(iv) Size and Magnitude of Operation

M/s Parnami Buildcon Pvt. Ltd. is proposing to setup a manufacturing unit of Formaldehyde with the capacity of production of 300 M.T per day at Village Ismalia, Tehsil Sampla, District Rohtak, Haryana. The estimated project cost is about 1490 Lacs.

(v) Project description with process details: (a schematic diagram/flowchart layout, components of the project) Manufacturing Process Formaldehyde is the oxidation/dehydrogenation product of methanol with oxygen in the presence of silver catalyst. A fixed quantity of methanol and water is introduced into a mixer (F03) from where this mixture is taken into an evaporator (F04).

M/s Parnami Buildcon Pvt. Ltd. Proposed Project for Manufacturing of Formaldehyde 300 M.T per day at Village Ismalia, Tehsil Sampla, District Rohtak,Haryana

PRE FEASIBILITY REPORT Pre-heated Air is also introduced into the evaporator and Pre-heated Recycled Tail Gas is fed just above the evaporator through a Tail Gas Mixer (F06). A temperature of 70oC is maintained by heating with steam through the steam coil (F05) which facilitates the evaporation of methanol. The air, methanol vapour, water molecules and Tail Gas mixture is then further heated to 120ºC. in the Super heater (F07).

REACTION

The superheated vapour is then introduced into the Reactor I (F09) and then comes down to the Catalyst bed in Reactor II (F10) where, in presence of silver catalyst maintained at a temperature of 650º.C, the oxidation/dehydrogenation reaction takes place as per the following chemistry: CH3OH = HCHO + H2 Endothermic Reaction H2 + 1/2 O2 = H2 O Exothermic Reaction CH3OH + 1/2 O2 = HCHO + H2O Net Exothermic Reaction

Several side reactions also happen to produce formic acid, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. The endeavor is to minimize these side reactions. The catalyst bed temperature is maintained at around 640 to 650º C by controlling the composition of Reactor feed gas.

The Reaction is net Exothermic. In the Reactor II (F10) itself, which is also a waste heat boiler, the temperature of the product gasses is brought down to 180º C and then further cooled to about 95ºC in the Reboiler(F11). This is achieved by circulating the Solution in the Evaporator in the Reboiler which cools down the Product gasses to about 95º c and itself is heated up to 70º C thus saving on energy.

With Tail Gas Recycle incorporated in the design, Surplus steam to the extent of 200-250 kg/ton of produced Formaldehyde is available for export which can be used in the heating of the Resin Kettle.

ABSORPTION The reaction gas containing Formaldehyde, unreacted Methanol and water vapour is then directed to Absorption Column-I (F16) and the Formaldehyde gases are absorbed by the circulating Formaldehyde solution. The absorption of Formaldehyde is an exothermic process and the circulating Formaldehyde solution is cooled in the Plate Heat Exchanger (HE1). A part of the circulation is taken out as product.

The Absorber-I is packed with Structure Packing with a high efficiency of contact and coupled with the efficient cooling system provided results in very efficient absorption of the Formaldehyde in the absorber. The unabsorbed gas from the Absorption Column-I is absorbed in the Absorption Column (F17) which is packed with Pall Rings. Finally, the gas is washed with pure Chilled DM water at the upper 13

PRE FEASIBILITY REPORT part of the Column-III (F18), provided with bubble cap trays, and then exhausted as tail gas to the atmosphere. The Exhaust gases now contain only Nitrogen, Hydrogen, Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide and traces of Formaldehyde and Methanol which leads out to the atmosphere. The waste gas containing Hydrogen can be burnt or incinerated to generate steam for use in the Resin section if so desired.

Detailed Process

The Formaldehyde is manufactured as per the following process for the proposed project:

Unit Process:

The basic raw material for the manufacturing of Formaldehyde is Methanol. Controlled oxidation of methanol forms Formaldehyde as per the following reaction

CH3OH + ½ O2 HO + H20

8. PROJECT SCHEDULE & COST ESTIMATES

(i) Likely date of start of Construction and likely date of completion (Implementation schedule):

The construction of the project shall commence soon after receipt of Environment Clearance from MoEF&CC and CTE from HSPCB. The project execution schedule shall be another 18 months after getting project clearance/ environment clearance.

(ii) Estimated Project Cost

The capital cost of the project is worked out to be Rs 1490 lacs including preliminary & pre-operative expenses, working capital requirement and inclusive of cost of land as presented in the table below: Table 1.5 : Total Cost

S.NO Total Fixed Cost Cost (Rs. in lakhs)

1 Plant Shed 120.00 2 Raw Material and Finished product storage 110.00 3 Plant & Machinery 1010.00 4 Other Charges 250.00

Total 1490.00

Profit and Cost Benefit Analysis Profit and cost benefit analysis can be estimated as the Raw Material cost per kg of product Methanol Consumption per kg product = 0.450 kg

Price of Methanol = Rs 20 per kg

Cost of Methanol = Rs 20 x 0.450 = Rs 9.00 per kg

Sale price of Formaldehyde = Rs 12 per kg

Gross Contribution per kg = Rs 2 per kg Processing charges per kg = Rs 1.5 per kg

Daily Contribution = Rs 0.45 x(0.45 x 300,000) = Rs 135000 lacs

Monthly Contribution = 135000 x 30 (days) = Rs 40.5 lacs

The manufacturing of Formaldehyde is economically viable. ------

PRE FEASIBILITY REPORT

9. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL (Final Recommendation)

Formaldehyde is used by ply wood and sun mica laminated sheets manufacturers, who make adhesives like Urea Formaldehyde and Phenol Formaldehyde products. The commercial production of Formaldehyde is manufactured from oxidation- dehydrogenation using a silver catalyst involving either the complete or incomplete conversion of methanol.

The project is envisaged to meet the demand supply gap in the domestic market, as the gap is created due to increase in growth of Formaldehyde for meeting increased demand of PLYWOOD and SUN MICA industries.

So considering the above, the M/s Parnami Buildcon Pvt. Ltd. is proposing to setup a manufacturing unit of Formaldehyde with the capacity of production of 300 M.T per day at Village Ismalia, Tehsil Sampla, District Rohtak, Haryana.
