TALK OF THE MONTH
NEED FOR KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT
IN CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES
As the global economy is increasingly and rapidly getting integrated, possession of updated global
knowledge with regard to various developments in chemical and allied industry has become a matter
of vital necessity for chemical industry professionals all over the world.
Today, chemical professionals are living in an era of global compulsions and there are major
challenges to be met. They have to strive in competitive global environment that have cultural
diversities and concept of universal citizenship in an increasing globalising community.
Investment focus of multinational companies in developing countries
Further, with the market in developed countries getting saturated due to near stagnant population
and lack of adequate land area in the region, multinational companies are looking forward to invest
in developing countries in Asia and Africa, where the need of the population is high, though the
purchasing power of the natives are still poor.
In such scenario, multinational companies desiring to invest in developing countries to sustain their
growth, have to necessarily reposition themselves in tune with prevailing conditions in the regions.
Challenges and opportunities for chemical professionals
In this scenario, chemical industry professionals have huge opportunities as well as challenges,
Obviously, they can not remain isolated or remain pre occupied only with local conditions, as the
competitions are becoming global.
The preconditions for the chemical industry professionals to competently manage the challenging
scenario is to pay great attention to the task of knowledge management.
Knowledge management is a worthy function in chemical company, fully justifying its resource
requirement.
Knowledge management will remain a core component for any efforts to improve efficiency,
to innovative or to provide more response to the market needs and to the clients
Knowledge management can not be over looked by any chemical company that desire to
improve profitability and competitiveness.
Integrating global economy
In view of the environmental compulsions, changing
consumer expectations and emerging technologies,
chemical industry is undergoing sea change globally.
Product development efforts, technology optimisation
measures and energy management techniques are
being continuously updated by chemical companies all
over the world to maintain the competitive edge and
remain in the race.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 4
NEED FOR KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT IN CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES
Knowledge management is an integrated subject, requiring cross assimilation of latest technology
practices, emerging substitution possibilities, changing consumer preference, modern management
practices, apart from complete understanding of the trends in the policies and programmes of the
various countries and sociological issues in different regions.
To succeed in the competitive environment, substantial level of business knowledge and expertise on
global scale is required by chemical industry professionals.
Leadership of chemical industry is judged non only on the basis of technical competence and strong
knowledge of the company’s products as well as corporate structure but also is based on the broad
understanding of the cross section of activities and developments in a number of related fields and
awareness about the cultural variations in different regions.
The knowledge level of the chemical professionals should be quite broad, even if this means that in
certain areas, it may not reach the required depth.
India needs to focus on knowledge management
India needs to focus on intellectual value creation and not just in developing a manufacturing base.
Unfortunately, one gets an impression that India is not using its massive pool of talent to create new
technologies, which is possible only by strengthening knowledge management base.
Only when India assumes the status of a hub for intellectual property and knowledge management,
will its manufacturing base be competitive in a world that values innovation.
Need for knowledge management
expertise in chemical companies
To have knowledge management
expertise at adequate standards, the
chemical companies necessarily need
to create a forward looking think
tank in the organisations.
Certainly, knowledge management
team has to be different from
corporate planning group.
While the corporate planning group
is involved in working future growth
strategies, the knowledge
management team operates with
wider perspectives and in larger
areas. Knowledge management team
will be orienting and fine tuning the
company’s philosophy itself, in taking
an overall view of the developing
global scenario and the desired
strategies on how the company
should position itself in the global
sphere in the short and long term.

CHINESE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY
NOW HAVE DECISIVE ROLE IN WORLD Swaminathan Venkataraman,Director, Nandini Consultancy (S) Pte. Ltd., Singapore

Principal role of Chinese chemical industries
Chemical industries in China have played the principal role in the forging ahead of the Chinese
industry and economy to such a lofty position, that make people now say “China’s pain is the
world’s pain”.
What is very significant about Chinese chemical industry is that, while it has generously welcomed
investments and technology from developed countries, it has competently absorbed such
technologies in quick time, that has enabled Chinese chemical industries to be benefited significantly
in accelerating it’s pace of growth in appropriate and multiple directions.
It is remarkable that China has skilfully devised it’s policies and approach by creating suitable climate
for the overseas investment in China and at the same time, opening the Chinese market to the
international companies, that have made China to be the most important and active industrial hub
in the world. Such dynamic and robust policies have enabled Chinese chemical industries to gain
the most modern technologies from developed countries , which really took several years for the
multi national companies abroad to develop and which has been readily made available in China in
a short period.
When multinational companies implement projects in China adopting their updated engineering and
technology practices and go further to set up massive research and development institutions in
China, inevitably the technology strength of Chinese scientists and engineers get vastly improved, as
they come across such modern technologies and get themselves employed in operating such
technologies.
While recognising the contribution of multinational companies in boosting industrial and economic
activities in China (which has been made possible by the pragmatic investment and promotional
policies of the Chinese government), it has to be recognised that chemical industries in China have
also oriented the course of investments and growth in China, in a manner appropriate to the
resource position, need and priorities of China. This explains the present advantageous position that
China enjoys in the world, where China is no more looked at as mere recipient of technologies and
investments but as a self propelled industrial and economic giant.
Many people around the world now attribute the present so called “global meltdown” to the
slow down in the industrial and economic activities in China.
Obviously, this implies that Chinese economy and industries have the most decisive role in
influencing the global economic trends at present.
Those who have been closely following the developments in Chinese industries over the last
few decades readily know that the phenomenal level of industrial investments in China have
resulted in a big leap forward for China and propelled it as the most important region in the
world.
The leadership of China and the aggressive and forward looking approach of the industries in
China can justifiably take credit for pushing China to such an important position, out beating
several other developed countries in the level of growth and it’s direction.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 6
CHINESE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY NOW HAVE DECISIVE ROLE IN WORLD
Original and innovative initiatives
Several original, appropriate and innovative initiatives of China can be readily pointed out, that have
enabled China to reach its present pivotal position in the world market.
Promotion of a number of coal to liquids, coal to olefins and coal to monoethylene glycol (MEG)
projects in China is a bold and dynamic strategy, that help in substantially exploiting it’s massive coal
resources advantageously.
Coal to liquid production in China commenced in 2009 and is reported to have reached 29000 bbl
per day in four plants and is expected to increase to more than 310000 bbl per day by 2016.
The pace of progress of coal to liquid projects in China is really amazing.
The production of methanol and derivatives from coal has been developed principally in China.
The production of MEG and olefins for polyethylene and polypropylene is now reported to have
reached capacities of 1.7 million metric tonne per annum.
Such strategy in using coal resource for the production of coal based chemicals, which can be
substitute for petrochemicals, has not been adopted by any other coal rich country in a scale that
has been done in China. This investment in coal to olefin project will certainly stand China in good
stead in the long run, reducing the dependence on crude oil and natural gas import for the
production of petrochemicals.
While the present drop in crude oil price have made the economy of coal to olefin projects a little
suspect (as coal to olefin project would be competitive only with the crude oil price remaining
above 70 USD per barrel), this is a temporary issue, as the crude oil price are bound to increase to
the level of 70 USD per barrel and above sooner or later.
DME projects
China’s strategy of making massive investment in setting up dimethyl ether (DME) projects and
promoting the use of DME as fuel substituting it for LPG, is yet another appropriate and unique
strategy followed by China.
Such examples, as described above, only highlight the fact that China is not copying the pattern of
growth of the Western countries or mindlessly following the schemes adopted elsewhere.
Chinese chemical industries have their own mind set, which are guided by ground realities in China.
Over capacity – No issue
Chinese chemical industries have been building huge capacities for the production of several building
blocks and derivative chemicals.
For example, at present, there are more than 200 petroleum refining companies across China,
including state owned companies like Sinopec, CNPC, CNOOC and Sinochem as well as other
refineries of lesser capacity. The capacity of a single refining unit of these companies is typically
between 2 million metric tonne per annum and 10 million metric tonne per annum, which are of
globally competitive size.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 7
CHINESE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY NOW HAVE DECISIVE ROLE IN WORLD
The critics have been arguing that Chinese chemical industries have created huge capacity for the
production of several chemical products, far more than the demand in China. The critics even
suspect that Chinese investors have not carried out appropriate demand supply analysis for such
chemicals in the Chinese and global market, before taking investment decisions. Chinese project
promoters have even been described as over enthusiastic.
While there may be some truth in such criticism in isolated cases, the fact is that China will not
suffer in any significant manner due to such over capacity creation in the long term.
As a matter of fact, investors in chemical industries in several other countries have adopted similar
practice of over capacity creation, anticipating growth in demand in the future as well as targeting
international market and for adopting the strategy of optimising the investment level.
Middle East countries have been building such over capacities in recent years with regard to several
petro chemicals, in spite of the fact that the market demand in middle east regions are comparatively
very small. In recent times, in the wake of the shale gas boom in US, large capacities are being built
for ethane based products and their derivatives in USA, only viewing the global market and
anticipating growth in demand.
It can be seen that with regard to such approach of building over capacities, the strategies adopted in
China, Middle East countries and USA are really not much different. However, one cannot miss the
fact that China is particularly better placed to adopt such over capacity creation strategy, in view of
the potentially large domestic market in China, which remains not fully exploited as of now.
Forward looking plans for shale gas projects
China is putting forth special and sustained efforts to exploit the shale gas resource in China,
that would augment the production of gas and oil and make China less dependent on import of the
critical petrochemical feedstock and fuel. This is a typical case of China looking beyond the present
time to sustain its long term growth and stability.
China plans to produce 6.5 billion cubic meters of shale gas by 2015, 15 billion cubic meters by 2017
and more than 30 billion cubic meters by 2020.
Sinopec has developed a series of technologies for horizontal drilling hydrofracture, production
testing, etc. These technologies are likely to improve operating efficiency, as the technologies are in
tune with the characteristics of China’s shale gas formations.
Production of Jiaoye 1 HF well are reported to yield 60 000 cubic meters per day for more than
700 consecutive days; Jiaoye 6-2HF achieved a cumulative output of 120 million cubic meters,
becoming the first in China to break the 100 million cubic meters mark.
It is reported the new capacity of 2 million cubic meters has been made exploitable.
OVER CAPACITY
CREATION CONSIDERED AS A FORWARD
LOOKING,
PROGRESSIVE AND DYNAMIC
EXERCISE.
With the world demand for chemical products steadily increasing,
the regions and the companies that build capacities anticipating
growth, as forward planning strategy, are bound to reap the benefits
in the long term. Such over capacity creation would serve the
regions and the companies well, as and when the demand would
inevitably increase. Therefore, over capacity creation keeping in tune
with the advanced technology parameters, must be considered as a
forward looking, progressive and dynamic exercise.

CHINESE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY NOW HAVE DECISIVE ROLE IN WORLD
Safety and environmental issues
Critics have been expressing concern above the safety and environment issues in Chinese chemical
industries. The recent explosion in chemical warehouse in Tianjin has received adverse publicity
around the world.
However, it has to be kept in mind that in US and Europe also, a number of environmental hazards
and accidents have been reported in recent times, in several multinational companies such as
DuPont. A few examples of grave safety issues in multi national companies in recent times are note
worthy.
Explosions occurred in LyondellBasell Industries’ site at Berre, France, on 14 July 2015.
An explosion at Hanwha Chemical’s (Seoul) polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plant at Ulsan, South Korea, on
3 July 2015, killed six people and injured one.
OSHA has placed DuPont in its severe violator enforcement programme, after inspections that
followed a fatal accident in November 2014 at the company’s La Porte, Texas site, found “serious,
wilful and repeat violations.”
In China, on December 5,2014, the environmental ministry issued the comprehensive plan for the
treatment of volatile organic compounds in the petrochemical industry, kicking off a nationwide
crackdown on VOCs.
Such pro active environmental and safety measures will certainly improve the conditions in China
in the coming years
Obviously, it need not be said that Chinese chemical industries are slowing down. It would be
appropriate to state that the growth of Chinese chemical industries are now stabilizing, after the
extraordinary growth achieved in recent years.
Today, entire world appears to be looking up to China to sustain the growth of global economy.
In view of the dominant position already achieved by China, it appears that China will continue to be
the engine for growth for the world economy and the world chemical industry in particular.
The fundamentals of chemical industry in China are sound and healthy and the world can be rest
assured than China will continue to grow at stabilised growth level, taking the world forward along
with it.
Chinese chemical industries will continue to dominate
While foreign direct investment has come down
recently in China, the fact is that it has only slowed
down and it is still growing at around 2.1 % year on
year.
China achieved spectacular progress in the last few
decades, with average annual growth exceeding the
world average annual growth considerably. It is not
wise to expect that such extraordinary growth can be
sustained for all time to come. Such expectations are
impractical.
WILL CHINA
DOMINATE
THE 21ST CENTURY ?

OIL PRICE COULD FALL TO $ 20 PER BARREL
FINDINGS OF THE STUDY
At the same time, an expected strong rise in demand on the back of global economic growth has
failed to materialise due to faltering performance by key countries such as China.
The OPEC cartel of Middle East oil producers has traditionally tried to balance the market by
reducing output in time of low oil prices but this time, OPEC has chosen to try to drive its US shale
rivals out of business, something that it has so far failed to do.
Goldman admits the $20 level is a worst case scenario and it has been wrong in the past by
predicting $200 oil. But other banks are also cutting their price expectations for this year and next.
Forecast of Internatiional Energy Agency
Meanwhile, the International Energy Agency said output cuts had started around the world which
would eventually drive up prices again.
In its latest monthly report, the Paris based organisation said: “Oil’s price collapse is closing down
high cost production from Eagle Ford in Texas to Russia and the North Sea.”
Aberdeen, the centre of the UK offshore oil industry, has already seen a dramatic slump in drilling
levels and thousands of job cuts, as oil companies cut their budgets in line with the collapse in crude
prices.
Report of Oil & Gas UK
The annual economic report for Oil & Gas UK disclosed that the total number of people employed
in the oil exploration sector had fallen from 440,000 to 375,000 since the beginning of 2014.
The lobby group said many oilfields were now operating at a loss and predicted more redundancies
were likely.
The collapse of prices make oil companies reluctant to commit to new fields.
Forecast of Goldmand Sachs
“The oil market is even more oversupplied than we had expected and we
now forecast this surplus to persist in 2016, with the potential for oil
prices to fall to such levels, which we estimate near $20 per bbl, is
becoming greater”, the US investment bank said in a research note.
The trigger for the original energy price collapse which started last summer
was a realisation that new oil production, particularly from new US shale
wells and Iraq, was expanding much faster than expected.
Oil prices could fall to $20 a barrel says Goldman Sachs - as it happened ...but the IEA thinks
OPEC’s strategy is working and forcing expensive oil out of the market.
The value of the benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude has already fallen from $107 last
June to less than $44 but analysts at Goldman Sachs forecast another huge plunge in WTI.
It last traded at $20 a barrel in 2002.

Nagarjuna Oil Corporation Ltd. is implementing 6 million metric tonne per year capacity
petroleum refinery project at Thiruchopuram, Kayalpattu and Kamblemedu villages in the
Cuddalore Taluk in Tamil Nadu.
The project has been designated as the anchor unit of the proposed Petroleum, Chemicals
and Petrochemicals Investment Region (PCPIR) in Cuddalore/Nagapattinam Districts.
According to reports, the total investment in the project so far is Rs.8,000 crore, which
includes Rs.4,500 crore expenditure and Rs.3,500 crore interest.
Process plant works of this project commenced in July,2008. It is now claimed that the
project would be commissioned by end 2017, after protracted delay.
The refinery, which once had a strength of 450 personnel, has seen a steady staff erosion
over time.
The equity holders in the company are Nagarjuna Fertilizer, Tata Petrodyne, a unit of the
Tata Group,. Tamil Nadu government through TIDCO, Uhde of Germany and the
Cuddalore Port .

DELAYED PROJECT OF NAGARJUNA OIL CORPORATION IN TAMIL NADU
Source of crude oil
The company has tied up with British energy company BP for sourcing crude oil, that would be
processed at the refinery.
BP would also be responsible for export of 25 percent of fuel produced at the unit. The remaining
product will be sold domestically.
Protracted delay and financial restructuring exercise
Under construction for several years now, the project has thus far been funded by the promoter
Nagarjuna Group and bank consortium led by IDBI and including State Bank of India.
At the recent Global Investor Meet in Tamil Nadu, the Government of Tamil Nadu extended a
structured package of incentives. Along with concessions and subsidy, it granted a VAT refund
amounting to about Rs.12,500 to 18,000 crore as soft loan at 0.1 percent interest to be repaid after
16 years. This means, in the net present value, if the VAT refund is Rs.18,000 crore , the company
will receive Rs.3000 crore refund annually during the first six years of commissioning.
Under the proposed restructure, Netoil will infuse Rs.4000 crore fresh equity including Rs.3,700
crore additional equity and Rs.300 crore to buy out all the shareholders except that of Tamil Nadu
Industrial Development Corporation.
Netoil will buy out Nagarjuna Group’s 47 percent stake, Tata Group’s 25 percent, Trafigura’s
20 percent and that of Cuddalore Port Company and Uhde of Germany, which hold 2 percent each
at 82 percent discount to face value.
This VAT refund is said to have become a bone of contention, as the lenders, who are now exposed
to this venture to the tune of Rs.6,000 crore, want a portion from the VAT refunds by way of
compensation for writing off previous debt.

Infrastructure
Located 200-km South of Chennai on
the East Coast, the refinery will have
associated marine infrastructure
including single-point mooring (for
crude oil handling in large crude
carriers) and jetty(for finished product
handling).
The project site is spread around
2000 acres, which includes 300 acres
of green belt.
Additional investments are being made
in infrastructure facilities such as a
captive port, tankages and power
plants by Nagarjuna Oil's associate
companies.

OIL AND GAS DISCOVERY
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN INDIA
Discovery by ONGC
State run Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC) has made another discovery in its Bay of Bengal block
KG-D5, taking the number of finds in the area to 13.
The 7,294.60 sq km deep sea KG-D5 block has been broadly categorised into Northern Discovery
Area (NDA - 3,800.6 sq km) and Southern Discovery Area (SDA - 3,494 sq km). The latest
discovery has been made in Northern Discovery Area.
ONGC plans to develop the discoveries in three clusters -- 14.5 million standard cubic meters per
day of gas for 15 years from Cluster-1 comprising of D&E finds of NDA in KG-D5 block and
G-4 find in the neighbouring area.
Cluster-2A mainly comprises of oil finds of A2, P1, M3, M1 and G-2-2 in NDA which can produce
75,000 barrels per day (3.75 million metric tonne per annum).
Cluster 2B, which is made up of four gas finds -- R1, U3, U1, and A1 in NDA -- envisages a peak
output of 14 mmscmd of gas, with cumulative production of 32.5 bcm of gas in 14 years.
ONGC is initially looking at developing Cluster-2, It plans to get first gas by mid 2018 and first oil by
mid-2019.
Cluster-3 is the UD-1 gas discovery in SDA. UD-1 lies in water depth of 2,400 to 3,200 meters and
there is no technology to produce from such depths. And so Cluster-3 is presently not being
pursued for development.
Oil produced from Cluster-2 is proposed to be taken on to an FPSO (Floating Production Storage
and Offloading) anchored in high sea, from where it will then be transfered to tankers for
transportation to refineries. Gas on the other hand will be evacuated on to Fixed platform through
18 inch, 21.4 km pipeline.
Gas will then be taken to an existing terminal at Odalarevu in Andhra Pradesh, for processing and
sale.
Besides F-1, ONGC had also made gas discovery in an onland block in Andhra Pradesh.
It also found a new pool in Cauvery onland block in Tamil Nadu.
ONGC discovered oil and
gas in the well F-1 in the
northern part of the KG
basin block KG-DWN-98/2
or KG-D5, which sits next
to the KG-D6 block of
Reliance Industries.
On conventional testing,
exploratory well F-1 flowed
oil at the rate of
732 barrels per day and gas
at the rate of 13,155 cubic
meters a day.

OIL AND DISCOVERY - RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN INDIA GAS
Auction of oil fields off Mumbai
More than a third of the mall and marginal oil and gas fields that the government plans to auction to
private firms are in Mumbai offshore and the biggest of them holds about 15 million metric tonne of
oil reserves.
Of the 69 idle oil and gas fields of state owned ONGC and Oil India Ltd which are to be auctioned,
27 are in Mumbai Offshore, while another 15 are in the prolific Krishna-Godavari (K-G) basin.
As many as 10 discoveries in the Assam Shelf are also on offer.
The discoveries, which the government says were given up by the two oil companies as they were
unable to develop them for varied reasons, include ones made as late as 2012 to 13.
In all, seven marginal discoveries of ONGC date back to less than five years, with 2012 to 2013
Koravaka gas field in KG basin being the youngest. An equal number of finds were made between
2005 to 2006 and 2008 to 2009.
Cumulatively, the surrendered small and marginal fields hold about 50.8 million tons of oil and
53.45 billion cubic meters of gas.

Focus of the report Global crude oil price fall in recent months has surprised even the discerning observers. Now, there is world wide debate as to what has caused the crude price fall and whether the price fall would persist and how long. This research report recommends that India should use this opportunity to work out it’s short term and long term strategies for crude oil sourcing and pricing. A few appropriate strategies have been suggested:
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 14
WHITHER ETHANOL BLENDING IN INDIA ?
State of the Indian sugar industry
Given the absence of any worthwhile incentive to supply ethanol, especially to far away states and
the fact that the balance sheets of sugar mills are already stressed so much that banks are unwilling
to provide even working capital loans to them, adding fresh capacity to produce more ethanol is out
of the question at this hour.
However, the department of revenue is reluctant to make the duty paid on molasses cenvatable.
Therefore, the effective gains to producers would be just around Rs 2 per litre. This is because
earlier producers were given Cenvat credits (effectively to the tune of Rs 3 per litre) on the excise
duty paid on ethanol.
Supply and tender
Currently, while the country has the capacity to produce 224 crore litres of ethanol a year,
oil marketing companies (OMCs) have floated expression of interests seeking supplies of 266 crore
litres for implementing the 10% blending plan across the country, barring a few regions, which were
outside the ambit of the programme. Supplies against the tender are expected to be far less than
the amount sought.
Food department is reported to have asked Uttar Pradesh, the country’s biggest producer of cane
and ethanol, to supply 56 crore litres of ethanol a year. UP, however, has the capacity to produce
only 35 crore litres of ethanol annually. Similarly, Maharashtra has been asked to supply 53 crore
litres and Karnataka 25 crore litres of ethanol a year, whereas their capacities to produce this stand
at around 20 crore litres and 23 crore litres respectively.
Close on the heels of Prime Minister directing various ministries to try and make ethanol
blending with petrol in the proposed 10:90 ratio a reality, the food department has set targets
for major producing states for supplies of this bio-fuel. It has asked the states to ramp up
supplies of ethanol and submit their views on the targets proposed by the Centre soon.
However, the sugar industry that produces ethanol, meanwhile, is finding itself unable to
commit entire supplies for the proposed 10% blending with petrol, unless supplies are
reasonably incentivised, administrative reforms are implemented and further capacity created.
The finance ministry’s
unwillingness to change the
central value-added tax
(CENVAT) rules and allow the
excise duty paid on molasses to
be Cenvatable is the latest in a
series of nagging issues haunting
the ethanol producers.
In April 2015, when the Cabinet
Committee On Economic Affairs
(CCEA) decided to scrap a 12.5%
excise duty on ethanol from
October 1, the industry assumed
it would gain Rs.5 per litre from
such a move.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 15
WHITHER ETHANOL BLENDING IN INDIA ?
Since ethanol producers are already struggling to supply due to states’ unwillingness to abolish levies
on the inter state movement of the bio fuel and also effect administrative reforms, including digitising
the excise permit processes, the latest move to set targets for states may not yield the desired
results.
Dismal achievement
These reasons explain why the country could achieve only 1.4% ethanol blending with petrol in the
last fiscal, even lower than the 2013 to 2014 level of 2%, more than a decade after the government
first mooted sales of 5% ethanol blended petrol and made it mandatory later.

Uttar Pradesh Maharashtra Karnataka
As many as nine states,
including Gujarat, Maharashtra,
Uttar Pradesh and Delhi,
impose levies up to Rs 3 per
litre on intra-state movement
of ethanol.
The Govt. of India has also
stipulated that mills have to
sell ethanol at Rs 49.50 per
litre at the depot of OMCs
locating beyond 300 km.
This is a loss making
proposition for mills that have
to supply at depots in
far away places.
Moreover, states like UP
refuse to digitise its excise
permit processes and cause
huge delay in granting the no
objection certificates for the
supply of ethanol outside the
state.

REVIVAL PROGRAMME FOR SICK UREA UNITS
Government’s action plans
Government of India has set up a committee, headed by NITI Aayog Vice Chairman to oversee the
revival of three urea plants as well as the progress of Jagdishpur-Haldia gas pipeline, entailing
investments of Rs 23,000 crore.
The committee will oversee the revival of closed state run urea plants in Gorakhpur (UP),
Sindri ( Jharkhand) and Barauni ( Bihar).
It will also review the progress on construction of Jagdishpur-Haldia gas pipeline, a senior official told
PTI.
The committee will work on to establish the single window mechanism to provide required
approvals for revival of three urea plants, and the gas pipeline.
Gas to all these urea plants would be provided at the pooling price from the Jagdishpur-Haldia
pipeline which requires an investment of Rs 5,000 crore.
Each urea plant will require an investment of Rs 6,000 crore. The government has already invited
bids for revival of urea plants at Gorakhpur and Sindri.
Both the projects will be awarded through bidding process and the selected investor will have to set
up, design, finance, construct, establish, operate and maintain a gas based urea plant for a term of
33 years.
Government wants that by the time these three urea plants are constructed, the gas pipeline should
also be ready.
State run GAIL is working on to set up about 2000 km Jagdishpur-Phulpur-Haldia pipeline.
Ramagundam Urea plant gets
green nod from MoEF
A committee under the Ministry of
Environment and Forests (MoEF) has
given environmental clearance for
the proposed Rs.5,465 crore
fertiliser plant in Ramagundam,
Telangana.
National Fertilizers Limited ( NFL),
Engineers India Limited (EIL) and
Fertilizer Corporation of India (FCIL)
had earlier signed an agreement to
form a joint venture company ( JVC)
for setting up two new -- Ammonia
and Urea -- plants at the existing site
of Ramagundam Fertilizer plant.
The JV formed a new company called
Ramagundam Fertilizers and
Chemicals Limited.

PRICING POLICY FOR COAL BED METHANE
Reliance Industries Ltd. (RIL) would start production of CBM from Sohagpur (West)
in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh in 2015 - 2016. It has another block in the vicinity — Sohagpur
(East). RIL is awaiting the completion of its pipeline to transport gas to users
The current natural gas price in India is $5.1 per mmBtu — approved by the NDA government —
and is expected to come down to $3.8 per mmBtu, when it is revised in September end. This will be
much below the $4.2 per mmBtu that the companies were getting until last year under the UPA
regime.
Reliance Industries (RIL) has received a setback, with the Government of India clarifying that the
prevailing natural gas prices will apply to coal bed methane (CBM) producers as well. This means
that RIL will have to settle for one third of the $12 per mmBtu (million British thermal unit) it had
sought for gas set to be generated at its Madhya Pradesh CBM blocks.
Essar Oil and GEECL sell gas from the CBM block at $10 to 11 per mBtu. This is because
government has approved a minimum floor price for these fields.
Raniganj (South) has an approved price of $6.79 per mmBtu, while Raniganj (East) has an approved
price for the incidental gas of $6.25. Essar Oil, however, has opted for the pricing regime approval
last year.
In China, CBM players claim a premium of $2 per mBtu, in addition to the prevalent gas price of
$11.9 per mBtu.
Industry view
CBM projects are capital intensive and different from conventional ones where a large number of
wells are required to be drilled at a faster pace.The industry view is that it would not be fair when
one operator sells gas at $10 to11 per mBtu and another(RIL) at $4 per mBtu. All are CBM blocks
under similar conditions and therefore, the disparity needs to be changed.
The current coal bed methane (CBM) output in the country is dismal. Just 1.1 million metric
standard cubic metres per day is produced from the fields of Essar Oil and
Great Eastern Energy Corporation (GEECL).
The CBM explorers have said that without ‘economically-viable’ pricing for CBM,
the investments may not see the light of day.
India offered 33 CBM blocks. However, 17 of them, or 50% of the blocks, have been
relinquished
The road block for revising the price of CBM may be that the gas pricing formula announced
by the Government of India is applicable for all types of natural gas.
The gross in-place CBM potentials of RIL's Eastern block is
1.69 trillion cubic feet (47.7 billion cubic metres), while it is
1.96 trillion cubic feet (55.5 billion cubic metres) for the western
acreage.
The company is expected to produce 4 to 5 mmscmd (million metric
standard cubic meters per day) of CBM gas from its blocks, taking
India's CBM gas production to 6 mmscmd from 1.1 mmscmd being
produced by Essar Oil and Great Eastern Energy Corporation (GEECL).
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 18
ONGC LOOKS TO PUT CBM BLOCKS
INTO PRODUCTION IN FY17
ONGC will commence production from two coal-bed methane (CBM) blocks —
Bokaro and North Karanpura — by as early as the first half of next financial year.
Under its plan, ONGC would spend Rs 2,000 to 2,500 crore to monetise its
CBM assets and reach an output level of 1.58 million metric standard cubic meter per
day (mmscmd) over the next three years.
ONGC board is likely to give the go-ahead
to the final field development plan for the
Bokaro block in. Post-approval, it would
require two to three months to hire rigs
and services to put on ground.
The output from the block is likely to hover
at 0.5 to 0.6 mmscmd initially, while the
peak output is envisaged at 0.74 mmscmd,
which could be achieved in three years.
ONGC would spend about Rs 1,100 crore
to bring the Bokaro block into production.
Nearly, 70 to 80 wells are to be drilled in
three years in the block. Of this, 25 to
30 wells would be drilled in the first year.

CARBON TRADING - BUSINESS & PROSPECTS
Worldwide, 437 companies said they are using internal carbon prices, up from 150 in 2014,
according to a report released by the Carbon Disclosure Project, a non profit that gathers
environmental data for investors. The number more than doubled in the U.S. and Canada and
swelled more than 10 fold in Asia, amid moves by the U.S., China and other countries to add new
regulations.
Businesses joining the list this year included General Electric Co., Colgate-Palmolive Co. and Nissan
Motor Co. Another 583 companies expect to start using a carbon price in the next two years,
including Yahoo! Inc. and the Chinese electric utility CLP Holdings Ltd., according to the Carbon
Disclosure Project’s third annual report.
China is pilot testing emissions trading markets and expects to expand the programme next year.
U.S., introduced regulations on greenhouse pollution from power plants this year, .
The United Nations, meanwhile, is brokering talks this year aimed at an international pact that would
commit more than 190 nations to limits on heat trapping pollution.
Companies said carbon prices help create incentives for energy efficiency projects or to switch to
less polluting fuels. In the U.S., utilities including Duke Energy Corp. and American Electric Power
Co. cited the expected cost of emissions in choosing to invest in low or no carbon generation,
according to the report.
The total list represents “more than $8 trillion worth of market value that has decided that this is an
important issue to begin building a management strategy around,".
The number of companies that put a price on their greenhouse-gas emissions for internal
planning almost tripled this year, a sign that businesses increasingly expect to face restrictions
on carbon pollution.

GENETICALLY MODIFIED CROP l
CONTROVERSIES AND BANS
Policy in Europe
Genetically modified (GM) crops and food can enter Europe as food, animal feed or biofuels.
GM food and feed must be approved by EU regulators and must be labelled, but meat and dairy
products produced from animals fed on GM feed are not required to be labelled.
Large quantities of GM soya and maize are imported into Europe, including Britain, as animal feed.
EU has also decided to allow GM feed to include trace levels of crops, which have no safety approval
in Europe (i.e. are unauthorised GM crops).
Germany, France, Luxembourg, Austria have Government sponsored voluntary labelling schemes for
non-GM-fed meat, milk and eggs, so that consumers can choose to buy non GM fed products.
In Sweden, GM feed is no longer used at all, due to consumer pressure.
In 2012, Turkey announced that GM-fed meat, milk and dairy products would be labelled.
European parliament approved a new law that allowed EU member nations to ban GMOs for
reasons 'other than science’, including country planning and socio economic impact. The new law
also extends to devolved administrations, such as Scotland as well as member states.
The announcement was welcomed by environmental groups opposed to GMOs, but criticized by
scientists, agribusiness leaders and farm organisations.
GM crops can be grown experimentally with approval from national regulators or commercially,
if approved by the EU.
Another GM crop was approved for cultivation in the EU in 2010: a potato known as the Amflora
potato, which has been genetically modified by BASF to produce starch for use in paper making.
It was grown in small quantities in Germany and Sweden in 2011. BASF then withdrew from planting
GM crops in Europe in January 2012 and in late 2013, the European Court annulled the
authorisation, arguing that it had not been granted lawfully.
In 2014, following another court case, the EU considered approving the commercial cultivation of
another insect resistant maize (Bt maize 1507) produced by DuPont.
Commercial growing in Europe
Only two GM crops have been approved for commercial growing
in the EU.
One is a variety of pest resistant maize (Bt maize) produced by
Monsanto (known as MON810). This is grown mainly in Spain
(and in smaller quantities in some other countries) for use in
animal feed.
Nine nations (Austria, Hungary, Luxembourg, Germany, Bulgaria,
Greece, Italy, France and Poland) had previously banned
cultivation of MON810 under so-called safeguard clauses.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 21
GENETICALLY MODIFIED CROP - CONTROVERSIES AND BANS
Syngenta's GA21 maize (which is tolerant to the weed killer glyphosate, brandname RoundUp) is the
only remaining GM crop in the commercial pipeline that would be suitable for growing, if plans to
opt into growing GM crops under new draft EU legislation go ahead.
Field trials in Europe
Many experimental field trials of GM crops have been conducted in Europe. In Britain, there have
been field trials of GM potatoes (one in Norfolk and one near Leeds) and GM wheat (at the
Rothamsted research centre in Hertfordshire). Trial of GM Camila sativa ("false flax") is planned at
Rothamsted. This crop has a genetically altered oil content (high in omega-3).
Attempts to introduce herbicide tolerant GM crops into Britain have been very controversial,
because of the suspected harmful effects on wildlife and the likely emergence of superweeds.
None of these crops are currently approved for commercial growing.
GM crops enter Britain mainly as animal feed. Most British retailers do not sell other GM foods and
if they stock them, they must be labelled (this is also the case elsewhere in Europe).
Meat and dairy products fed on GM animal feed are not labelled as GM-fed in British supermarkets.
Scenario in Germany
Germany’s national academy of sciences has endorsed genetically modified (GM) crops.
However, the German government is considering a new law to ban genetic modified organism
(GMO), after the European parliament passed a law allowing EU states to restrict or ban the
cultivation of EU approved GM crops.
Bundestag – Germany’s lower house of parliament will begin debate on whether or not to enact
a new law that would ban the cultivation of GM crops in Germany.
A permanent ban on GMO cultivation in Germany would be a death sentence for plant biotech
research in Germany.
Bayer Crop Science stopped conducting GM field trials in Germany in 2004, though the company
believes that scientific arguments will eventually succeed and open the door for GM crop cultivation
across Europe.
Another German firm, BASF, moved all of its transgenic plant operations to the US in 2012, blaming
hostility to GM crops.
Scenario in Britain
There is no commercial growing of GM crops
in Britain but there have been experimental
trials of GM potatoes and wheat in recent
years.
The Bt maize that is grown in Spain is not
suitable for growing in Britain and the pests it
is resistant to do not occur in Britain.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 22
GENETICALLY MODIFIED CROP - CONTROVERSIES AND BANS
Restriction in Scotland
The Scottish government has announced that it intends to ban the cultivation of GM crops approved
by EU regulatory authorities within its borders.
Restriction in Latvia and Greece
Latvia and Greece have made use of the new law by submitting requests to the EU to ban GM crop
cultivation.
Scenario in USA
A large percentage of GM maize grown in the US is now used in industrial scale biofuels (agrofuels)
subsidised by the US Government. Biofuels do not have to be labelled as containing GM crops and it
is possible that some GM biofuels are entering the EU, including Britain.
The Scottish government said that growing GM crops
could damage the nation's $14 billion food and drink
industry.
In announcing the ban, Scottish government argued that
prohibiting cultivation of GM crops would protect and
enhance Scotland’s ‘clean, green status’ and be beneficial
to Scotland’s economy.
An official request to ban GM crop cultivation will be
submitted to EU authorities. The Scottish ban would
include the already approved insect resistant maize
MON810 and six other GM crops awaiting EU
authorisation.
BAN ON HERBICIDE GLYPHOSATE IN CALIFORNIA
California’s Environmental Protection Agency (Cal/EPA) intends to list the herbicide
glyphosate – the active ingredient in Monsanto’s RoundUp – as a carcinogenic chemical
under the Proposition 65, which requires the state to publish a list of chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
The announcement came on 4th September 2015, following a conclusion by the World
Health Organisation’s International Agency for Research on Cancer in March 2015, that
glyphosate is a probable human carcinogen.
Sales of the product are not restricted by the Cal/EPA listing, but adding glysophate to the
Prop 65 list would mean that it is necessary to provide a ‘clear and reasonable’ health
warning on Roundup and other glyphosate products.
World usage of glyphosate is at an all-time high, with its use increasing more than 20-fold
since 1990, according to the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD).

Shell abandons Arctic exploration after failing to find enough crude
Royal Dutch Shell has abandoned its Arctic search for oil after failing to find enough crude, in a move
that will appease environmental campaigners and shareholders who said its project was too
expensive and risky.
Environmental campaigners and shareholders have also asked Shell to drop Arctic drilling. Some are
worried that an oil spill would harm protected species while others are concerned about the cost
after oil prices more than halved in a year.
"Shell has found indications of oil and gas in the Burger J well but these are not sufficient to warrant
further exploration," Shell said in a statement.
It said the decision to withdraw from the area reflected the results from the exploratory well, the
project's high costs and the unpredictable federal regulatory environment in the area off the
U.S. state of Alaska.

Titanium dioxide plant
Chemours is the largest global producer of TiO2, with current annual capacity of approximately
1.2 million metric tonne.
Chemours will close its Edgemoor, DE, USA titanium dioxide (TiO2) plant by the end of September
2015, as product margins slump and the company nears completing a 200,000 metric tonne per year
unit at Altamira, Mexico. Chemours also plans to shut a TiO2 line at its New Johnsonville, TN, site.
Castrol to close Mumbai plant
Castrol India Ltd has decided to permanently
close its Wadala plant in Mumbai, where it has
not been carrying out any production activity.
The company performed techno commercial
evaluation of the activities carried out at
Wadala and based on the outcome, it has been
decided to close the facility.
Shell has spent about $7 billion on
exploration in the waters off Alaska so far
and said that it could take a hit of up to $4.1
billion for pulling out of the Chukchi Sea for
the "foreseeable future".
The unsuccessful campaign is Shell's second
major setback in the Arctic, after it
interrupted exploration for three years in
2012, when an enormous drilling rig broke
free and grounded.

PLANT CLOSURES
The shutdowns will eliminate roughly 150,000 metric tonne per year of capacity. Production at the
$600 million Altamira TiO2 unit is scheduled to start in mid 2016.
Chemours, which was spun off from DuPont on 1 July, says the Edgemoor plant produces TiO2 for
use in paper applications that have declined steadily for years, which has resulted in under used
capacity at the plant.
The plants belonging to Chemours in Mississippi, Tennessee, Mexico, and Taiwan enjoy industry
leading productivity as well as the ability to use ore feedstock across the quality spectrum.

ANTI DUMPING PAGE
Float glass
The Finance Ministry of Government of India has imposed definitive anti dumping duty on certain
float glass imports from China.
This anti dumping duty has been levied on float glass of thickness 2 mm to 12 mm (both thickness
inclusive) of clear as well as tinted variety (other than green glass).
It, however, does not include reflective glass and the processed glass meant for decorative, industrial
or automotive purposes.
While recommending that anti dumping duty be continued on certain float glass import from China
for the next five years, the Designated Authority also recommended withdrawal of existing duties
against Indonesia.
The Designated Authority saw no credible evidence on the likelihood of continuation or recurrence
of dumping from Indonesia.
The petition seeking sunset review investigations was filed by Saint Gobain Glass India Ltd,
HNG Ltd, and Gold Plus Glass Industry Ltd, who collectively command 66 percent share in total
production in India.
There are two other known producers, Asahi India Glass Ltd and Gujarat Guardian Ltd, who have

PCBs are among the 22 persistent organic pollutants banned globally under the Stockholm
Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, known as the POPS Treaty.
India, which ratified the treaty in 2006, has to ban use of PCBs by 2025 and adopt measures to
reduce or eliminate releases from stock piles and waste by 2028.
Issuing a draft notification to phase out use of this toxic chemical in the country, the Environment
Ministry said that the government proposes to regulate manufacture, trade, use, import or export
of PCBs, equipment containing and contaminated with this chemical and dispose of PCB waste.

Demand for anti dumping duty on solar cells and modules
The Indian Solar Manufacturers’ Association has revived its demand for safeguard and anti dumping
duties on imported solar cells and modules. The association, a body of companies that produce cells
and modules, sent a formal petition to the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy on September 18.
The association has demanded investigation into imports from EU, US, China, Taiwan and Malaysia.
The petition comes against the backdrop of surge in imports of solar cells and modules (cells made
into modules). In 2014 - 2015, India imported $820.95 million worth of cells and modules, but
imports in the first four months of the current financial year (that is, April to July) were $381 million
or 46 percent of last full year.
Most imports are from China. Of last year’s total imports, 73 percent (or $603 million) came from
China. The trend is holding up. In the current year, the Chinese have sold $283 million worth of
solar cells and modules to India.
In May 2014, the government decided against imposing the duties, but told the domestic
manufacturers not to worry, assuring them that they would get enough business from the
government owned companies, who would put up solar projects. *****
‘No dumping levy’ between provisional, final orders
Interpreting Indian anti dumping laws in tune with international practices under WTO agreements,
the Supreme Court has declared that anti dumping duty cannot be levied during the interregnum
between the expiry of the provisional anti dumping duty and the imposition of final anti dumping
duty.
The Indian Customs Act states that provisional anti dumping can be in force for upto six months,
and the authorities will have to determine the final anti dumping duty by investigating the impact of
dumping of goods within a year from imposition of provisional anti dumping duty.
The Government of India then had claimed that the final anti dumping duty would take effect from
the date of imposition of the provisional duty.
This is the second time, that the Indian solar cell
manufacturers are taking up the issue of dumping with the
government. On an earlier occasion, upon the industry’s
petition, the Directorate General of Anti-dumping of the
Ministry of Commerce investigated imports from the US,
China, Taiwan and Malaysia and determined that there was
actually dumping. It recommended anti-dumping duties ranging
from $ 0.11 to $ 0.81 per watt.

SODIUM CHLORATE-GLOBAL SCENARIO
Application area
Sodium chlorate is used as a component in the bleaching process, an important process step in the
manufacturing of bleached pulp.
Outside China, about 98% of sodium chlorate production goes into pulp and paper manufacturing.
Smaller applications include water treatment and pesticides, but demand into these segments does
not present many opportunities.
Consumption norm
Amount of sodium chlorate required vary depending on the type of wood being treated. They also
depend on the bleaching sequences—how many stages of chlorine dioxide the process comprises—
and whether hydrogen peroxide is introduced at any stage.
Bleached pulp mills in North America consume, on average, about 45 kilograms of sodium chlorate
per metric tonne of bleached pulp. That figure has to do with the type of wood and the fact is that
pulp mills in North America tend to be older and the technology is not as efficient as in other
regions.
In comparison, new pulp mills in Brazil that have come onstream over the last five years and will be
online by 2020 consume on average 20 kilograms of sodium chlorate per metric tonne. of pulp at the
most.
Other mills in Latin America consume on average 30 kilograms of sodium chlorate per metric tonne.
The average in Europe is 30 to 35 kilogram per metric tonne .
Global Capacity
Worldwide sodium chlorate capacity amounts to 4.4 million metric tonne per year.
Scenario in Canada
Canada is the world’s largest producer of sodium chlorate, with capacity totaling 1.10 million metric
tonne per year.
For Canada’s sodium chlorate producers, cost pressures from increasing electricity prices have
—in addition to the balanced market—had the biggest impact on margins. Electricity accounts for at
least 70% of sodium chlorate production costs in Canada. Canada’s electricity market is quite
regulated, and the latest tariff increase increased electricity prices by about 4% for sodium chlorate
producers.
Electricity cost increase is difficult to pass on to sodium chlorate buyers, namely the bleached pulp
industry, on account of the balanced market. Despite burdensome electricity prices, Canada has
high share of bleached softwood capacity relative to bleached hardwood. This explains why Canadian
domestic uptake of [sodium chlorate] is holding up well.
Canada’s sodium chlorate producers export about 60% of their production to the United States
At present, Canada exports some 6,000 to 7,000 metric tonne per year of sodium chlorate to
Portugal.

SODIUM CHLORATE-GLOBAL SCENARIO
Closure of sodium chlorate plant by Tronox in USA
The North American market is expected to shift from balanced to tight next year, following the
closure of Tronox’s 150,000 metric tonne per year sodium chlorate plant at Hamilton, MS, in late
November 2015.
The company announced the closure, citing unfavourable market conditions.
While [Tronox’s] plant was not running at high rates, its closure will remove a notable portion of
sodium chlorate from the North American market. The [North American] sodium chlorate market
is likely to remain balanced in 2015 and as a result of the closure, begin tightening in 2016.
Scenrio in Europe
With two new, major softwood kraft pulp bleached pulp mills coming onstream in Finland by 2019,
sodium chlorate demand in northern Europe is anticipated to increase.
Pulp producers in northern Europe depend on two sodium chlorate producers in that region, and
bleached pulp producers could seek to widen their supply sources.
The new projects are expected to result in European sodium chlorate demand growing by at least
70,000 metric tonne per year, depending on the technology deployed at the projects.
Sodium chlorate capacity in Europe is currently about 695,000 metric tonne. while consumption is
estimated at 546,000 metric tonne per year.
Scenario in Brazil
Klabin, the biggest paper producer, exporter and recycler in Brazil has selected Finnish speciality
chemicals firm, Kemira, to supply sodium chlorate to Klabin’s new 1.5 million metric tonne pulp mill
in Paraná, Brazil.
The new pulp mill in Brazil is the largest investment in Klabin’s history and will double the company’s
production capacities.
Kemira will build, own and operate a sodium chlorate plant. The new plant is scheduled to begin
production during the first half of 2016.

Sodium chlorate facility in Kerala
Kochi based Kerala government owned firm, Travancore-Cochin Chemicals Ltd. (TCC), has
commissioned a five tonne per day sodium chlorate plant at Udyogamandal near Kochi. Constructed
at a cost of Rs. 23 crore, the sodium chlorate produced from the plant will be fully absorbed by
Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre’s (VSSC’s) ammonium perchlorate experimental plant at Aluva.
Ammonium perchlorate is to be used in fuel propulsion system of rockets to be deployed by VSSC.
The project is a joint venture with VSSC, which contributed the funds for setting up the plant.
TCC will also be getting an additional amount for the manufacturing operations.
Sodium chlorate is one of the essential raw materials for production of ammonium perchlorate,
which constitutes a major portion of solid propellant used in rockets to be deployed by Indian Space
Research Organisation (ISRO). ISRO’s entire ammonium perchlorate requirements are met through
its ammonium perchlorate experimental plant located at Aluva, which is functioning under VSCC,
Thiruvananthapuram. The new plant at TCC will ensure 100 per cent self reliance in the technology
and production of this critical raw material. The 5 metric tonne per day of sodium chlorate
produced at TCC will be sufficient for operations of ISRO in the next five to seven years.

BUTYL ACETATE – INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY
Alternate name n-Butyl acetate
Acetic acid butyl ester
Butyl ethanoate
CAS Number 123-86-4
Chemical formula C6H12O2
Appearance Clear, moderately volatile liquid
Odour Characteristic ester odour
Product application
Butyl acetate is an important solvent used in the following sector:
* Coating, paint, varnish, printing ink, adhesive
* Perchlorovinyl , polyacryl and other lacquers
* Nitro, ethyl and acetyl cellulose
* Chlorinated rubber
* Natural and synthetic resins
* Polymers
* Vegetable oils and fats.
Paints and coatings
Butyl acetate is often employed in combination with n butanol in paints, because n-butanol enhances
the resistance to blushing and increases the solvency in many cases. n-Butanol can not be used in
paint systems that have to be free of hydroxyl groups such as isocyanate paints.
Its moderate volatility and its resistance to blushing and leveling problems such as orange peel effects
make it possible for paints with good leveling and gloss to be formulated.
Pharmaceutical
Because of its low water absorption, its high resistance to hydrolysis and its high solvency,
butyl acetate can be employed as an extractant in the manufacture of pharmaceutical preparations
and as an ingredient of cleaners, essences and fragrances
Fragrance and flavours
Butyl acetate is used as an agent for extraction of natural flavorings; in fruit essences and perfumes.
Cosmetics
Butyl acetate is used as an essential solvent in formulation of nail polish.

Global scenario
Global production/demand
Global production/demand for butyl acetate : 1.4 million metric tonne per annum.
Growth rate in demand
Worldwide demand for butyl acetate is projected to grow at 2.5% to 3% per annum in the
coming years.
Global outlook
The growth in demand for butyl acetate have largely come due to the substitution of methyl isobutyl
ketone (MIBK) by butyl acetate and its blends.
In addition, in certain applications, butyl acetate is a substitute for xylene and toluene, which are
aromatic hydrocarbons and VOC emission compounds.
The oxygenated solvents are one strong segment of the business as opposed to hydrocarbon
solvents. Of all the oxygenated solvents, butyl acetate is solvent of choice for a variety of
formulators replacing hydrocarbon solvents and other solvent systems.
Demand is high for butyl acetate in Asia, where the demand is growing at 8.5% per year.
The global supply scenario for butyl acetate is balanced because of healthy demand for coatings,
which is the major end use for the product.

Moisture resistant breathable foams
PVDF is commonly used as insulation on electrical wires, because of its combination of flexibility,
low weight, low thermal conductivity, high chemical corrosion resistance, and heat resistance.
PVDF is valued for its toughness, stability, and distinct engineering advantages. For example,
polymer is needed that withstand exposure to harsh thermal, chemical or ultraviolet conditions,
PVDF offers superior stability similar to the performance of fluoropolymers in these environments.
Applications are mainly in the petrochemical, electrical and electronic, and fluorocarbon coatings
fields. It is the best materials for pumps, valves, pipes, pipe fittings, tanks and heat exchangers in oil
or fluid handling system because of its chemical corrosion resistance, workability, fatigue resistance
and creep resistance properties.
PVDF can be used in repeated contact with food products. Its surface, like glass, is unfavourable for
the proliferation of microorganisms.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Production process of PVDF is divided into the polymerization part and the post processing part.
Vinylidene fluoride (VDF)
Several methods for vinylidene fluoride production are based on pyrolysis, including the
dechlorination of 1,2-dichloro-1, 1-difluoroethane in the presence of a nickel catalyst and the
dehydrofluorination of 1,1,1-trifluoroethane.
Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF)
Vinylidene Fluoride (VDF) can be polymerized by a variety of free radical initiators, but the
preparation of a commercially useful product requires the correct choice of initiator, dispersing
agent and reaction medium.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 39
POLYVINYLIDENE FLUORIDE – PRODUCT PROFIILE
Vinylidene fluoride can also be polymerized in aqueous emulsion at 80 deg.C and 5.2 MPa, using

Arkema
Arkema is the global leader in the production of PVDF fluoropolymer and has plants in North
America, Europe, and Asia.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 40
POLYVINYLIDENE FLUORIDE – PRODUCT PROFIILE
It has production chain around the Pierre-Bénite site in France as well as the Saint-Auban, France
site, which produces the monomer for some fluoro gases. Arkema also operates fluorochemical
facilities at Zaramillo, Spain; Changshu, China; and Calvert City, KY.
Arkema has abandoned a €70-million ($90.5 million) project to increase capacity for the company’s
Kynar polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) fluoropolymer at Pierre-Bénite near Lyon, France, following
opposition from members of the site’s workforce to a reorganization that would have accompanied
the plans.
The project, which began development, would have raised PVDF capacity at Pierre-Bénite by 50% by
2014 and modernized the site.
The investment would also have enabled Arkema to increase production at Saint-Auban, France, for
1,1,1-trichloroethane, a monomer used to produce PVDF. The Pierre-Bénite and Saint-Auban sites
have been losing money for a number of years, despite several restructuring programmes and
Arkema says that the expansion project was designed to restore the sites to profitability and
guarantee their future.
Arkema operates 4,000 metric tonne per year Kynar polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) plant facility at
Changshu, China and it held a groundbreaking ceremony for a €10-million R&D center at the site.
That facility is the company’s 10th R&D center worldwide.
Arkema makes powder PVDF, a product that is suitable for use in coatings and lithium-ion batteries,
at Changshu, China. Higher end uses including photovoltaic applications require pelletized PVDF,
which Arkema does not manufacture at Changshu.The company supplies Kynar PVDF to Wanxiang
EV Co. (Hangzhou, China), a car component maker and China’s largest producer of li-ion batteries
for electric vehicles.
Arkema has brought on stream a 50% increase in fluorinated polymer production capacity at its
Changshu, China site. The new line is dedicated to the production of the company’s Kynar-brand
polyvinyledene fluoride (PVDF) and VF2 (vinylidene fluoride) monomer.
Arkema has developed a new process that eliminates fluoro surfactants from its PVDF
(polyvinylidene fluoride).Arkema is introducing its PVDF resin made using a new fluorosurfactant-
free (FSF) process.
The new foaming technology produces Kynar PVDF foam without chemical or physical blowing
agents. The technology is claimed to make the foam more cost effective and environmentally
acceptable than alternatives.
Separately, Arkema has developed, through Kynar Aquatec, the first water based fluoropolymer
resin that offers the durability and performance of traditional Kynar PVDF coatings, while drying at
ambient temperature. The product is particularly suitable for use in the manufacture of white roofs
that reflect light, reducing air conditioning costs and saving energy.
Solvay Solexis
Solvay Solexis is a fully owned subsidiary of the Solvay group
Solvay Solexis manufactures PVDF for both melt processing and coatings applications.

Indian supply scenario
At present, Vinylidene fluoride/Polyvinylidene Fluoride resin is not produced in India.
Indian demand scenario
A number of Indian organisations who need to use PVDF in pumps, membranes, electronic parts
either import the PVDF product itself or import PVDF sheet/powder for the production of PVDF
product.
PVDF sheets and rolls are imported in various thickness and sizes depending upon the requirement
of individual organizations.
A few organisations import PVDF resin and use it for coating purposes PVDF resin are imported in
the form of powder and granules
Use of PVDF membrane is very selective in India and Indian demand for PVDF is much less than
potential.

Ammonia plant in Texas
Yara International (Oslo) and BASF broke ground 27 July on their planned world scale ammonia
plant at BASF’s Freeport, TX, USA.
The hydrogen based process that will be used in the plant significantly reduces capital expenditure
and maintenance compared with a traditional natural gas–based ammonia plant.
As part of the project, Yara will build an ammonia tank site’s terminal facility and BASF will upgrade
its terminal and pipeline infrastructure for exporting ammonia from the plant. The total capital
expenditure for the project is estimated to be $600 million.
The plant will be owned 68% by Yara and 32% by BASF and will have a capacity of about
750,000 metric tonne per year of ammonia. Each party will offtake ammonia from the plant in
accordance with its equity share.
BASF will use its share of ammonia from the plant to produce caprolactam, used to manufacture
nylons, while Yara will market the remainder mostly to industrial customers in North America in
addition to supplying the agricultural sector.
A 20 year supply agreement for nitrogen and hydrogen has been signed with Praxair.
Under the supply agreement, Praxair will supply about 170 million standard cubic feet per day of
hydrogen and 2,000 metric tonne per day of nitrogen to the ammonia plant. Praxair is investing
more than $400 million to add hydrogen and nitrogen production capacity and is extending its Gulf
Coast pipeline systems about 46 miles from Texas City to the Freeport area.
The turnkey contract for the engineering, procurement, and construction has been awarded to
KBR (Houston). Yara will manage plant construction, and BASF will operate the plant.
The construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2017.

Debt in Brazil’s sugar industry is 82.5 billion reais, more than the 69.7-billion reais revenue
expected for the 2015-16 season, Archer Consulting said in report.
Drought and frost, a cap on domestic ethanol prices, lower global sugar prices and the

INDIAN SPONGE IRON SCENARIO
India’s sponge iron industry is the world’s largest, with around 48 million metric tonne
installed production capacity.
These units, mostly located in the tribal districts of Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Karnataka and
Jharkhand, buy iron ore from the open market.
There are some 300 such units of varied size, ranging from 0.2 million metric tonne per
annum to one million metric tonne per annum and they use mostly low grade iron ore and
domestically available coal. The units cater mostly to secondary steelmakers which
contribute 56% of domestic steel production.
Sponge iron plants use both iron ore lumps and fines that also help sustainable development
of mines. Around 30% of the total sponge iron produced in India is manufactured, utilising
iron ore fines.
At full capacity, the industry would need around 92 million metric tonne of iron ore a year.
Captive mines would help the industry to hedge from the vagaries of price fluctuations and
secure supply.
Tata Sponge Iron said that the country’s target of making 300 million metric tonne per
annum steel by 2025 can only be met, if the secondary steelmaking route expands
significantly.
“The expansion of the secondary steel making route will necessitate efficient and
environment friendly sponge iron units to operate cost effectively, thus requiring the
captive raw material source for such sponge iron ore units.
Sponge iron units were considered a separate class in the allocation of captive coal blocks
earlier and the said separate identity has also been retained in the recent coal auction.
Sponge iron producers, which source their key input — iron ore — from the open market,
have urged the mines ministry to advise states to allow them to bid for captive iron ore
mines in the forthcoming auction of mineral leases.
Currently, under the Mineral (Auction) Rules, 2015, only integrated steelmakers are
allowed to bid for captive ion ore mines.

Illegal pesticides usage in India – Findings of the study
The use of sub standard and spurious pesticides could lead to a loss of 10.6 million metric tonne of
food produce this year in India, according to a study by industry chamber FICCI conducted in
association with the Tata Strategic Management Group.
Titled ‘Study on Sub standard, Spurious/Counterfeit Pesticides in India’, the report estimates the
proportion of counterfeit pesticides as high as 40 per cent by 2019.
The use of such pesticides is growing at about 20 per cent every year with Uttar Pradesh, Madhya
Pradesh, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Haryana and West Bengal being the
worst affected States.
Illegal pesticides can lower yields by 4 percent, the study says, and render soil degraded for
cultivation of succeeding crops in the cultivation cycle. Ground and surface water is also
contaminated due to heavy metals and toxic chemicals present in such products.
“Only 25 to 30 percent of farmers are aware of the use of pesticides and don’t exactly know what
to spray in their fields…hence, most can’t make out the authenticity of the pesticides they are
buying,” the study says.
The Indian crop protection industry is estimated to be worth Rs.25,000 crore including exports, of
which between Rs.2,780 crore and Rs.3,475 crore is believed to comprise non genuine pesticides.

Global Vaccine Action Plan Basic vaccines are necessary in controlling bad diseases. The concern is about introducing vaccines
that may not be required in the local population.
There is no room for complacency on vaccination, since the global landscape holds multiple
challenges. As the Indian government increases the number of vaccines in the immunisation
programme, it is also focusing on strengthening cold chain and storage facilities to reduce adverse
events and the fear it triggers.
As the scientific community brainstorms on vaccines, its use and abuse, the Government has its task
cut out. It needs to ensure that parents get the right information on vaccines and support in case of
side effects. Else, even a baseless fear can topple a public health initiative and with damaging
consequences.
Global vaccine action plan- Targets For 2015
Description
Target by
Immunisation against diphtheria,
tetanus and whooping cough (DTP3)
Immunisation coverage against diphtheria, tetanus and whooping
cough by 2015 (in 65 countries)
Introduction of under utilised
vaccines
At least 90 low or middle income countries to have introduced one
or more under utilised vaccines by 2015
Rubella elimination Eliminate rubella from two WHO regions by end 2015
Measles elimination Eliminate measles from three WHO regions by end 2015.
16% of all children are not being immunised against measles
Polio eradication No new cases after 2014.
3 countries remain polio endemic
Maternal and neonatal tetanus; Elimination of maternal and neonatal tetanus.
Global elimination by end 2015 (in 24 countries)
*****
Studies on the usage of vaccines reveal that
two key features affect immunisation: the fear
of adverse events (or side-effects, in common
parlance) and the lack of awareness (when
and where to take the child for routine
immunisation).
A backlash against cervical cancer vaccines
had hit the headlines in India, following lapses
when the HPV vaccine was tested on young
girls in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat.
The best way to judge the need for vaccine is
by defining the public health goals of the
country and map it against the vaccines
introduced.

Issues facing solar power producers
Solar power producers have said the fees levied by the government on solar parks under various
heads has forced them to increase prices by at least 10 percent, at a time when the trend is towards
declining cost of clean energy.
The average cost of solar power generation is about Rs.5 per unit at present in these areas.
Charges for land lease and power evacuation are 30 to 35 percent higher than that outside the park.
Additionally, the government will be charging a security deposit, which can be as high as Rs 10 crore
depending on the capacity installed.
The security deposit will bear zero interest which will be returned after 25 years. "This component
has also been adding to the cost of generating power, apart from the one percent locality
development change..
Infrastructure — land and power evacuation facilities — for solar parks is being provided by states.
They will be receiving central grants of up to 50 percent of the cost of providing infrastructure or
Rs 20 lakh per megawatt of capacity installed, for developing infrastructure. Levies are proposed to
be charged despite the grants.
The cost of leasing land inside the park is turning out to be more expensive for companies than
buying land outright and creating their own evacuation infrastructure.

Offshore wind energy policy proposed by Government
The Government of India has approved the National Offshore Wind Energy policy, which would
provide the roadmap for development of such plants in the country.
The policy framework will provide a roadmap for mapping the off shore wind energy potential.
Based on this, the government will locate and identify the areas, which have the potential for
offshore wind energy. Government will get all approvals for these areas and offer it to developers by
way of bidding.
The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy will be the nodal Ministry for use of offshore areas
within the Exclusive Economic Zone of the country and the National Institute of Wind Energy will
be the nodal agency to allocate wind energy blocks to developers.
The fees levied by the government on the solar
parks announced in Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan,
Gujarat and Karnataka include that for
development, operation and maintenance, lease
rentals, solar power development, processing,
security deposits and additional taxes.
High charges for solar parks can make solar
power costlier by Rs 0.16 to 0.36 per unit.
According to estimates , power generation
cost at solar parks in Rajasthan will be higher by
16 paise per unit, while it will be 26 paise per
unit more in Andhra Pradesh and 36 paise per
unit higher in Gujarat.
Nandini Chemical Journal, October 2015 Page 56

According to the policy, the offshore wind energy plants can come up to seaward distance of
200 nautical miles of the country from the base line.
As per estimates, Gujarat has a potential of around 100,000 MW for off shore wind energy, while
Tamil Nadu has about 60,000 MW. As and when the scale of operations increase, the
competitiveness of off shore wind energy will also improve.

Proposed floating LNG terminals at Kakinada port
A floating LNG terminal reduces the cost of the project, as there is no need for long pipelines to
onshore terminal, compression platforms to push gas to the shore, near shore works such as
dredging and jetty construction and onshore development such as building roads, lay down areas and
accommodation facilities.
The second MoU is the trading company agreement between GAIL, GDF SUEZ and Shell and covers
both the sourcing of LNG and the marketing of the regasified LNG from the terminal.
The Kakinada LNG terminal will use the Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU) with a peak
capacity of 5 million metric tonne per annum (mtpa) with the provision to double the capacity. The
FSRU will be constructed with cost of Rs.1,800 crore initially.
The terminal will use high end technology and will be one of the first of its kind of PPP projects in
India. The Kakinada port is found suitable for a project of this nature, owing to its availability of a
natural break water in the Hope Island — a barrier that protects against the impact of high seas.
The first MoU supports the development/execution of the terminal. APGDC, GDF SUEZ and Shell
will have 48%, 26% and 26% equity in the project, respectively.
In the second MoU, GAIL, GDF SUEZ and Shell will have 48%, 26% and 26% equity in the project.
India is the world’s fourth largest LNG importer , following Japan, South Korea and China, and
consumed almost 6% of the global market.
Currently, India gas consumption hovers around 100 to 110 million metric standard cubic metre per
day (mmscmd). Of this, about 30 to 35% is sourced through R-LNG.
LNG demand in India is expected to rise by 5% every year over the next couple of decades, while
global gas demand will be growing at 2% per year till 2030. The LNG market is expected to be
driven by the growing demands from China, Middle East and Europe – but also by new markets such
as India, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thialand and Vietnam.
Andhra Pradesh has signed two
separate memoranda of
understanding (MoUs) for setting
up a floating LNG terminal at the
Kakinada deep water port.
The first MoU is a terminal
company agreement between
Andhra Pradesh Gas Distribution
Corporation (APGDC) — a JV
between AP government and
GAIL, GDF SUEZ and Shell.

PRICE DETAILS
NATURAL GAS PRICE FOR UREA AND LPG UNITS
Government Of India has decided to extend the policy of capping marketing margins for natural gas
supplied to urea and LPG units to all firms in the business.
Currently, marketing margin of state run GAIL is fixed by the government, whereas the private
sector Reliance Gas Transportation Infrastructure (RGTIL), has the freedom to determine the
margin.
The petroleum ministry’s move, based on Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB)
recommendations, could have implications for RGTIL which operates the East-West Pipeline
(EWPL) between Kakinada in Andhra Pradesh and Bharuch in Gujarat, but since the current volume
of gas taken through the 1,375-km pipeline is very low, the immediate impact would be marginal.
Had the production from Reliance Industries’ KG-D6 block been 69 million metric standard cubic
metres per day (mmscmd), the peak level achieved once, the annual reduction in marketing margin
for RGTIL due to the decision would have been Rs.500 to 800 crore. EWPL has capacity to carry
80 mmscmd of gas.
According to sources, the petroleum ministry would soon seek the approval of the Cabinet
Committee on Economic Affairs to fix the marketing margin for natural gas at Rs.200 per thousand
standard cubic metres for all players. This would mean GAIL and RGTIL cannot charge more than
8 to 10 cent per million British thermal unit (mBtu) from urea and LPG plants as marketing margin.
This is much lower than 13.5 cent per mBtu levied by RGTL at present. GAIL’s current marketing
charges hover around 8 to10 cents.
******
NATURAL GAS PRICE SLASHED BY 16%
Government of India has announced a price reduction of almost 16 per cent on net.
Government of India notification said that the revised price will be $3.82 per million
British thermal unit (mBtu) on a gross calorific value basis (or $4.24 a unit on net) from
October 2015 to March 2016 (value of the gas is measured based on its heat).
This is slightly lower than what it was during the government controlled (administered
price mechanism) regime at $4.66 a unit. This is the third revision, since the gas price was
deregulated in November 2014.
If the benefit is passed onto
consumers, it would result in cheaper
electricity bills as well as lower rates
for piped cooking gas and compressed
natural gas (used for transportation).
Every dollar change in gas price
impacts the CNG price by about Rs.3
per kg, piped natural gas rates by
around Rs.2 per standard cubic metre
and the electricity tariff by 45 to 50
paise a unit

PRICE DETAILS
Spot LNG prices continue to slide, drop 48% year on year
The price of Asian spot liquified natural gas (LNG) cargoes for November delivery fell to about
$6.7/mmBtu in the week ended October 2.
This is nearly 48% lower than the level a year ago. The week before the price was hovering at
$6.8 per mmBtu.
Meanwhile, India has been taking the minimum possible quantity on its long term contracts, buying
instead on the spot market to take advantage of falling prices.
The Centre has proposed to procure around 14 mmscmd of LNG to feed the gas based plants
under the new subsidy scheme.
India is the world’s fourth largest LNG importer, following Japan, South Korea and China and
consumed almost 6% of the global market.
