'Basic survey project for joint implementation, etc.' for revamp study on feedstock change and energy saving in India fertilizer plants

Abstract

Surveys and discussions were given on energy conservation and reduction of global warming gas emission in a fertilizer plant in Goa, India. Zuari Industries Limited in Goa manufactures ammonia from naphtha, and urea from ammonia and CO2. The surveys discussed the reduction of manufacturing cost by changing the raw material of this factory, naphtha into natural gas and by using the energy saving processes, as well as the reduction of CO2 gas emission. In the ammonia manufacturing, discussions were given on adoption of the MDEA process in CO2 transfer, the Kellogg Advanced Ammonia Process (KAAP) converter in synthesizing ammonia, and a high-pressure condensate stripper, and on improvements in the compressor and turbine. In the urea synthesis, adoption of the ACES21 process of Toyo Engineering was discussed. As a result of the discussions, the annual energy saving effect was calculated as 382,883 Gcal in the ammonia plant, and 174,174 Gcal in the urea plant, which corresponds to conservation of crude oil of 1,114,100 tons cumulatively for twenty years. In addition, the reduction of global warming gas emission was calculated as 4,902,780 t-CO2 . (NEDO)
