HPL is all geared up to produce the next grade of envronment friendly low sulphur Motor Spirit as per Euro IV Standards.

C4 Hydrogenated (LPG)

Liquefied petroleum gas (also called LPG) is a mixture of hydrocarbon gases used as a fuel in heating appliances and vehicles. HPL produces 110 KTPA LPG through hydrogenenation C4 Raffinate by IFP technology, licenced by IDEA, India. HPL LPG constitutes 100% Butane or Butane : Propane (90% : 10%) blend. HPL LPG Quality USP : Fully Saturated Low Sulphur High Octane HPL sells LPG to both Oil PSUs and private retailers for sell in India. Major usage is in for household supply for domestic cooking & heating and some portion also go for industrial fuel usage. HPL is trying to make entry into HPL LPG usage in Auto-Fuel segment.

Pyrolysis Gasoline

Raw Pyrolysis Gasoline (RPG) aromatics-rich naphtha-range stream produced in sizeable quantities by an ethylene plant when it cracks naphtha, butane or gasoil. Raw Pygas resembles reformate. It can serve as a high-octane blendstock for motor gasoline or as a feedstock for an aromatics extraction unit. Hydrogeneted Pyrolysis Gasoline (HPG) obtained from RPG post Benzene extraction and is used as chemical feedstock for Aromatics – Toluene, mix-Xylene and low & heavy grade Fuel Oil. It is also used as gasoline blending component. HPL has 170 KTPA capacity to produce HPG with IFP technology with licence from Lurgi, Grermany. HPL HPG Quality USP is : High Octane Low Sulphur Low Benzene HPG is sold both in domestic markets mainly to Oil PSUs for gasoline blending and is exported to South East Asia, Africa & Mediterrenean Europe. HPL is also promoting use of HPG as chemical feedstock for value added extraction of chemicals - aromatics and fuel oil.

Carbon Black Feedstock (CBFS)

Carbon black feed stock (CBFS) is the heavy hydrocarbon mix (above C9 to C15) bottom product of Naphtha cracker unit. CBFS is the key raw material used to manufacture carbon black. Roughly 2.2 tonnes of CBFS is required to produce one tonne of carbon black. Carbon black is basically used as a reinforcing agent in rubber products such as tyres, tubes, conveyer belts, cables and other mechanical rubber goods. CBFS is also used as heating Fuel Oil in several industrial units. HPL can produce 54 KTPA of CBFS which is sold to both Carbon Black manufacturing and for fuel oil usage. HPL CBFS Quality USP : Low heavy metals Low sulphur

Benzene

Benzene, or Benzol is an organic chemical compound with formula C6H6. Benzene is a colorless and flammable liquid with a sweet smell and a relatively high melting point. It is an important industrial solvent and precursor in the production of drugs, plastics, synthetic rubber, and dyes. It is also used as an additive to gasoline. Benzene is mainly used as an intermediate to make other industrial chemicals. Its most widely-produced derivatives include Styrene, used to make polymers, plastics and synthetic rubber Phenol (via cumene), for drugs, synthetic resins and adhesives Cyclohexane, used for Caprolactum in manufacture of Nylon Nitrobenzene for Aniline used for MDI (for polyurethane) and dyestuffs Chlorobenzene, used for pesticides (DDT) , herbicides and solvents Alkyl Benzene, for LAB Sulphonate used for laundry detergents & industrial cleaners HPL manufactures 100 KTPA of Benzene with licence from Lurgi, Germany by Sulphur Extraction Process of Pyrolysis Gasoline fraction. HPL Benzene Quality USP is : High Purity > 99.9 % by wt (caprolactum grade) Very Low Sulphur Benzene is sold both in domestic markets mainly in West & South India and also exported from Haldia port to South East Asia & Far East Asia markets.

Butadiene

1,3-Butadiene is a conjugated diene with formula C4H6. It is an important industrial chemical used as a monomer in the production of synthetic rubber. Butadiene predominantly used as a monomer for production of wide range is polymers and copolymers to produce synthetic rubber mainly used for automobile tires & tubes. Other applications include shoe soles & heels, gaskets, etc. Polybutadiene Rubber (PBR) Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) It also used as copolymer to produce thermoplastic resin with wide applications in pipes, musical instruments, toys, automotive parts, protective gears, etc. Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styerene (ABS) HPL is a leading manufacturer of 1-3 Butadiene with capacity of 75 KTPA using Extractive Distillation process (BASF technology with licence from Lurgi, Germany) from Crude C4 stream. HPL Butadiene Quality USP is : High Purity > 99.5 % by wt Low Dimer Butadiene is sold both in domestic markets mainly in West & North India and also exported from Haldia port to South East Asia & Far East Asia markets.

Cyclopentane

Cyclopentane is a flammable alicyclic hydrocarbon with chemical formula C5H10. Cyclopentane is mainly used as “Green” blowing agent in Polyurethane foam used for thermal insulation in refregerators, freezers, water heaters, insulated pipes & roofs, construction panels, etc. Cyclopentane is also used in the manufacture of synthetic resins & rubber adhesives and as an gasoline additive. Cyclopentane being halogen free compound is environment friendly with Zero-Ozone Depletion Potential and thus is fast replacing Chloro Fluoro Carbon (CFC ) applications in refrigeration and thermal insulation. HPL with 10 KTPA capacity is the largest producer of Cyclopentane in the world with licence from IFP, France. HPL Cyclopentane Quality USP is : High purity, 97 wt % Min Non-traceable Benzene content Environment friendly (Zero Ozone Depletion Potential) High performance due high insulation efficiency & excellent adhesion Cyclopentane is sold both in domestic markets mainly in West India and also exported from Haldia port to Europe, Middle East & South East Asia.
