by 25% to 40%.
Its applications in agriculture and horticulture fields will
certainly improve the demand further in the near future.
Application
-
Triacontanol improved the rate and extent of plants growth. It
also stimulates photosynthesis and several enzyme activities.
- Its
efficiency is proved for high yield in the case of number of
field crops like barely, rice, tomatoes, maize, lettuce,
cucumber, potatoes, cauliflower, brinjal, chillies, etc.
