B. KOCHI REFINERY<br />
1. Efforts, in brief, made towards technology absorption, adaptation and innovation<br />
Kochi Refinery has undertaken the following projects to obtain the benefits of the latest technological<br />
developments and advances:<br />
• Revamping of Diesel Hydro De-Sulfurisation Unit (DHDS) to facilitate processing of high sulfur VGO for<br />
producing MS of BSII specification. VGO desulfurisation would also result in improved product pattern in<br />
Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit (FCCU) operation.<br />
• Revamping of FCCU by incorporating advanced Feed Injection Technology, Riser Termination Device, Stripper<br />
Packing from M/s.Stone & Webster, USA for improving FCCU yield.<br />
• Bitumen Emulsion Unit was set up with technology from ENH Engineering A/S, Denmark, incorporating<br />
Colloidal mill for production of different grades of Bitumen Emulsion.<br />
2. Benefits derived as a result of the above efforts, e.g. product improvement, cost reduction, product development,<br />
import substitution, etc.<br />
• Production of MS of BSII, Euro III ( Eqv. ) specification<br />
• Yield improvement in FCCU<br />
• Reduction of overall SO emissions from the Refinery and manufacture of superior quality middle distillates<br />
•<br />

Production of different grades of Bitumen Emulsion<br />
3. Information regarding technology imported during last five years reckoned from the beginning of the financial<br />
year:<br />
(a) Technology Imported: Year of import<br />
• FCC – Feed Injection Technology, Riser termination Device, Packed Stripper from<br />
M/s. Stone & Webster, USA for yield improvement. 2003<br />
• Colloidal Mill for production of Bitumen Emulsion from M/s. ENH Engineering, Denmark. 2004<br />
• Process technology for blocked out mode operation of VGO in DHDS from 2003<br />
M/s. Axens, France.<br />
• Technology for revamp of FCCU from M/s. Stone & Webster, USA 2003<br />
• Technology from M/s. ENH Engineering, Denmark for production of Bitumen Emulsion. 2004<br />
