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 />

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 />
