Formalin is a clear, colorless solution of formaldehyde gas in water, typically containing 37–40% formaldehyde by weight and a small amount of stabilizer such as methanol. It is widely used as a disinfectant, preservative, and chemical intermediate in industries like textiles, leather, and healthcare for preserving biological specimens. Its strong antibacterial and antifungal properties make it essential for sanitation and laboratory applications, but it is toxic and requires careful handling to avoid health hazards such as irritation, respiratory issues, or long-term exposure risks.

Setting up a formalin production plant involves securing raw materials like methanol and formaldehyde, choosing a suitable reaction and distillation process, and installing storage, mixing, and packaging units. Key requirements include proper ventilation, safety equipment, pollution control systems, skilled manpower, and regulatory approvals. The plant should comply with environmental and safety standards, ensuring controlled production, storage, and handling of this toxic chemical. Efficient planning minimizes risks while optimizing output for industrial and laboratory use.
