Chlorine producers are companies that manufacture chlorine, a chemical element widely used in various industries and applications. Chlorine is produced by the electrolysis of brine, a solution of sodium chloride (salt) in water. It is an essential chemical that plays a crucial role in the production of numerous products, ranging from household disinfectants to industrial chemicals.
The major producers of chlorine are large chemical companies that have extensive infrastructure and expertise in chemical manufacturing. These companies typically operate large-scale chlorine manufacturing plants, which are highly automated and require significant capital investments. Some of the major chlorine producers globally include Dow Chemical Company, Occidental Petroleum Corporation, AkzoNobel, and BASF SE.
Chlorine is produced through the chloralkali process, which involves the electrolysis of brine in an electrochemical cell. The cell consists of a cathode and an anode, which are separated by a diaphragm or a membrane. Direct electrical current is passed through the brine solution, causing the chloride ions (Cl-) to be oxidized at the anode, releasing chlorine gas (Cl2). Meanwhile, sodium ions (Na+) are reduced at the cathode, producing sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution.
The chlorine produced by these manufacturers is transported in various forms, including compressed gas in large containers or in the form of liquid chlorine. It is then used in numerous industries such as water treatment, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, textiles, paper manufacturing, chemical production, and many more.
Chlorine plays a vital role in water treatment, where it is used as a disinfectant to kill or inactivate harmful microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. It is also employed in the manufacture of various pharmaceutical products, including medicines, antiseptics, and insecticides.
In the agricultural sector, chlorine is used for crop protection, particularly as a pesticide and herbicide. It helps control the spread of pests and diseases in crops and facilitates their growth. Additionally, chlorine is used in the production of PVC (Polyvinyl chloride), a widely used plastic in industries for making pipes, fittings, packaging materials, and more.
Overall, chlorine producers play a critical role in satisfying the growing demand for this versatile chemical, enabling the production of a wide range of products that are essential for everyday life and industrial applications.

Rapidly expanding manufacturing of zinc-bromine batteries, strong eco-friendly competitors for lithium counterparts, is to stimulate the growth of the global bromine market. Compared to lithium analogues, zinc-bromine batteries are more cost-effective and less flammable because they can function at high temperatures. Developers and producers of zinc-bromine battery components are actively fundraising last year thanks to the high market potential. Gelion launched an IPO on the London Stock Exchange, while Neogen Chemicals’ stocks more than doubled in 2021.
