AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the potential for extracting Nicotine and Anabasine from energy production materials and exploring their market applications. Both chemicals are identified as being used in insecticides and the smoking industry. The inquiry focuses on understanding market demand, pricing, and sourcing for these chemicals. It is noted that platforms like Alibaba can be used to find suppliers for Nicotine and Anabasine. Suggestions include marketing to local vape shops or pest control companies, emphasizing the potential for lucrative side businesses depending on production levels and legal considerations. Engaging with larger pest control companies is highlighted as a viable strategy, as they may have the capacity and incentive to purchase large quantities.

Hey there!

I am working in a business development department of an energy production company.
We just found out that from the materials we are producing energy from it is possible to extract Nicotine and Anabasine too. So my work is to find out where it is used, what is the market price and what is the demand.

Is there anything like Alibaba for chemicals?

Any help appreciated!
