Fluorination
|
|
Sajjan India is developing specialty products that involve FLUORINATION. Fluorination involves the competent handling & storage of the main fluorinating agents - Hydrogen Fluoride & Potassium Fluoride - as well as special equipment such as Hastelloy Reactors.
|
1) |
RAW MATERIALS : |
|
Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) and Potassium Fluoride (KF) are commodity products which are produced in bulk in India & freely available from several producers. Hydrogen Fluoride is packed in cylinders of various sizes & potassium fluoride is packed in drums.
|
2) |
EQUIPMENT : We have installed the following Hastelloy equipment
|
|
|
- 2 ltr Hastelloy Autoclave - Lab
- 50 ltr & 1000 ltr Reactors - Pilot Plant
- 10000 ltr Reactor - Plant
- 10000 ltr APND - Plant
|
|
We have started trials with Halex reaction. We have also budgeted for several more Hastelloy reactors based on the opportunities that we see for fluorinated compounds. Other reactors, for pre-fluorinated & post-fluorination processes, such as Glass lined and stainless steel reactors are already installed.
|
3) |
STORAGE & HANDLING : |
|
We have several decades of experience in handling & managing hazardous chemical substances. Our safety record is excellent. We manufacture several products that involve equally hazardous chemicals such as - Hydrogen Chloride Gas (5mt/day), Chlorine Gas(20mt/day), Hydrogen Gas(3000 nm3/day), Phosphorous oxychloride (40 mt/day), Phosphorous trichloride (15 mt/day). The facility that we will have to handle Hydrogen Fluoride will be as per best industry standards.
|
4) |
OTHER ADVANTAGES : |
|
Our expertise in CHLORINATION & BROMINATION as important chemical reactions for the Agrochemical industry is well established. Since FLUORINATION is involved in further up streaming in several such products, we could develop & supply such products under "one window" which would lead to considerable saving in cost & time for our customers.
