TALK OF THE MONTH

PRIME MINISTER’s STARTUP INDIA – AN ACT OF FAITH

It would be appropriate to highlight that one has to keep the fingers crossed about the feasibility of

adequate success of startup India campaign, particularly considering the fact that several of other pet

themes of Mr. Narendra Modi such as Clean India campaign, Make in India announced with similar

fanfare and hope, have not yet achieved the big breakthrough expected of them, for whatever reasons.

Need for innovation

Prime Minister has well emphasised the need for innovation, showing his clear understanding that India

today is almost entirely dependent on import of technologies in various fields to sustain its industrial

growth.

In the educational institutions in India, there is little place for knowledge for the sake of knowledge, but

knowledge acquisition is centered over getting success in the examination.

To improve the research climate in India, the fundamental transformation in the mindset towards

research have to be achieved, which appears to be still a far cry. The startup India campaign in the

absence of basic research strength may end up as more service oriented entrepreneurial schemes rather

than manufacturing setups.

Role of financing l institutions

It is yet to be seen how Prime Minister would be able to motivate the financing institutions to help the

startup entrepreneurs, with complete understanding.

Certainly, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has caught the imagination of the youth of India by

launching the Startup India movement with impressive oratory.

A number of imaginative steps and meaningful concessions have been announced, which obviously

indicate the good understanding of ground realities.

However, given the complexities of the Indian scenario and several constraints faced by investors,

one can only conclude that Mr. Narendra Modi has moved with an element of faith that youth

would rise up to the occasion and accept the challenges with enthusiasm and determination.

The truth is that there is nothing big to write about

achievements in the Indian R&D front, inspite of several

thousand crores of rupees spent by Govt of India in

operating the government owned CSIR labs.

The contribution of private sector to Indian R&D efforts is

even more dismal than the CSIR labs. The much hope that

industry academic interaction will make innovative research

take off has also not been realised, as most of the

universities and educational institutions in India largely

operate as degree/diploma conferring centers, after

imparting ready made lessons to the students

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 4

PRIME MINISTER’s STARTUP INDIA – AN ACT OF FAITH

.

Two nearly similar compaigns

It is slightly disappointing that while talking of his startup India campaign, Prime Minister has not

adequately linked startup India campaign with make in India campaign. It would have been more

appropriate, if both the programmes have been clubbed and launched together.

It is necessary to be cautious that make in India programme and startup India scheme should not

be operated in isolation. There have to be an elegant situation where one complements the other and

the governments lead in the choice of direction should be deemed very important.

Need for holistic approach

The government‘s task does not end merely by announcing concessional schemes and it has to go much

beyond.

While Mr. Narendra Modi should be congratulated for his approach and understanding of the need, the

importance of holistic approach should also need to be kept in mind.

Need for mentor support

There is also need to provide mentor

support to startup entrepreneurs and

emphasis could have been laid on larger

industries and organisations providing

support to startup entrepreneurs by

adopting their units as ancillary setups or

custom manufacturers or contract suppliers

to the extent possible.

Need for clear cut direction

Overall, one cannot but miss the fact that

there is lack of clear cut direction on the

part of government of India to the industries

and entrepreneurs about the appropriate

areas into which the Indian investors should

remain focussed.

Government is yet to clarify that its policies

and programmes would be in tune with

encouraging specific industrial sector that

are appropriate to national need, instead of

leaving it entirely to startup entrepreneur to

choose the area of operation which may

prove to be inappropriate later on.

It is necessary that the areas of investment

should be supported by the pro active

policies of the government.

SUSTAINED GROWTH OF CHINESE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY

IS IN THE WORLD‘S INTEREST

Swaminathan Venkataraman,Director,Nandini Consultancy (S) Pte Ltd, Singapore [email protected]

China is now rebalancing its economy, shifting to more sustainable growth. China‘s transition to a ‗new

normal‘ rate of growth may be bumpy as it takes corrective action. However, the rest of the world,

especially people who play the market for a living, seem to look shell shocked.

World chemical industry appears to think that everything ultimately has to do with China.

Improved global ranking

The ground reality is that a few decades back, the status and position of Chinese chemical industry in

the world was not ranked high. Therefore, great efforts and initiatives were taken by Government of

China and chemical industries in China to reach high levels of growth, so as to improve the ranking of

the Chinese chemical industry in the global context. This objective has now been convincingly and

largely met by the chemical industry in China.

Today, China is not only a producer of large number of chemical and allied products in different sectors

(based on conventional and recently developed technologies, producing eco friendly products, bio tech

products etc. at globally competitive scale and specifications) but also a large consumer of various

chemicals and allied products.

Rapidly increasing consumption of chemicals and allied products in China is only due to the rapid buildup

of production capacity of chemicals and other industry in China in diversified sector including petro

chemicals, agro chemicals, pharmaceuticals, metallurgy, textiles and dyes etc.

In recent times, there have been much speculation and media discussions about the slow down of

Chinese industry and particularly Chinese chemical industry.

Careful analysis of the facts and figures would readily indicate the fact that the growth trends of

Chinese chemical industry are still maintained at an impressive level relative to rest of the world,

though the rate of growth in comparison to the growth profile in recent years has slowed down.

Chinese economy is now the world‘s second largest and is growing at nearly 7 percent a year —

down from 10.6 percent in 2010 and it is still growing at healthy pace.

Slower growth not a matter of concern

The present slower growth of Chinese chemical industry in

comparison to the past trend is not really alarming, since the

Chinese industry and economy have grown at very feverish pitch in

the last few decades and it is unreasonable to expect that such

growth pitch can be maintained for all time to come. No economy

can go on growing at around 10%-odd rates for decades; China

managed to do so for nearly 30 years.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 6

SUSTAINED GROWTH OF CHINESE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY IS IN THE WORLD’S INTEREST

Gainful entry of multinational companies

Impressed by the growth in demand and consumption of chemical products in China and given the fact

that the market in the developed region in Western Europe, Japan and Northern America have virtually

become matured and stagnant, multinational companies utilized the opportunity and entered China in a

big way to build large capacity in the country.

Multinational companies readily entered into China with massive investment and introduced updated

technologies in China, as they really have no other alternative way to sustain their growth.

Certainly, Government of China and chemical industry in China have adopted proactive policies and

approach to facilitate the successful and mutually advantageous entry of multinational companies and

chemical industry from other regions into China.

In the process, the Chinese economy, Chinese chemical industry and the overseas organizations have

gained and it is now seen as an elegant exercise of technical, financial and management cooperation on

global scale. It is a win win situation for everyone involved.

Impact on other economies

The scale and span of China‘s trade gives it huge influence over the global economy. How China deals

with its problems have far reaching implications because the country has become such a big part of the

world economy. Slow down in China inevitably impacts commodity prices all over the world, as China

has emerged as the biggest consumer of many commodities including basic metals.

China is one of the biggest consumers of commodities like oil, soybeans and iron ore and when demand

in China slows, economies in Brazil, Saudi Arabia and South Africa suffer. Even industrialized countries

like Germany, Japan and the United States are vulnerable, though less so than commodity exporters,

because they sell manufactured goods to China.

Of course, China has been accounting for around one third of global growth in the last year or two and

it will be the same this year.

While the slowdown in China continue to be a subject of debate around the world, stabilized growth

will provide greater strength and stronger fundamentals to China sooner than later.

World has to reposition itself

Now, as the growth rate of Chinese chemical industry inevitably is

slowing down, and the Chinese economy and the Chinese chemical

industry are moving ahead at a more stable growth path, the world

economy and the world chemical industry have to necessarily re

position themselves and this is precisely what is happening now.

Dispassionate analysis of the recent performance Chinese chemical

industry would highlight the fact that the basics and fundamentals

remain strong and there is no need for panic reaction.

COMMENTARY ON PARIS CLIMATE CONFERENCE

Nandini Consultancy Centre (www.nandinichemical.com), a renowned chemical engineering and

chemical business consultancy organisation based at Chennai and Singapore, has just released a

commentary on Paris Climate Conference under the title

― Tall targets and uncertain strategies of the Paris climate conference

and India‘s ambitious targets‖

Various aspects discussed in the study include the following :

* Past and present climate scenario and its impact

* Grave future scenario, if climate change remains unmanaged

* Various challenges in tackling climate change issues

* Details on past climate agreements in the world forums

* Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) of several countries for climate

management

* Key positives and shortfalls of targets and strategies proposed in the COP21 conference

* Critical examination of India‘s ambitious promises and the feasibility of fulfilling them

* Need for appropriate strategies by India to meet the twin objectives of meeting the emission

mitigation target and tackling impending energy crisis

* Where would the world go from here?

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Swaminathan Venkataraman, Chemical Engineer & MBA (Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad,

India) with around twenty years of standing experience in Europe and Singapore, in functions related to

Chemical Business Management and Environmental issues.

He is now Director, Nandini Consultancy (S) Pte. Ltd., Singapore.

The commentary, that consist of 214 slides with

figures, tables and analysis, discusses about the

complex issues involved in global climate

management and critically reviews the targets

and strategies arrived at Paris climate conference

(COP21).

The promises made by India with regard to

climate management has been discussed in detail,

particularly with regard to impediments on the

way and the feasibility of attaining the target.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 8

.COMMENTARY ON PARIS CLIMATE CONFERENCE

Aggregate pledges to reduce greenhouse gas emissions made by the nation states of the world fail far

short of what is needed to begin to address the looming catastrophic climate change.

Interest and responsibilities of the participating countries diverge widely, ranging from the post industrial

economies of the global north to industrializing nations such as China and India to the most vulnerable

nations already facing climate change disruptions such as Kiribati, Tuvalu and Vanuatu.

US$ 100 bn funding has been promised by developed countries to help the developing countries to

achieve the target for climate management. However, there is no binding agreement to do so and it is

viewed as voluntary offer.

Agreement fails to acknowledge the need to decarbonize the world economy, by not mentioning fossil

fuels such as crude oil, coal in the agreement.

The agreement sets a floor on conduct of countries but not the ceiling on what people in the

world have a right to demand from the governments of the world.

Targets fixed during the conference remain voluntary and the required actions are unspecified and

appear daunting.

The decision to conduct review of a 1.5 deg C warming limit by 2018 may come too late, as the world is

well on the way to 1.5 deg C with present greenhouse gas levels. It now appears that staying below

2 deg C warming is in itself a formidable task.

Paris deal may be the best deal that could have been struck given the limits of the political economic

environment, but that does not mean that it has done what is necessary to protect the life support

systems of the actual environment.

Economic risk

Economic impact of large scale reduction of reliance on fossil fuels is untested and not clear and have

been conspicuous by lack of detailed discussions during the conference.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE COMMENTARY

ON PARIS CLIMATE CONFERENCE

After the initial excitement and euphoria over the draft agreement

on climate issues arrived at the Paris climate conference, careful

study of the proceedings, deliberations and agreements arrived at

the conference, cannot but make one suspect that the conference

may have ended as a talk show, with several uncertainties and

conflicts of interests remaining unresolved.

Paris climate summit acknowledges the need to aggressively

address climate change, but it fails to detail with clarity as to how

that will be done.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 9

COMMENTARY ON PARIS CLIMATE CONFERENCE

Political risks – Political direction of China?

Will China stick true to its commitment if it faces a large economic downturn as is forecast by leading

economists, as it is shifting from a manufacturing/investment led to consumption led economy ?

Will the talk lead to results ?

Real work on decisions made during COP21, has to begin now and in earnest globally by all major

countries. Agreements in principle needs to be translated into action by individual member countries.

Developed nations need to determine their projected peak emissions level plan with urgency.

This requires more specific and aggressive policies in a massive expansion of clean energy investment

and industry needs to plan to shift away from fossil fuels.

While developing nations are allowed more flexibility due to rising population and pollution levels due to

economic growth, they need to make a careful assessment of total cost of polluting with fossil fuels and

the cleanup thereafter and hence decide their fossil fuel based energy profile carefully.

The first revisiting of 2025 and 2030 goals will come in 2018, with another stock taking review in 2023.

Going by current trends in global warming, the earth would have become warmer in 2018 by 0.1deg.C

compared to 2015 levels, moving closer to the target of 1.5 deg C warming levels. There is little time

to act.

India‘s ambitious promises

India has promised to build total renewable capacity of 175 GW by 2022 and create an additional

carbon sink of 2.5 to 3 billion metric tonne of CO2 equivalent through additional forest and tree cover

by 2030.

Political risks – Political direction of USA?

Currently, in USA all the leading Republican

candidates for 2016 Presidential election oppose

significant policy measures to mitigate climate

change and most have distanced themselves from

mainstream scientific views.

A new skeptical Republican President may abandon

Obama Administration‘s current climate change

commitments, including its emissions reductions

target for 2025 and, in effect may withdraw

support for the Paris Agreement. He may

undermine Environmental Protection Agency‘s

efforts via the Clean Air Act to curb emissions

from power stations. If Republicans retain clear

majorities in the House and Senate after 2016,

additional legislative and fiscal initiatives to thwart

mitigation efforts are highly probable

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 10

COMMENTARY ON PARIS CLIMATE CONFERENCE

Considering the past track record with regard to capacity build up, land acquisition issues, technology

challenges and the fact that several measures to achieve the target are still in the planning stage in the

beginning of the year 2016, it appears that it would be a herculean task for India to reach the promised

target by 2022.

WAY TO SOLVE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE ISSUE IN TAMIL NADU

The verdict of Supreme Court providing green signal to Gas Authority of India Ltd. (GAIL) to lay down

natural gas pipeline from Kochi to Tamil Nadu, cutting across 7 districts in Tamil Nadu, will go a long

way in boosting industrial and economic growth in Tamil Nadu.

GAIL‘s efforts so far

GAIL has been entrusted with the responsibility to lay pipeline , with 510 km in Kerala, 310 km in

Tamil Nadu and 60 km in Karnataka. However, GAIL has so far laid only 45 km of pipeline in Kerala.

It is reported that GAIL has already spent around Rs.685 crore for laying pipeline including for pipe

procurement. In view of the huge delay in laying pipeline in Tamil Nadu, GAIL is reported to have taken

steps to cancel the pipeline contract that has been already given for laying pipeline in Tamil Nadu.

What benefits for Tamil Nadu ?

The completion of the pipeline project will pave way for investment of around Rs.15000 crore in

Tamil Nadu by way of utilizing natural gas to set up power projects, petrochemical units, fertilizer units

and host of ancillary industries.

Such projects can change the face of several districts in Tamil Nadu such as Salem, Dharmapuri,

Krishnagiri, which are now industrially backward.

Concern of the farmers

On several occasions, the farmers have clarified that they are not against the pipeline project and are

aware of the benefits that would happen to Tamil Nadu due to availability of natural gas.

Their primary objection is with regard to the extent of compensation and how their long term interest

would be protected. Their grievance is that the compensation offered to them by GAIL is inadequate

and they even suspect that the GAIL authorities are insensitive and some farmers think that they are

even arrogant.

Kochi LNG project on the verge of becoming sick

Kochi LNG project in Kerala has been completed with

the capacity of 5 million tonne at the cost of over

Rs.4000 crore after protracted delay. Unfortunately,

the facilities are now used at less than 10% capacity

utilization level due to lack of pipeline for evacuation

of the imported gas to the consuming centres. As a

result , this massive project is now becoming sick .

Any closure of this facility for LNG would be a costly

loss for Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, which are

beneficiary states. Such grim scenario should be

avoided

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 13

WAY TO SOLVE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE ISSUE IN TAMIL NADU

In desperation, the farmers suggested that the pipeline could be laid on National Highway that would

prevent the need for acquisition of agricultural land from vulnerable farmers . GAIL says that it is not

technically possible due to several reasons but it has failed to explain the details to the farmers

Mistakes made by GAIL

GAIL authorities have carried out discussion with farmers, without making special and earnest efforts to

create confidence amongst the farmers. Unfortunately, GAIL has given an impression that it has not

been adequately appreciative of the farmer‘s genuine concerns and apprehensions.

GAIL has shown astonishingly low level of understanding in negotiating on compensation with farmers

who are scared that their life would be totally uprooted by the acquisition of land. The incapability of

GAIL to think out of box is glaring and conspicuous

Obviously, the discussion team from GAIL have been so unimaginative that they did not even care to

involve credible persons in the local regions, who have better understanding of ground realities and who

can communicate with the farmers in a cordial atmosphere and represent their views to GAIL.

The lack of credible mediators have been the biggest hurdle .

Finally, GAIL gave an impression of being totally insensitive towards the need of the farmers by taking

the issue to the court and creating confrontation.

Stand of Tamil Nadu Government

It is surprising that inspite of the vast benefits that the gas pipeline project would confer on Tamil Nadu ,

Tamil Nadu government adopted an approach, which some people think is bordering on indifference.

Obviously, Tamil Nadu Government should know the problems of the farmers much better than GAIL

and it should have convened a tri party meeting , consisting of representatives from Tamil Nadu

government, GAIL and farming community to discuss the matter and arrive at mutually acceptable

solution.

There is no issue that can not be solved by adopting an attitude of understanding, goodwill and

pragmatic approach. It is not clear why Tamil Nadu Government has failed to adopt such proactive and

progressive strategy.

The farmers are also concerned about the

ownership rights of the land that would be

acquired under ―Right to use‖ and are not

clear as to whether they can continue to

cultivate traditional crops and whether the

farming operations would be affected.

Agriculture experts have not been called to

explain the details to the farmers with

necessary advice and guidance.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 14

WAY TO SOLVE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE ISSUE IN TAMIL NADU

How to solve the issue now?

While the Supreme Court has given a verdict in favour of the pipeline project, this will not be the end of

the story. With continuing agitation by the affected and unhappy farmers, such pipeline project

extending 310 km length in several districts can not implemented.

The feasibility of providing employment, by starting some employment oriented units appropriate to the

skill of local farmers should be examined, apart from extending adequate lumpsum compensation and

recurring amount every year atleast for 10 years.

In USA, some progressive companies have gone to the extent of providing equity shares in the company

to the people whose land have been taken away.

Why not think with compassion and understanding instead of approaching the issues in bureaucratic

style with impractical approach ?

.While the farmers are bound to

view the Supreme Court verdict

with respect, the ball is in the court

of GAIL and Tamil Nadu

Government to utilize the new

situation after the Supreme Court

verdict.

The farmers may be given a few

lakh of rupees as compensation but

that can not protect their families

in long term, when they would lose

the regular income from the

farming operations that would be

available year after year .

More problems remain

LNG terminal project is now

under installation at Ennore.

The project has proposed to

install gas pipeline with length of

1170 km from Ennore to

Tuticorin, with the investment of

around Rs.2800 crore.

When even 310 km gas pipeline

project can not be implemented,

how will 1170 km pipeline

project see the light of the day ?

FLEX FUEL POLICY OF GOVERNMENT OF INDIA

UNCERTAINTIES AND DOUBTS

Flex fuels are widely used in several countries, famously Brazil and the United States, where they are

available at the pump; examples include E10, E15, E85, the number reflecting the proportion of ethanol.

The technology for the engines that can take these fuels is certainly not new but suitably designed

engines are not yet available in India .Government of India is reported to have asked Volkswagen to

come up with a flex fuel engine. It requires modifications along the supply chain and calibrating the

engine for Indian conditions.

Unanswered questions

However, the question is how viable it is to run existing petrol engines on blended fuels? While a

regular vehicle not especially made for biofuels could run on these fuels for a few years, this is not a

feasible strategy in the medium to long term for several reasons.

One of the reasons is that ethanol, unlike petrol, is prone to oxidation and this can cause gum like

sediments to accumulate in various engine parts. Ethanol also reacts with other materials in the car,

such as rubber and this causes degradation.

Consequently, if flex fuels are to be rolled out, engines will have to be built for them and this will mean

an additional variant for manufacturers‘ production plants.Adding an additional line of engine variants is

not cheap. All this accumulates as additional costs for the car companies and they may not like doing this

unless they are forced or required to do it.

At present, the most obvious and reliable source of bio ethanol in India is sugarcane. The world‘s

second largest sugar market, India produces some Rs.800 billion of sugar and supports approximately

40 million people.

Flexible fuel cars are cars that can run on bio-ethanol and petrol or a blend of both.

Government of India‘s move to encourage use of flex fuels will decrease pollution and encourage

diversion in the sugar industry‘s output away from sugar and towards ethanol.

However, a policy on flex-fuel vehicles is likely to affect the automotive industry in several ways.

The policy ought to be carefully aligned with the country‘s overall objectives in the sector.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 16

FLEX FUEL POLICY OF GOVERNMENT OF INDIA – UNCERTAINTIES AND DOUBTS

Ethanol blending policy

The government‘s current Ethanol Blending Policy mandates five percent blending of ethanol with petrol,

though in reality, the average ethanol blending achieved has been just two percent.

The government wishes to achieve 10 percent blending.

A new flex fuel policy will mean a diversion in the production process to support the production of

ethanol rather than sugar. The government is keen to increase the ethanol component in this mix, partly

because the sugar industry has an excess supply problem and consequently sugar prices are depressed.

Mills are mired in debt to cane farmers.

An industry paper by McKinsey & Company suggests that 5 million metric tonne of excess sugar could

be exported or diverted to ethanol production.

If a flex fuel policy comes into effect, the additional ethanol demand will likely exceed what can be

produced by diverting resources from sugar.

Alternate feed stock for ethanol

However, improved yield and demand for ethanol does not necessarily have to be met via additional

acreage under sugarcane. Some of it can come from sources other than molasses, such as cellulosic

ethanol, made from bagasse or sugarcane tops and some can come from improved farming practices or

planting higher yielding varieties of cane.

Such differences in productivity are already evident across the country; Tamil Nade cane growers have

achieved yield of 100 metric tonne of sugar per hectare of cane, while Uttar Pradesh and Bihar yield

50 to 55 metric tonne per hectare.

Even if a ten percent increase in sugarcane yield happens, this would produce 3 million metric tonne

extra of sugar or 2 billion litres of ethanol. This quantity of ethanol is equivalent to 7 to 8 percent of

India‘s total petrol consumption. India imports more than 80 percent of its crude oil, so this will mean

significant reductions in the oil bill.

GAS HYDRATE - PROSPECTS IN INDIA

ONGC has struck gas reserve in the form of hydrates - otherwise known as 'fire ice' off the Andhra

coast that could turn out to be four times larger in terms of yield than Reliance Industries Ltd's

discovery of 2002, India's biggest so far.

The discovery was made in August last year by the second exploratory expedition under the

government's gas hydrate programme in collaboration with scientists from US and Japan.

The hydrate discovery validates the government's stress on finding alternative sources of energy and

efforts to attract investments in the exploration business.

ONGC intends to benefit from Japan's experience and technology by starting pilot production from its

discovery from 2017.

The sources put the initial reserves potential of the hydrates at 134 tcf (trillion cubic feet). Even if

ONGC manages to pump out a tenth of the reserves, the discovery could yield nearly 13 tcf of gas

against RIL's 9 tcf. Sources, however, expressed confidence of achieving a 30% recovery rate due to the

location‘s sandy geology, which makes it easier to extract gas by using ―depressurisation‖ technology.

Broadly, commercially useful gas hydrates are formed when methane or natural gas get trapped in

icicles.

These are found at places with extreme cold temperatures such as the Arctic region, Alaska and

Siberia; or below seabed under high pressure of water depth.

Technology for producing gas from hydrates is still in pilot stage - though considerable success in

Japan, US and Canada gives hope.

Indeed, Japan has declared that it would start commercial gas production from its offshore

hydrates from 2020 after proving commerciality of the technology by 2018.

Sources in the Directorate

General of Hydrocarbons,

the oil ministry's technical

arm co-ordinating the gas

hydrates programme, said

that the discoveries have

been made in Blocks 982,

D3, D6 and D9 in the

Krishna-Godavari basin, off

the Andhra coast.These

blocks are 30 Km south-

west of Reliance industries

Ltd's natural gas block

Asia/Pacific region

The Asia/Pacific region is the largest market for geosynthetics, with China alone accounting for nearly 40% of world demand in 2014.,

―Geosynthetics sales in China, which more than doubled between 2009 and 2014, are expected to continue to record above average gains through 2019, bolstered by sustained advances in non building construction

activity.‖ Elsewhere in the Asia/Pacific region, geosynthetics sales in India are projected to grow due to the Indian government‘s continued investment in the country‘s infrastructure.

US scenario

In 2014, North America accounted for 22% of global geosynthetics sales. The US is the world‘s second

largest national market for geosynthetics, with 18% of global demand in 2014. Through 2019, gains in North America will result from an expected acceleration in construction activity. Additional support will come from

environmental regulations that focus on preventing harmful materials from contaminating groundwater supplies.

Global demand for geosynthetics is forecast to rise 6.1% per year through 2019 to 6.5 billion square

meters.

Growth will be driven by China, which is expected to account for 60% of additional global demand

generated between 2014 and 2019 primarily due to its ongoing development of large scale

infrastructure projects and need for erosion control.

Further bolstering world demand will be growing concerns regarding environmental protection and

greater awareness of the performance advantages of geosynthetics in a variety of applications.

Geosynthetics will gain market share at the expense of other geotechnical solutions, including

organic erosion control blankets, aggregates and compacted soil.

Additionally, the implementation of more stringent regulatory standards for environmental

stewardship, waste management and construction codes will provide opportunities. These and other

trends are presented in World Geosynthetics, a new study from The Freedonia Group, Inc.,

a Cleveland based industry research firm.

USE OF ARTIFICIAL SAND FOR CONSTRUCTION

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Quality requirement of sand in mortar

The sand in the mortar does not add any strength but it is used as an adulterant for economy and it

prevents the shrinkage and cracking of mortar in setting.

The sand must be of proper gradation (it should have particles from 150 microns to 4.75 mm in proper

proportion)

When fine particles are in proper proportion, the sand will have less voids. The cement required will be

less, when there will be less void in sand. Such sand will be more economical.

Only sand manufactured by V.S.I. (Vertical shaft impact) crusher is cubical and angular in shape. Sand

made by other types of machines is flaky.Manufacturing sand from jaw crusher, cone crusher, roll

crusher alone often contains high percentage of dust and have flaky particle. Flaky and angular particles

may produce harsh concrete and may result in spongy concrete.

Comparative specification

Artificial sand produced under strict industrial control has equivalent quality of river sand to produce

concrete.

River sand Artificial Sand

Cement one bag 50 Kg 50 Kg

Sand 135 Kg 125 Kg

Agg. 20 mm 135 Kg 137 Kg

Agg. 12 mm 67.5 Kg 75 Kg

Water 27.5 ltrs 27.5 Ltr

Strength achieved after 7 days curing 174.81 Kg/Cmsq. 186.67 Kg / Cmsq.

Demand driver for artificial sand

Growing curbs on mining of natural lake sand have led to a serious shortage of sand in the market,

where artificial sand manufacturers see major opportunity.

Recent development in Telangana

Telangana government estimates sand requirement at around 40 lakh cubic metre every year for

construction of dams and canals.

Artificial sand is crushed aggregates produced from hard granite stone, which is cubically shaped with

grounded edges, washed and graded with consistency to be used as a substitute for river sand.

Artificial sand is produced by passing boulders and stones through a series of jaw and cone

crushers for size reduction and then fed into vertical shaft impact crushers, where they are

pulverised further to the size of sand.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 21

USE OF ARTIFICIAL SAND FOR CONSTRUCTION- RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Proposal in Andhra Pradesh

Andhra Pradesh government is also insisting on extensively using the artificial sand in the construction

of the new green field capital city Amaravati, owing to inadequate availability of natural lake sand for

taking up construction works on a large scale.

Proposal in other states

States like Kerala and Karnataka are also opting for the manufactured sand and are increasingly using it

in their projects.

Price factor

At present, the artificial sand is nearly 50% cheaper than river sand. While river sand is being sold at

around Rs.1,300 per metric tonne, the artificial sand is sold for nearly half the price of river sand.

Prognosis

Though artificial sand yield quality concrete, but the question one needs to ask are these: Are we really

solving the environmental concerns? Isn‘t it a misplaced attempt to substitute river sand by artificial sand as

rocks are also minerals that need to be conserved?

Government of Telangana has decided

to extensively use the manufactured

sand for all its large irrigation projects.

Telangana government had initially

issued orders permitting the use of

artificial sand to the extent of upto 50%

and has recently allowed use of artificial

sand upto 100% in large scale irrigation

projects.

However, as the ecosystem for artificial

sand has not yet developed, it may be

necessary to use a combination of both.

PLIGHT OF FLOOD HIT MSME UNITS IN TAMIL NADU

There are reported to be around 60000 MSME units in the four districts in Tamil Nadu that were

operating when severe flood hit the area. MSME units in the four districts have invested around

Rs.6000 crores and employ around 450000 people.

Amongst 60000 units, around 15000 units in the four districts have been hit at various levels of severity.

These tiny, small and vulnerable MSME units now face uncertainty and are desperately in need of

government support to revive their operation.

A large number of units in the Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector in the four

districts of Chennai, Tiruvallur, Kancheepuram and Cuddalore in Tamil Nadu were severely hit by

the recent flood, causing loss of production as well as loss of the raw materials and tools, apart

from maintenance requirement of equipment.

MSME units are involved in different areas of

activity such as textiles/ready made

garments, electrical parts, packaging

services, auto components, leather products

, wooden material, steel parts, paper

products, instrumentation , refractories,

testing of equipment, fabrication of structural

and chemical equipment etc.

MSME units generally function either as

ancillary units to large factories or contract

manufacturers or sub contractors or

maintenance providers or merchant

producers of finished products catering to

the market. These units largely depend upon

nearby large units for their operations and

sustenance.

In the wake of flood water entering the

premises and remaining in the premises for

over 10 days, the operation of several units

have been paralyzed. Therefore, they are

unable to execute the existing orders or

accept new ones even after a few weeks of

flood water receding, which have crippled

their finances leading to retrenchment.

In such scenario, the large units who place

orders with MSME units may have started

looking elsewhere for their supplies and

other requirement and therefore, the flood

affected MSME units now face grim future

and face the threat of losing their market

place and customers.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 23

PLIGHT OF FLOOD HIT MSME UNITS IN TAMIL NADU

Most of the MSME units have invested in the range of Rs.5 lakhs to Rs.15 lakhs each on an average and

employ 5 to 20 people on an average. It is very necessary that Government of Tamil Nadu and

Government of India should take some urgent measures to protect the units and prevent their closure,

which would result in loss of employment and loss of production and loss of revenue to the state also,

apart from driving the owners of the unit to despair and even insolvency.

Various associations representing the MSME sector have appealed to the government to support the

affected units at this critical juncture by providing Rs.1 lakh by way of aid, Rs.1 lakh by way of interest

free loan as well as waiver of interest on loan for 5 years and reschedule of loan payment obligation

and also waiver of sales tax, service tax and excise duty for a period of one year.

Such financial support may cost the government around Rs.500 crores , which is affordable for the

Tamil Nadu Government, particularly considering the fact that Tamil Nadu Government is spending

over Rs.11000 crore every year in providing freebies such as television, grinder, laptop, cycle etc.

The grievances of the MSME sector is that the Government of India and Tamil Nadu government have

been slow in responding to their appeal for support. While number of MSME units have insured

themselves, most of the insurance claims are yet to be settled. While banks have announced some

concessions, many of the announcement of concessions are yet to be implemented.

It is necessary that the Government of Tamil Nadu should constitute a special cell urgently to look into

the problems of the flood affected MSME units and provide them relief, atleast within the next few

weeks . Insurance companies must be asked to provide atleast 50% of the claimed amount immediately

without scrutiny and then later on, the claim settlement process can be completed after scrutiny. In the

case of excess payment , the excess amount, if any, may be claimed back from the units by laying down

proper procedures.

Preferential treatment for supply of products required by the state and central government may be

extended to the flood affected MSME units in the four districts.

Tamil Nadu government has announced some measures on 14th January 2016. However, these measures

like providing free electric meter to the units, temporary loans to repay interest for

6 months, free loans upto Rs.5000/- to help revive the livelihood of small traders etc. fall far short of

requirements

It is necessary that government should refrain from initiating half hearted measures or taking cosmetic

steps . More substansive assistance programme are required. Such incomplete measures would not help

the units to come out of the present distress conditions.

Make in India campaign of Government of India would remain irrelevant as far as MSME units in the

flood affected four districts of Tamil Nadu are concerned, if these units, who make products in India, are

left to themselves to face the uncertainty and suffer without meaningful and tangible government

support in quick time.

DISTRIBUTING MEDICINAL POWDER TO PREGNANT WOMEN ON LARGE SCALE CALL FOR CAUTION

Government of India has said in the parliament that many producers of herbal products claim that their

products cure diseases such as diabetes and herbal products are touted as energy boosters, as oils for

arthritis and as slimming packs among others. Number of cases have been framed against herbal

companies by the state governments for making such tall claims and issuing objectionable advertisement

without any basis or scientific evidence. Under the Drugs & Magic Remedies (Objectionable

Advertisement) Act, 1954, the Kerala, Gujarat, Delhi and Uttarakhand governments, have filed cases

against herbal firms.

Most of the herbals have several chemical constituents including the chemical that have medicinal

property.For example, scientists have discovered over 150 nutritional ingredients in aloe vera. In the

case of withania somnifera (ashwagantha), there are many chemical constituents including different type of

alkaloids, steroidal lactones, salts, etc.

Further, conditions under which such natural products are cultivated, type of soil and pesticides used,

if any, call for very careful scrutiny and scientific tests. All herbal products may not be grown under

organic farming, which are certified.

One is not sure whether such scrutiny have been carried out extensively in the case of herbal powder

that are proposed to be distributed by Government of Tamil Nadu to pregnant woman...

It should be particularly kept in view that such herbal powder would largely be given to the pregnant

women, who are different from normal women as far as health conditions are concerned.

The Government of Tamil Nadu should not distribute the herbal power to cross section of pregnant

women all over Tamil Nadu, without subjecting them to careful medical test to ascertain their physical

conditions, to ascertain whether they can consume such products.

It is reported that in all, 11 herbal products such as pomegranate and curry leave powder,

godseberry powder would be provided by Government of Tamil Nadu free of cost to the

pregnant women at various stage of pregnancy.

In this connection, one may recall the recent statement of the Government of India in the

parliament that some herbal products are found to be sub standard and not adequately tested .

Therefore, it requires enormous caution before the

Government of Tamil Nadu goes ahead to distribute

the herbal products to the pregnant women.

As it is well known, unlike allopathic medicines, where

active pharma ingredients and drugs are subjected to

thorough clinical trials for several years before

according approval for use, such clinical trials are not

carried out in the case of herbal medicines. Further,

even complete chemical analysis of the herbal powder

are rarely carried out and most of the herbal products

now in the market for sale may not have been

certified by accredited agencies.

PLANT CLOSURES

Celanese sells emulsions unit, closes others

Celanese has closed its vinyl acetate ethylene (VAE) emulsions production units at Tarragona, Spain.

Celanese. In late 2013,it also closed a vinyl acetate monomer unit at Tarragona.

The move followed a strategy review by Celanese that included assessing the company‘s manufacturing

facilities. Celanese says that it tried unsuccessfully to find a buyer for the VAE emulsions unit.

Production at that unit ceased at the end of October.

The company says that for its emulsion polymers business, the manufacturing footprint strategy favors

integrated production sites that provide economies of scale.

Celanese has sold its atmospheric—vinyl and acrylics—emulsions unit at La Canonja, Spain, to

petrochemical company Industrias Químicas del Oxido de Etileno.

Iqoxe produces ethylene oxide (EO), glycols, and EO derivatives. The company acquired Celanese‘s

25,000 metric tonne per year atmospheric emulsions unit.

Iqoxe, under a multiyear agreement, will produce certain emulsions products for which Celanese will

remain the channel to market

Celanese announced plans in November, 2015 to close its VAE emulsions units at Meredosia, IL,

by 15 December.

Celanese is scheduled to start up a VAE emulsions plant at its acetyls facility at Jurong Island, Singapore,

by mid-2016.

Covestro to close MDI plant in Spain, turn site into chem park

Covestro (Leverkusen) intends to close a 170,000 metric tonne per year methylene di para phenylene

isocyanate (MDI) plant at Tarragona, Spain, by the end of 2017 and transform the site into a chemical

park.

The facility accounts for 30% of Covestro‘s MDI capacity in Europe, the Mideast, and Asia and 12% of

the company‘s worldwide capacity.

The decision followed a detailed site analysis, which concludes, in the long term, the facility could no

longer competitively produce MDI because the company cannot guarantee a competitive future supply

of chlorine to the site. The plant currently receives chlorine from an on site partner.

A polyurethanes systems house at the Tarragona site, which serves several countries, will be retained.

Covestro also plans to build hydrochloric acid (HCl) logistics and infrastructure facilities at the site.

The current infrastructure facilities at Tarragona will remain available to other companies operating at

the chemical park.

Inovyn to close chloromethanes unit in UK

Inovyn is a 50-50 joint venture between Ineos and Solvay that was launched on 1 July. Its product

portfolio includes chlorine and derivatives including polyvinyl chloride, and its annual sales exceed

€3.5 billion ($3.79 billion).

Inovyn (London) will close a chloromethanes plant at Runcorn, UK, effective 1 March 2016.

The closure forms part of Inovyn‘s plan to focus chloromethanes production at the company‘s Tavaux,

France; and Rosignano, Italy, sites in response to lower demand in Europe.

The company says that it will continue to offer a full range of methylene chloride grades, as well as

chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, and perchlorethylene.

Inovyn also says closing the Runcorn chloromethanes unit will allow the company to exploit the

resulting increased availability of chlorine from the company‘s membrane cell chlor alkali plant at

FIRE AT DECCAN FINE CHEMICALS UNIT

IN ANDHRA PRADESH

A fire broke out in the warehouse of Deccan Fine Chemicals at Rajavaram village in

Payakaraopeta mandal of Visakhapatnam district, Electrical short-circuit is suspected to be the

cause of the mishap.

There were no workers in the warehouse at the time and there were no casualties, but the

smoke from burning chemicals spread to villages in the vicinity and people developed nausea.

It was the second major fire in two years. On April 11, 2014, fire broke out at the same plant

due to a reactor blast that left two dead and about 26 injured.

Deccan Fine Chemicals produces chemicals such as tricyclazole, amicarbazone and prodiamine,

and it is in on an expansion mode. The factory has been set up on 35 acres and is planning to

ANTI DUMPING PAGE

Metallurgical coke

The investigation has been initiated by the Government of India in connection with the cheap imports

of low ash metallurgical coke.

Indian Metallurgical Coke Manufacturers Association (IMCOM), an umbrella body representing

Saurashtra Fuels, Gujarat NRE Coke Ltd, Carbon Edge Industries Ltd, Bhatia Coke and Energy Ltd and

Basudha Udyog Pvt Ltd had filed an application for initiation of anti dumping investigation and imposition

of anti dumping duty on imports of low ash metallurgical coke originating in or exported from Australia

and China.

The domestic metallurgical coke industry has been suffering for the last few years due to dumping of

Chinese met coke. The cheap imports have increased exponentially – by over 5 times – in the last few

years and is today sold at a price much lower than the cost of production of met coke.

SBR latex

Directorate General of Anti Dumping and Allied Duties (DGAD), an arm of the Commerce Ministry of

Government of India, has begun investigating imports of 'Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) of 1,500 series

and 1,700 series' from three regions namely EU, South Korea and Thailand

The period of investigation covers October 2014 to September 2015 (12 months).

SBR is mainly used in footwear, rubberised fabric, tyres, tread, conveyor belt, hose and shoes, water

pipes and auto accessories.

Indian Synthetic Rubber Pvt is a joint venture of Indian Oil Corporation, TSRC, Taiwan, and Marubeni

Corporation, Japan. The company commenced commercial production in February 2014. It has claimed

that the dumping of the product in the country is materially retarding establishment of the domestic

industry.

Reliance Industries, the co applicant, has also set up a plant for production of the product under

consideration, but is yet to announce its commercial production.

Sorbitol

Pakistan recently imposed 16.97 percent anti dumping duty on sorbitol, for a five year period after an

investigation found dumping of the industrial input from India.

―The National Tariff Commission (NTC) imposed a definitive anti dumping duty at 16.97 percent on

import of Sorbitol from India for a period of five years,‖ the commission said in a statement .

The NTC‘s latest decision followed the same provisional anti dumping duty slapped ad valorem of cost

and freight (C&F) price of Sorbitol imported from India for four months effective from August 25, 2015.

The commission said that the definitive anti dumping duty would be in addition to other anti dumping

duty imposed earlier and taxes and duties levied under any other law.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 28

ANTI DUMPING PAGE

―However, it would not be levied on imports that are to be used as inputs in products destined solely

for exports,‖ it said in a statement.

Pakistani trade ministry had launched the probe in March, 2015 as a local manufacturer, complained that

cheap Sorbitol imports had hurt domestic firms.

The commission launched a probe to determine the dumping between Jan. 1, 2014 and Dec. 31, 2014,

but its period of investigation to determine the injury caused by dumping to the local industry spanned

over two years (Jan. 1 2012 to Dec. 31, 2014).

The commission extended the scope of the provision duty for five years.

Plastic processing machine

The Government of India is expected to impose anti dumping duty of upto 44.7 percent on import of

certain kinds of plastic processing machines from four countries, including Vietnam, Malaysia and the

Philippines.

The move is aimed at protecting the domestic industry from cheap in bound shipments from these

countries.

The restrictive duty recommended was in the range of 6.06 percent to 44.74 percent. While DGAD

recommends the duty, the Finance Ministry imposes it.

The Plastics Machinery Manufacturers Association of India, along with its members including Toshiba

Machine (Chennai), Ferromatik Milacron India and Windsor Machines, had filed the application for the

investigation.

Mulberry silk

Government of India has imposed USD 1.85 per kg anti dumping duty on mulberry raw silk originating

from China to protect domestic industry from cheap inbound shipments.

Import of the silk from China had increased considerably from 12.63 lakh kg in 2010-11 to 22.17 lakh kg

during the period of the investigation (April 2013 to June 2014). *****

The Directorate General of Anti dumping and

Allied Duties (DGAD) during its investigation

has concluded that the 'Plastic Processing

Machines or Injection Moulding Machines' are

entering the Indian market from these countries

at "dumped prices" and performance of the

domestic industry has deteriorated due to that.

Accordingly, anti dumping duty as a percentage

of the landed value of the goods is

recommended to be imposed on all imports of

the products originating in or exported from

these four nations for a period of five years.

METHYL METHACRYLATE – INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY

Name Methyl methacrylate (MMA)

CAS number 80-62-6

Physical state Liquid

Density 0.94 g per cm3 (20 deg. C)

Flammability Highly flammable

Boiling point 100 to 101 deg.C

Explosive properties Not explosive

Applications

The largest use for MMA is for polymerization into polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), but another major

application is in surface coatings.

MMA is also used as co monomer in methyl methacrylate butadiene styrene resins, used as a modifier

for polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

Acrylic sheets

MMA is used for the production of pure or almost pure homopolymers (PMMA), but there is also wide

variety of copolymer uses. Within the PMMA consumption categories, the largest is for cast and

extruded transparent acrylic sheet (PMMA sheet).

Liquid crystal displays

Acrylics is used in Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) and the current and projected growth for large LCD

screens for home theatre etc. has been a major driver for MMA expansions, especially in Asia, where

virtually all the LCD manufacturing market is now concentrated.

Moulding resins

MMA is used in the production of moulding resins (excluding the resin beads prepared for extruded

acrylic sheet production). Most of the final products are destined for automotive parts and electrical

appliances.

Surface coatings

MMA is used for the production of surface coatings, both for industrial solvent based systems and

increasingly, for water based acrylic dispersions for domestic and industrial use.

MMA is used in water based acrylic dispersions for exterior masonry and wood coatings and semigloss

emulsions for interior decorative coatings.

Process

The first process that was developed in the 1930s – the conventional acetone cyanohydrin (ACH) route

– continues to dominate world production.

Several new methods for MMA production have been developed. These processes, based upon C2

(ethylene) or C4 (butene) feedstock, have received increasing focus, mainly due to the problems

associated with the conventional ACH route, such as undesirable by products formation and handling of

highly corrosive materials.

Process developed by Evonik

Evonik Industries has developed a new manufacturing process nicknamed ‗Aveneer‘ for

methyl methacrylate .

Like the traditional ACH sulphur process, ‗Aveneer‘ is based on the starting materials ammonia,

methane, acetone and methanol without the additional use of sulphuric acid.

Indian scenario

Gujarat State Fertiliser Company (GSFC) is the only producer of MMA in India.

Installed capacity of 5,000 metric tonne per annum of MMA, along with plants for PMMA sheets

(2,000 metric tonne per annum) and PMMA pellets (1,500-metric tonne per annum ).

Evonik

Evonik Industries has started basic planning for a new large scale methyl methacrylate (MMA) production

plant at the company‘s Mobile, AL site in USA using the company‘s Aveneer process. The plant, with

production capacity of 120,000 metrc tonne per year, is expected to come onstream in the middle of

2015. The investment in the project will exceed €100 million ($129 million).

The Mobile site was chosen for the first MMA plant to use the new Aveneer...

Evonik Industries acquired the methacrylate specialty esters business from Arkema in 2009.

The acquisition concerns the products 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, and

n- and iso-butyl methacrylate.

Evonik Industries MMA commissioned production plant into operation at the Shanghai Chemical

Industry Park in November 2009. Glacial methacrylic acid is also being produced in this complex plant,

which uses isobutylene as feedstock.

Evonik now has an annual output of 100,000 metric tonne in Asia.

Lucite

23,000 metric tonne per year methacrylic acid (MAA) plant at the Beaumont facility has been

commissioned.

Lucite International opened the world‘s first Alpha MMA plant on Jurong Island (Singapore) in

November 2009. The plant, which has capacity of 120,000 metric tonne per annum, is the first in a

series of Alpha based production facilities being built globally by Lucite.

Mitsubishi Rayon‘s Lucite subsidiary will proceed with an investment to boost methyl methacrylate

(MMA) capacity at the company‘s Beaumont, TX facility by 150,000 metric tonne per year.

The company restarted the once idled plant in 2011. The plant has the capacity to produce about

390,000 metrc tonne per year of MMA, but operated at reduced rates.

Anti dumping duty on melamine

Government of India has extended the anti dumping duty on import of melamine from China for five

years.

According to a notification, the anti dumping duty on melamine from China would continue

at USD 331.10 per metric tonne.

India had imposed the restrictive duty on melamine for the first time in November 2004. In 2008,

DGAD initiated the sunset review in the matter of continuation of anti dumping duty on imports and in

2010, the duty was imposed.

After the complaint of the domestic industry, the authority initiated the second sunset review

investigation in December 2014 to review the need for continued imposition of the duties.

Melamine imports from China have increased from 17,580 metric tonne in 2010-11 to

30,780 metric tonne during April 2013 to June 2014.

Process brief

Until 1960 ,melamine was manufactured from dicyandiamide in autoclaves in batch processes.

In 1960, Allied Chemical operated first urea based high pressure melamine plant (license from American

Cyanamid).During the same period, Nissan Chemical and Montedison developed their own high

pressure process

Between 1960 and 1965, BASF, DSM/Stamicarbon and AMI(Chemie Linz) developed their own low

for further demand growth.

Substitutability of neopentyl glycol (NPG) with ethylene glycol is expected to be the major restraining

factor for the neopentyl glycol (NPG) market.

Production process

There are two main process routes for the production of NPG. Both the processes use

isobutyraldehyde and formaldehyde as raw materials.

In one process, raw materials are allowed to react with a strongly alkaline catalyst such as sodium

hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or calcium hydroxide, to form NPG. However, in this process, large

amount of formate salts are formed as by product. The process is, therefore, economically suitable only

when a profitable use is found for the formate.

In the second process, the aldolization reaction is carried out in the presence of an amine catalyst, such

as triethylamine, whereby hydroxypivaldehyde is formed. This is further hydrogenated in the presence of

a catalyst such as Ni/Cr on silica, promoted copper chromite or other hydrogenation catalyst.

Usually a solvent, such as methanol or methanol/water is used in hydrogenation step. This process is

more common in the industry.

Production status in India

There is no manufacture of Neopentyl glycol in India.

SUPER ABSORBENT FIBRES – PRODUCT PROFILE

UK based Technical Absorbents Limited first developed its Super Absorbent Fibre (SAF™)

over 20 years ago.

SAF is a cross linked poly acrylate polymer. It has been tested for its suitability in application areas

requiring high degree of toxicity and regulatory approval.

The company has recently invested in a new needle felt/needle punch line at its facility in Grimsby in the

United Kingdom. Needle felt/needle punch is a mechanical way of binding a web to form a fabric by

penetrating the web with an array of barbed needles that carry tufts of the web's own fibres in a vertical

direction through the web.

The line can produce fabrics up to 2m wide in basis weights from 1301000 gsm, containing as much as

95% SAF. To help protect the fibre during processing, the line is housed in a temperature controlled and

low humidity environment. The new line will initially be used for research and development, as well as

for undertaking short order trial runs for customers.

For further details, please visit: www.techabsorbents.com

Courtesy: Filtration Separation, Nov/Dec, 2015

SAF can be converted into a number of fabric and yarn structures using

different web forming processes and can be blended with a range of

synthetic and natural fibres.

The basic functionality of SAF is its ability to absorb rapidly up to 200 times

its own weight in demineralized water and up to 60 times its own weight in

saline water. SAF is white and odourless and has the appearance and

handling characteristic of a textile fibre. Consequently it can be used to

produce a wide range of nonwoven and woven fabrics, and yarns.

Technical Absorbents Limited was originally a joint venture between

Courtaulds and Allied Colloids in 1993. Courtaulds was a specialist in

spinning fibres, while Allied Colloids - now part of BASF- had the expertise

in polymerization technology.

The company can manufacture different kinds of super absorbent fibres for

varying levels of absorbency. It can also vary machine processing conditions,

basis weights and thicknesses to change the material properties. It can then

make a number of different materials, such as yarns, felt fabrics, airlaid

materials and a lot of different finished goods to meet the application

requirement.

Super absorbent material is used in diapers or nappies and is manufactured in high volumes

around the world.

Most super absorbent material on the market is in the form of crystals.Fibre form of super

absorbent material have now been developed and it is a much more versatile material. Fibre form

of super absorbent material can be used in a range of material fabrics or made into yarns.

These can then be employed in more specialist types of super absorbent markets.

Recovery of phosphorus from waste water

While agriculture needs phosphorus, operators of waste water treatment plants must remove it.

This is to prevent eutrophication of fresh water systems.

The removal process of phosphorus from water water presents its own problems. Phosphate salts

containing phosphorus combine with magnesium and ammonium to create struvite, a substance that

clogs pipes, pumps and other equipment. This causes production disruption and increases service costs.

In 2011, Aarhus Water Ltd, a municipal owned company based in Aarhus, Denmark, set out to solve the

problem with pump manufacturer Grundfos and technical consultant firm Norconsult. The solution

they found recovered phosphorus and nitrogen from waste water through the use of a separate reactor.

They needed the reactor because the concentration of phosphorus and nitrogen is low in the waste

water flow. To increase it, they send a side stream of waste water through the reactor and added

magnesium salt. The precipitation process refines the phosphorus, discarding heavy metals and

environmentally unfriendly substances. The outcome is a granulate that contains phosphorus, nitrogen

and magnesium well suited for use a fertiliser.

The technology is now being used in Denmark‘s first phosphorus recovery plant, inaugurated by Aarhus

Water at Aaby in November 2013. The operation produces about 50 kilograms of phosphorus daily.

Technology to maximise output of LPG

Indian Oil Corporation‘s Paradip refinery has developed technology to maximise output of liquefied

petroleum gas (LPG), which is being deployed on a commercial scale for the first time.

Indian Oil piloted its proprietary INDMAX (Indane maximisation) based fluidised catalytic cracking unit

(FCCU) plant at the Guwahati refinery a few years ago on a small scale to test the technology.

Having validated it, the company has now built a 4.1million metric tonne unit at Paradip that will help

boost output of LPG to 44 percent of the input crude oil.

Conventional FCCUs produce about 18 to 20 percent LPG. The FCCU cracks crude oil in the presence

of catalysts into products such as LPG, petrol and propylene. India is short of LPG, with approximately

half of the consumption being imported.

If the company is able to prove commercial success of the technology, it can license it for a fee to other

refining companies.

De Nora says that ClorTec systems generate 0.8% sodium hypochlorite disinfection solution,

a chlorine equivalent, using only salt, water and electricity. ClorTec units range in capacity from upto

1 kg per day to 1,360+ kg per day. To meet varying application specific conditions, the ClorTec units are

available as component based or skid based packaged systems.

On-site sodium hypochlorite generation is a proven, cost effective, reliable and safe alternative to

disinfection using chlorine gas or bulk sodium hypochlorite. On site generated sodium hypochlorite is

stable and easy to feed. Additionally, less chlorine is released to the atmosphere because of better

mixing and retention in the treated water.

STRATEGIC OIL RESERVES IN CHINA

China is building underground caverns capable of holding up to a quarter of its expanded strategic oil

reserves by 2020, as it looks for new storage methods away from expensive and exposed above ground

tanks in crowded coastal regions.

So far, China has built almost all of its SPR tanks above ground, but now at least five underground sites

have been identified, with one at Huangdao in Shandong province completed and another four under

construction, according to local media and several oil analysts surveyed by Reuters.

Despite the cost of drilling the caverns, underground storage can be up to two thirds cheaper than

above ground tanks, especially as the cost of land surges in coastal regions, and are less prone to

potential sabotage, experts said.

While traditional above surface storage has the advantage of a shorter construction period,

the underground caverns generally have the advantages of lower costs, lower environmental risks, as

well as greater perceived level of security.

Underground sites are slated to hold about 130 million barrels, which would account for nearly

a quarter of the 550 million barrel SPR target set by Beijing for 2020, according to local media and

analysts.

Three underground rock cavern sites under construction are at Jinzhou in northeast Liaoning province,

and Zhanjiang and Huizhou in southern Guangdong, all expected to be ready to take oil over 2016

or early 2017.A salt cavern has been partially completed in Jintan, in eastern Jiangsu province.

The apparent consumption of poly carbonate in China grew 12.69% per year from 2005 to 2013.

Domestic apparent consumption of poly carbonate was 1.62 million metric tonne in 2013, but the

current poly carbonate capacity in China is 610 metri tonne, with the domestic demand short of supply.

Ningbo Zhetie Dafeng owns 100 000 metric tonne per annum poly carbonate combined capacity now.

In a move to improve its energy security and take advantage of

cheap oil, China is spending billions of dollars to build up strategic

petroleum reserves (SPR) to meet up to 90 day's worth of net

import demand in case of a disruption.

Government of China confirmed the completion of its first

Regulations on nutraceuticals

The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has amended regulations to fix loopholes in

health supplements as proprietary foods

Nutraceuticals and health and dietary supplements such as fortified foods and energy drinks will no

longer be considered proprietary food by India's regulator, according to revised rules and they will likely

have to be approved as a separate category.

According to the FSSAI's new regulations uploaded on its website on January 25, proprietary food is

now defined as "...an article of food that has not been standardised under these (Food Safety and

Standards) regulations, but does not include any novel food, food for special dietary use, functional food,

nutraceutical, health supplement and such other articles of food which the Central Government may

notify in this behalf."

The regulations specify that "the Food Business Operator shall be fully responsible for the safety of the

proprietary food."

Green norms for sugar mills

To minimise water pollution and wastage, the Govt.

of India has notified stricter environmental

standards for sugar mills. Under the new norms,

which come into effect immediately, the permissible

specific waste water discharge has been halved to

200 litres per metric tonne of cane crushed against

400 litres per metric tonne earlier. The final

treated effluent discharge has been restricted to

100 litres per metric tonne.

This will ultimately result in less consumption of

raw water at the operational level and the

performance of sugar industries will improve.

Farmers in India extensively use at least 66 pesticides that many other countries have banned.

Union minister for agriculture and farmer welfare made this revelation in Parliament.

The minister said the Government of India has set up an expert committee to review pesticides used in

the country.

Cypermethrin 2473 Hazardous to bees UK,EU

Carbendazim 1992 Endocrine disrupting pesticide EU,Australia

Neonicotinoids

One of the first decisions that the Government of India took was to allow the use of neonicotinoids,

although it kills bees and European countries have banned it and the authorities in the US have put it

under scrutiny.

Several pesticides that the World Health Organization and the US Food and Agriculture classified

as carcinogenic remain out of the banned list in India.

At least 10 countries including Sri Lanka banned Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine), which

WHO classified as a carcinogen, but it is not on banned the list in India. "Of the 250-odd pesticides

that are used in the country, the US classifies 109 as highly hazardous," Pesticides Action

Network-India said.

Tell the government to ban neonicotinoid pesticides before

they devastate the India's bee population

It is a class of pesticides that attacks the central

nervous system of insects and farmers use it to

kill bugs and beetles, experts said.

Neonicotinoids can kill bees, key pollinators

plants, in large numbers in a phenomenon called

Colony Collapse Disorder, when there are no

adult bees left but a queen bee and few immature

bees.

A committee recommended use of

neonicotinoids with instructions not to use it

during the flowering stage of the crop.

barred/restricted for use in farming in other countries, has recommended a ban on 13 ‗extremely

hazardous‘ pesticides , phasing out of six ‗moderately hazardous‘ ones by 2020 and review of

27 pesticides in 2018.

The six pesticides suggested for phasing out by 2020 are: alachor, dichorvos, phorate, phosphamidon,

triazophos and trichlorfon.

The Verma panel did not review the use of endosulfan, as it is being examined by the Supreme Court.

The committee also recommended certain deadlines, failing which registration of pesticides could be

cancelled.

―All the deemed to be registered pesticides (DRP) need to be re evaluated for their bio efficacy and

residue data against major target pests as per approved label claims, and baseline toxicity data may be

generated by the registrants by December 2017; otherwise the Certificate of Registration will be

treated as deem(ed) cancelled w.e.f. 1st January 2018,‖ the committee said.

FIRE AT TAMIL NADU NEWSPRINT AND PAPERS LTD.,

A contract worker was killed in a fire accident at the Tamil Nadu Newsprint and Papers Limited

Two contract workers were killed in a fire accident at the Tamil

Nadu Newsprint and Papers Limited (TNPL) unit in Pudhalur near

Karur district in Tamil Nadu.

Contract workers were busy at the coal crushing section, when the

fire broke out around 2.30pm.

The coal was meant to be used in the paper making process. Fire

spread across a pile of coal in the chamber and soon engulfed three

workers.

SUGGESTION ON TESTING OF GM CROPS IN INDIA

Making a strong case for the central regulatory authority, Dr.M.S.Swaminathan said, "There is at present

no opposition to medical, industrial and environmental biotechnology. Rightly the concerns are around

(for) food biotechnology. This is why a Parliament approved Bio safety Regulatory Authority has become

an urgent need. This is essential for implementing Prime Minister's suggestion for harnessing the benefits

of molecular biology and genetic engineering for agricultural progress".

Though the central regulator Genetic Engineering Appraisal Committee (GEAC) had in July, 2014

approved field trials of many transgenic varieties of rice, wheat, maize, sorghum, cotton, brinjal, mustard,

potato, sugarcane and chickpea, many states preferred not to give their mandatory nod for the scientific

field testing.

As a result, trials of many of the transgenic varieties of the food crops got stuck.

―The Maharashtra government has now given permission to seed firms to begin field trials with GM

varieties of rice, corn, chickpea and cotton.

Many other states including Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan, had

thereafter denied permission of field trials.

While Gujarat had refused to give its nod for field trials of only GM food crops, the other states did

notagree for trials of any transgenic variety of seeds. Other naysayers include Bihar, West Bengal,

Odisha, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.

Urea coated with castor oil

Gujarat State Fertilises & Chemical has developed process for urea coated with castor oil.The company

claims that the consumption of urea in India would come down by 40 percent by using urea coated with

castor oil.

If urea is enwrapped in a material made of castor oil, exposure to temperature comes down drastically

thereby reducing the evaporation process..

GSFC says that the product is ready and under trial. It may be available for farmers in a couple of

seasons after government clearance. The proprietary product developed releases nitrogen in a

staggered manner, significantly reducing the losses."

*****

Agricultural scientist M S Swaminathan has suggested that

the country‘s premier research institution — Indian

Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) — should

organise an ‗all India coordinated project‘ for field tests of

genetically engineered crops at the farms of agriculture

universities as it would provide a uniform method of

assessment.

With the matter of field trials at a complete standstill in

many states.

New blood test to track skin cancer

Researchers have developed a new blood test that can closely track metastatic melanoma -- one of the

most aggressive forms of skin cancer.

David Polsky, dermatologist at NYU Langone Medical Center, in New York, explained that the ctDNA

test was also found to be helpful in patients with small tumours, whose melanoma had nevertheless

spread. Recent studies have suggested that ctDNA blood testing may be useful in monitoring

progression of breast and colon cancers as well, he added.

Thirty one patients with inoperable metastatic melanoma were involved in the study, which will be

published in the new issue of Molecular Oncology.

Clinical trials for two new drugs developed by IICT,Hyderabad

Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT),Hyderabad will be filing an investigative new drug

application for two new molecules for treatment of cancer and Alzheimer‘s.

In line with the current demand for new drug discovery, IICT have been developing these two molecules

which are in pre clinical trials stage now. After the approval from the Drug Controller General of India,

the clinical trials are likely to begin by 2018.

The molecule for Alzheimer‘s is a natural product, while IICT are following the H-DAC path for cancer

drug.

The CSIR lab is planning to license out the clinical trials to multinational companies, as it does not have

the wherewithal to conduct clinical trials on its own.

Assuming that the candidates will prove to be successful, IICT will reserve the right to fix the drug

price for the Indian population, to provide it cheaper.

Ashwagandha to treat Alzheimer disease

The Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore is in the midst of a research using ashwagandha that

offers a hope for people suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

IISc is using an extract of the ashwagandha root (an ayurvedic plant extract) on mice with Alzheimer's

disease. The preliminary finding is that it can reverse memory loss.

The Tatas have pledged Rs 75 crore grant for the research being done on the IISc campus.

The study shows that the test which monitors the blood levels of

DNA fragments from dead cancer cells, helps in tracking the severity

and potential spread of the skin cancer.

The research team found that ctDNA could detect cancer recurrence,

as confirmed by X-ray or CT scan, in 22 of 26 patients tested (85

percent) and undergoing therapy.

Underground coal mining – Prospects in India

A UK expert on coal mining feels that India will be better off going in for underground mining of coal

rather than restricting itself to surface mining. This will not only help India meet its growing coal

demand for power generation, but also enable greater mechanisation and reduce environmental

degradation caused by surface mining.

Addressing a seminar on ―Sustainability: prosperity that preserves resources and limits emissions‖

David Johnson, Non Executive Chairman of Hargreaves Mining India Ltd, said that proven technology for

efficient underground coal mining was available elsewhere in the world.

Johnson said nearly 95 percent of coal mined in China was underground, while in the US and Australia,

it accounted for half the coal mined.

In India, there is hardly any underground coal mining, in sharp contrast to the 1970s, when all of the

70 million metric tonne of coal produced annually was through underground mining.

Underground coal is of better quality and there are added environmental benefits, with less land

required than surface mining, and the cost of restoring the land too, was not much.

KG-D6 wells may dry up by 2020

The Reliance Industries operated KG-D6 gas block, once regarded as capable of transforming India‘s

energy sector, may cease to produce by 2020. The existing fields in the block are drying up faster than

assumed earlier and the explorer may not spend on development of newer areas in the absence of

‗remunerative‘ gas prices.

Production from the block — officially called KG-DWN-98/3 — peaked in the last quarter of FY10,

when it touched 60 million metric standard cubic metre per day (mmscmd) and has since plummeted to

the current level of 9.5 mmscmd.

Output from fields in the KG-D6 block including D1, D3 and D26 are dipping fast and at this rate, the

production could come to a near zero ievel in the four years. The work programme and budget does

not reflect any development of newer areas in KG-D6. It means that output is not going to rise and

would fall every month. In 2002, Reliance Industries

Ltd., struck gas in the D1-D3

fields of KG-D6 block and it

has been producing gas from

these fields since April 1,

2009.

It has also been producing

light crude oil from the D26

oil field in KG D6 block, since

September 17, 2008.

.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 67

ENERGY PAGE

Both projects have been commissioned in a record time — the D1-D3 fields in about six and half years

since the discovery and the D26 field in just a little over two years, since it was found.

―Fall in oil and gas production was mainly on account of natural decline in the fields,‖ RIL said on

October 16,2015.

BP and Canada‘s Niko Resources are RIL‘s partners in KG-D6 block.

RIL‘s revenue from domestic exploration and production gas dropped 15.5% year on year

to Rs.1,166 crore during July to September quarter of FY16 against Rs.1,380 crore in the same months

previous year.

Lower oil and condensate prices and decline in gas production from KG-D6 block led to the 15.5% fall

in revenues.

Coal bed methane output ‘on the decline’ in Bengal

There are two producers of coal bed methane (CBM) in West Bengal.

The Ministry of Petroleum says sequentially total production in West Bengal is on the decline since

September.

Great Eastern Energy, the first CBM producer in the country, that was producing a little over 0.3 million

metric standard cubic metre gas a day (mmscmd) for quite sometime, denies any decline in fortune.

Essar Oil that has recorded nearly three fold rise in production over the last year to reach

0.75 mmscmd in July, refused to answer queries.

In August, West Bengal produced 34.04 million cubic metre of gas (approximately 1.09 million cubic

metre on a daily basis), up from 33.65 million cubic metre in July and 113 percent more than the

corresponding period in the previous year.

The trend changed from September, when the total production was marginally down to 33.18 million

cubic metres. A back of the envelope calculation suggests daily production was stagnant at the level of

August.

The total production slipped to 30.52 million cubic metre (0.9 mmscmd) in October and 30.38 million

cubic metres in November, 70 percent higher than last year.

Solar power tariff touches a new low of Rs.4.34 per unit

Solar tariffs have fallen to an unprecedented low of Rs.4.34 a kWhr. Finnish company Fortum Finnsurya

Energy has quoted that tariff to bag mandate to set up a 70 MW solar plant under NTPC‘s Bhadla Solar

Park tender.

NTPC bid out 420 MW under ‗batch II, tranche-I of the second phase of the National Solar Mission‘,

in six blocks of 70 MW each.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2016 Page 68

The other winners were Rising Sun Energy Pvt Ltd (two blocks for Rs.4.35 a kWhr), Solairedirect

(two blocks for Rs.4.35) and Yarrow Infrastructure (one block for Rs.4.36).

Thirteen of the 22 bidders quoted tariffs less than Rs.5, with the bidder ranked 13, Suraksha Realty,

quoting Rs.4.89.

ACME Solar and Hero Future Energy, which quoted Rs,4.40 and Rs.4.44 respectively, came closest to

the winning bids.

In November, American renewable energy company SunEdison made news by winning solar projects in

Andhra Pradesh, offering to sell power at Rs.4.63 a kWhr, a new low then.

On shore block project of Cairn India in Rajasthan

―Cairn India has successfully drilled horizontal in complex geologies and has completed multi stage

fracking of wells with encouraging results. It is amongst the first to apply micro seismic hydrofrac

monitoring technology in India.

Of the 2 billion barrels of in place resources in Barmer Hill (an area in the Barmer block), recovery of

10 to 15% is expected across the various fields, starting with Mangala and Aishwariya (other fields in the

block). However, the challenge is exploiting tight oil could be about $8 to 10 per barrel expensive than

taking out conventional hydrocarbon.

During FY2015 ,the company successfully completed the appraisal phase of the Barmer Hill

development. In this appraisal phase of the project, initial well productivity rates lie within a range of

800 barrels of oil per day (bopd) to 1,000 bopd.

Cairn India drilled eight horizontal and four vertical wells during the phase, while three wells were

brought online during the first quarter of FY16.

The company managed to reduce well costs by nearly 15% and realised better cost efficiency for drilling

and completion of well at Barmer Hill tight reservoir formation over one year.

******

Cairn India, which is seeking a 10 year

contract extension for its onshore block

(RJ-ON-90/1) in Rajasthan, is betting big on

tight oil potential in the block to boost its

hydrocarbon output.

Cairn India is leveraging latest technologies

from North America to unlock the tight oil

potential of its Rajasthan block. This has lead

to average production of 5,500 bopd from

tight oil reservoir in the Barmer Hill and

satellite fields in the block.‖
