PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The Project comprises of a 150,000 MTPA Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) manufacturing plantand a 360,000 Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB) plant, 16 mounded bullets for storage ofgases with a 18 MW captive gas based power plant at Dighi Port, Maharashtra. The briefdescription of Project is given below:

POLY VINYL CHLORIDE PLANTVPPL proposes to buy a PVC plant form Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas) in Malaysia.This plant is capable of producing suspension grade PVC (grades K57, K67 and K70). Themanufacture of suspension grade PVC is envisaged through vinyl chloride monomer (VCM)route, where VCM is polymerized to produce the PVC slurry using agitators and additives.The license for the plant shall be provided by Ineos Technologies, UK., the world’s largestPVC technology provider having long standing experience in the related field.

Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) is the most versatile thermoplastic forming on one extreme,highly rigid products such as pipes and profiles and on the other, highly flexible productssuch as soft leather cloth & flexible footwear. The basic structure of this polymer is

Page 21: PROPOSED POLYVINYL CHLORIDE PLANT, POLYMER PLANT …environmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/Online/... · plant within dighi port limit at village dighi taluka shrivardhan, district

(C2H3Cl)n. The degree of polymerization varies from 300 to 1500. The chlorine content inPVC is about 57% by weight which makes it less dependent on hydrocarbon content.

Review of Process TechnologyThere are mainly four polymerization routes for the manufacture of PVC. They are asfollows :

Process Route % of World ProductionSuspension Polymerization 80Emulsion Polymerization 10Bulk or Mass Polymerization 8-10

It can be seen from above that suspension polymerization is the most prevalent technology inthe world today. The leading licensors for this technology are Ineos Technologies (UK) andOxy Vinyl Corporation (US) In this process Vinyl Chloride Monomer (VCM) droplets aredispersed in water medium aided with suspending agents and agitation in the Reactors/polymerizers. Polymerization of VCM to PVC takes place in this medium initiated byperoxide catalyst. Multiple batch reactors discharge into a continuous polymer separation andfinishing line. The polymer slurry from the reactors is first separated from unconverted VCMby degassing and steam stripping. Water is separated from the polymer by means ofcentrifuging followed by drying.

PVC produced through the Emulsion polymerization process is mainly used as latex or pastein specialty applications. In Europe manufacture of PVC started with the emulsion process.The process is similar to the suspension process except that large amounts of emulsifyingagents are used which result in very fine PVC particles. Consequently, separation of thesefine PVC particles from water cannot be done by centrifuging action. Hence this technologyemploys spray dryers to separate water from the fine PVC particles.

Production capacityPlant capable of manufacturing K-57, K-66,K-70 grades of suspension PVC. Low K valueand High K Value grades also can be produced. The plant is capable to produce the full rangeof PVC grades for fulfilling most market requirements. 150,000 MTPA expandable to200,000 MTPA within the same infrastructure without any further expansions. The plant atpresent is assumed to be working for 300 days in a year of suspension grade PVC.

Raw materialsSr. no. Raw Material Quantity

1. Vinyl Chloride Monomer 15,000 m³

2. Water (De-Mineralized) 25,000 m³

3. Suspending Agent (Poly Vinyl Alcohol) 50 MT

4. Initiator (Peroxy Compound) 30 MT

5. Alpha Methyl Styrene 40 MT

Unloading, storage & Feeding system for VCMVCM is a colourless liquid with a characteristic sweet odour.

2. POLYMER MODIFIED BITUMEN (PMB) PLANT

Bitumen, one of the commercial products of petrochemical refinery, is primarily used in roadconstruction, the tar roads to be specific. PMB is a specific type of bitumen which has highertensile strength than normal bitumen. Locally, PSU’s such as IOCL, BPCL, and HPCLproduce VG30 grade of bitumen. The manufacturing process of PMB entails heating normalbitumen (VG30 grade bitumen) with styrene butadiene styrene (SBS) or ethyl vinyl acetate(EVA) at about 180 Deg C in large Blenders. SBS or EVA is thermoplastic additive whichbinds with the bitumen when heated at high temperatures to produce PMB.
