Soil classification

SOIL: The soils of the district are formed from the Deccan trap which is the predominating rock formation of this district with small out-crops of laterite at a few places in the Poladpur taluka and in the Matheran hills. Various types of these soils are marked out as

19 Prefeasibility Report Prasol Chemicals limited, Additional MIDC Mahad, Maharashtra per topographical situation and location. They are generally grouped as forest, varkas, rice, khar or salt, coastal alluvial and laterite soils. Forest soils:

These soils are not used for agricultural purposes but yield valuable forest products such as teak-wood, hirda (myrobalan), beheda, pepper, etc. However, these soils are heavily eroded due to grazing and cutting of the forest trees. Varkas soils:

These soils are located just below the forest soils all along the steeper slopes. They are shallow in depth, which varies only between a foot and a foot and a half, heavily eroded and sandy in texture and yellowish red to yellowish grey in colour with acidic reaction. They are poor in organic matter and nitrogen and possess very little retentivity of moisture. They yieldkharif millets but the production thereof could be increased with the addition of bulky manures, lime and nitrogenous and phosphatic fertilisers. Rice soils.

The district is the second largest producer of rice in the Maharashtra State. The region is peculiarly terraced and, though the small strips in between the two terraces are levelled, it is difficult to get even a few gunthas of land in one piece in a levelled condition. The depth varies between two and six feet. They are loamy in texture, yellowish or reddish grey in colour, neutral in reaction and almost devoid of lime. They are formed from the trap rock from the Sahyadri ranges under heavy rainfall and humid climatic conditions. The linear response of rice to the application of nitrogenous, phosphatic and potassic fertilisers is observed in these soils. Addition of bulky manures in these soils is also found to be advantageous from the point of view of yield. There are some patches of manat soils in taluka which are rich in clay and silt and which become stiff and hard when dry. Khar soils.

These soils are situated on the flat, levelled land near the sea at the point of creeks formed due to the rivers. They are flat clay to clay loam in texture and reddish or yellowish grey in colour. These soils contain hardly more than one per cent of soluble salts. These soils are formed due to the deposition of salts by the sea or from lands reclaimed from the sea. Large tracts of land are going out of cultivation due to the ingress of the sea and, in order to reclaim these lands, the Government have formed the Khar Land Development Board which has undertaken ambitious projects of the reclamation of khar lands. Coastal alluvium soils.

These soils are found all along the coast and at places where there are no creeks. They are deep soils developed on flat land and loamy in texture with reddish grey colour. They are devoid of clay fraction or humus and are open in nature. The profile is difficult to differentiate and is excessively drained. Calcium carbonate is found in abundance throughout the profile but calcium has not entered the clay complex. The sub-soil water

20 Prefeasibility Report Prasol Chemicals limited, Additional MIDC Mahad, Maharashtra level is only from ten to fifteen feet deep. The salt contents of the well water are higher in the proximity of the sea; but due to excellent drainage, its use has not produced any deleterious effects. The soils are almost neutral or slightly on the alkaline side of neutrality. Good garden crops like , areca-nut, plantain, etc., are grown in these soils, depending upon the availability of water. Laterite soils.

Out-crops of laterite rock are observed amongst the Sahyadri ranges amidst the trap rock mainly at Matheran and in the Poladpur taluka. These soils mostly occur on the mountain peaks. They are coarser in texture, wherever there are no forests. They are yellowish-red in colour and shallow in depth and yield coarse millets and niger. The heavy rains in the mountainous regions thoroughly leach the soils turning them acidic in reaction and devoid of calcium carbonate. They are rich in sesquioxides, the ratio of silica to sesquioxides being less than two. But they are generally poor in exchangeable bases or in fertility constituents. However, the soils from the forest region are well- supplied with nitrogen and organic matter.

Climate data from secondary sources

Climate:

Mahad comes in Raigad district of Maharashtra. The climate of this district is typical of that on the west coast of India, with plentiful and regular seasonable rainfall, oppressive weather in the hot months and high humidities throughout the year. The summer season from March to May is followed by the south-west season from June to September. October and November form the post-monsoon or the retreating monsoon season. The period from December to February is the cold season. Rainfall:

The district has a network of eleven rain gauge stations with records extending to 82 years for most of the stations. The south-west monsoon commences by about the first week of June and the rains continue till about the beginning of October. The average annual rainfall for the district as a whole is 3,028.9 mm. (119.25"). The rainfall increases rapidly from the coast Howards the on the eastern border of the district. In the coastal strip the annual rainfall decreases from south to north. and at the northern end of the coast get annually 2,072.3 mm. (81.58") and 2,080.8 mm. (81.92") of rain, respectively, Matheran gets as much as 5,167.5 mm. (203.45") of rain annually. Nearly 95 per cent, of the annual rainfall is received during the south-west monsoon months, and the rainfall in October forms the major portion of the rest. July is the month with the heaviest rainfall, the same being 38 per cent of the annual rainfall.

22 Prefeasibility Report Prasol Chemicals limited, Additional MIDC Mahad, Maharashtra

Temperature:

Being a coastal district the diurnal (daily) and seasonal variations of temperature are not large. The period from March to May is one of increasing temperatures. May is the hottest month with a mean daily maximum temperature at 31.7°C (89.1°F) and the mean daily minimum temperature at 26.4°C (79.5°F). Fresh breezes from the sea relieve the oppressive heat particularly in the coastal regions in the afternoons. The onset of the south-west monsoon early in June brings down the temperatures slightly. After the withdrawal of the south-west monsoon by the end of September the day temperatures increase slightly and the weather in October and November is almost like the summer months. In the period from December to February the weather is cooler than in the post-monsoon months. Humidity:

The air is humid throughout the year. Relative humidity is on an average over 80 per cent during the south-west monsoon season. In the rest of the year the relative humidity is between 65 per cent and 75 per cent. Cloudiness:

During the south-west monsoon season skies are heavily clouded to overcast. In May and October the clouding is moderate. Clear or very lightly clouded skies are common in the rest of the year. Winds:

Winds are very strong and blow from west or south-west during monsoon season. During the period from October to December winds are generally moderate but sometimes strong in October and blow from directions between north-east and south- east. In the three months from January to March the winds continue to be moderate and are predominantly from directions between north and east. In April while there is a slight strengthening of wind, the direction is variable. In May there is a further strengthening of winds and the directions are between south-west and north-west. Special weather phenomena:

In association with cyclonic storms in the Arabian sea in the post-monsoon months and to a lesser extent in May, the district experiences very strong winds, sometimes reaching gale force, particularly very near the coast and also heavy widespread rain. Occasionally these storms may cross the coast in the northern part of the district and cause heavy damage. Thunderstorms occur in April and May and just before the onset of the monsoon and in the late September to the middle of November.

 Zinc Diorgano Dithiophosphate (ZDDP)

Manufacturing Process Zinc Diorgano-DithioPhosphate (ZDDP) is manufactured in two major steps. Step 1: Synthesis Step: The synthesis of Oxo-Alcohols and Phosphorus Pentasulphide takes place to form a Di-Alkyl Dithiophosphate Acid with release of Hydrogen Sulphide gas. In this step, the oxo-alcohols are charged into the reactor, stirred and heated. Phosphorus Pentasulphide is added to this mass with continuous stirring which results in the evolving of gases which are to be absorbed in the 2 stage caustic scrubber.

Step 2: Neutralization Step: The neutralization of the acid is carried out with zinc oxide. Once neutralization is complete, the product mass is dried. Filter aid is added and the batch is filtered to obtain the product of desired quality. The residue is then removed from the filter in the form of solid cakes. The ZDDP product is then stored, packed and dispatched as required.

 DATC (DETA/DETC/DMTC)

Manufacturing Process

Dialkyl Thiophosphoryl Chloride (DATC) is produced using a series of Unit Processes and Operations. The steps involved in the production process are as given below: Manufacture of DATA; Chlorination; Hydrolysis; Distillation of crude DATC; By-product Sulphur Recovery Step 1: Manufacture of Dialkyl Thiophosphoric Acid (DATA) DATA is manufactured by batch process in a CSTR. Predetermined quantity of phosphorus pentasulphide is charged into the reactor containing a measured quantity of Acid as heel. Alcohol is then added in a controlled manner maintaining reaction mass temperature. Reaction is exothermic in nature with evolution of hydrogen sulphide gas which is absorbed in caustic solution in a packed bed scrubber system to form sodium hydrogen sulphide as by-product.

Step 2: Chlorination

Prefeasibility Report Prasol Chemicals limited, Additional MIDC Mahad, Maharashtra

In this step, chlorine gas is purged into the Acid in control manner. The reaction mass obtained at the end of this step is a mixture of Dialkyl Thiophosphoryl Chloride, Sulphur mono chloride and Hydrochloric Acid which is then purified in the subsequent steps

Step 3: Hydrolysis For washing of crude product, water hydrolysis method is preferred. After addition and maintaining the temperature, first wash of aqueous is to be used for HCL preparation. After washing, organic material is drained from reactor along with washing aqueous mass. This mass (high COD) is then separated and sent to the ETP for further treatment. The Crude free of the washing aqueous mass is then sent for purification.

Step 4: Distillation of Crude DATC In this process hydrolyzed mass of crude product is purified by removing high boiling impurities to get DATC product.

Step 5: By-product Sulphur Recovery In this step, the sulphur obtained from the hydrolyzed mass of crude product is purified and made suitable for sale or reuse. Reaction involved and process flow diagram is shown below: Part 1 – Formation of DATA SH

 Manufacturing of Hydrogenated Compounds It is proposed to set up a multipurpose Hydrogenation Facility for the production of Speciality/ Fine Chemicals with applications as Speciality Solvents, Rubber Chemical Intermediate, Lubricant Intermediate, Flavours and Fragrances, Polymers, etc. The multipurpose facility would be able to produce the products on a campaign basis. Initially the raw material is pumped from the feed tank into the reactor which operates at a preset temperature and pressure. The catalyst is fed into the reactor before the batch is initiated. The hydrogen gas in then introduced into the reactor where the hydrogenation reaction takes place. The contents of the reactor are thoroughly mixed. After the reaction is completed, the reaction mass is emptied into a storage tank and a new batch is charged into the loop reactor. The reaction mass from the tank is then passed through a filter system where the catalyst entrained in the product is recycled. For some of the products a purification system based on distillation and special filtration is used. The product is then pumped into a tank from where the purified product can be packed and shipped. Process Reaction (Sample)

CH2COCH2C(CH3)2OH + H2 Catalyst CH2CHOHCH2C(CH3)2OH Di-acetone Alcohol (DAA) Hexylene Glycol (HG)
