Connection between Technologies & chemistry
-
Batch reaction - chlorination, bromination, photo halogenation, Grignard chemistry, Friedel Crafts chemistry, reduction through Wolff-Kishner & chiral chemistry.
- These processes are suitable for small-scale production, high-value products, or complex reactions that require precise control of the reaction conditions.
-
Continuous reaction - reduction through hydrogenation & olefin metathesis/polymerization.
- These processes are suitable for large-scale production, low-value products, or simple reactions that require less control of the reaction conditions.
-
High pressure reaction - reduction through hydride salts & cross coupling chemistry.
- These processes involve the use of high pressure (above atmospheric pressure) to increase the reaction rate, shift the equilibrium, or enable reactions that are otherwise not possible at normal pressure.
-
Cryogenic reaction - photo halogenation & chiral chemistry.
- These processes involve the use of very low temperatures (below -150°C) to decrease the reaction rate, preserve the reactants or products, or enable reactions that are otherwise not possible at normal temperature.
-
Exothermic reaction - chlorination, bromination, photo halogenation, Grignard chemistry, Friedel Crafts chemistry & olefin metathesis/polymerization.
- These processes involve the release of heat as a product of the reaction. Exothermic reaction can be used to generate heat, power, or light for various applications.
-
High vacuum distillation - reduction through Wolff-Kishner & chiral chemistry.
- These processes involve the separation or purification of liquids that have very high boiling points or are thermally sensitive. High vacuum distillation can be used to produce lubricating oils, waxes or pharmaceuticals.
-
Fractional distillation - reduction through hydrogenation & olefin metathesis/polymerization.
- These processes involve the separation or purification of liquids that have similar boiling points or are miscible. Fractional distillation can be used to produce gasoline, diesel, kerosene or ethanol.
-
Short path distillation - reduction through hydride salts & cross coupling chemistry.
- These processes involve the separation or purification of liquids that have very low volatility or are highly viscous. Short path distillation can be used to produce essential oils, fragrances or cannabinoids.
-
Flash distillation - Grignard chemistry & Friedel Crafts chemistry.
- These processes involve the separation or purification of liquids that have different vapor pressures or are immiscible. Flash distillation can be used to produce fresh water from seawater, alcohol from fermented mash or steam from hot water.
-
Wiped film distillation - photo halogenation & chiral chemistry.
- These processes involve the separation or purification of liquids that have high boiling points, low volatility or high viscosity. Wiped film distillation can be used to produce fatty acids, glycerol or vitamins.

Some comparison with aether industries
Shree ganesh remedies vs Aether Industries.
Technolgies
Chemistries
From Aether DRHP -
These are high value and Low Volume business. Moat in this these types of business is their Niche chemistry and see the R&D team.
Aether R&D Team
Shree ganesh
The Number of chemistries they are trying to do and the complexity.
AGM Notes:
Risks:
- Customer Concentration.
- Competition from China and Europe.
- Raw materials
From DHRP
- Sector wise revenue concentration
Aether industries 2023 PPT
Concall
- Scaling of business - long term risk.
Sorry in advance if something is wrong. These are some of the Notes i have prepared.
Note: i am not expert in chemical or any other industry.
Today’s Specialty is tomorrow’s commodities.
