Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES) production from chlorosulfonic acid, lauryl ethoxylate, and sodium hydroxide. The process examined is a typical sulfation process. In the process examined, lauryl ethoxylate reacts with chlorosulfonic acid (sulfation). The product is neutralized with sodium hydroxide, producing the surfactant. The final product obtained is SLES, containing 70 wt% of active matter. In addition, hydrochloric acid (33 wt%) is also generated as by-product. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) "Sulfonation and Sulfation", Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 5th edition (2) Handbook of Detergents, Part F: Production Keywords: Sodium Laureth Sulfate, SLS, Caustic Soda, Sulfation, Sulfurylation
