What are the current market prices of Hydrogen, Ammonia, Sulfuric
Acid, Nitric Acid, Ammonia Sulfate, Ammonia Nitrate, Iron Sulfate,
Aluminum Sulfate, and Ethylene on a per ton or pound basis?
I am interested in sources for current market values, as well as
information on where geographically the chemicals are produced, sold
and consumed? Capacities, capital costs, and the location of these
chemical production facilities? The variablility of chemical costs
based on where they are consumed? Any further information on these
chemicals is appreciated.
Ask me any questions and let me know if the scope of this problem is
too large for the payment, as the payment can be increased if the
answer warrants it. |

melahn-ga,
Virtually all of the information you asked about -- prices,
geographical variation, production, etc -- can be found at a single
online source. For instance, here are the prices for all your
chemicals (except hydrogen -- the source doesn't include gases):
===============
Nitric acid $215-225/ton
Ammonia, fertilizer grade $315-325/ton
Ammonium nitrate $169-175/ton
Ammonium sulfate $140-152/ton
Aluminum sulfate $335/ton
Sulfuric acid, virgin $57-94/ton
Ferrous sulfate, moist $10-15/ton
Ferrous sulfate, dry $162-170/ton
Ethylene $0.37/lb
===============
However, to gather up all the information you requested would be a
large undertaking, and would necessitate purchasing a subscription to
the online publication in question.
You may be better off simply subscribing yourself, so that you can
access the information directly, as well as any other material you are
interested in.
Let me know if this would suffice as an answer to your question, and
if so, I will post the details about accessing the information
yourself.
However, if you would prefer to have me dig out the information, let
me know, and I will get back to you with what I consider to be a fair
price for the task.
Looking forward to your reply,
