据安迅思孟买3月31日消息，印度Tamilnadu石油产品有限公司(TPL)计划扩大其直链烷基苯(LAB)和烧碱装置的产能，并在其位于泰米尔纳德邦南部Manali的工厂内新建一套丙烯回收装置(PRU)，作为其扩能计划的一部分。
该公司在3月30日提交给孟买证券交易所的一份文件中表示，扩能项目预计耗资约43.5亿卢比(合5920万美元)。
该公司计划将其LAB装置的产能从目前的12万吨/年增加到14.5万吨/年。该项目将耗资24亿卢比，在获得所有监管部门批准后24个月内投产。
TPL还计划投资16.5亿卢比对其烧碱装置进行现代化改造，把该装置的产能从目前的150吨/天提高到250吨/天，在获得所有监管部门批准后18个月内投产。
TPL还将新建一套2.1万吨/年的丙烯回收装置，预计投资为3亿卢比。该装置将满足其1.6万吨/年环氧丙烷(PO)装置的原料需求。TPL表示：“丙烯回收装置的剩余产量将根据市场情况在国内或全球市场销售。” 丙烯回收装置计划在获得监管部门批准后的12-18个月内建成投产。
TPL在声明中表示，扩能将帮助公司满足印度国内市场对LAB和烧碱日益增长的需求，预计国内市场每年将增长约4%。

India’s TPL plans LAB, caustic soda expansion
India’s Tamilnadu Petroproducts Ltd (TPL) plans to increase the capacity of its linear alkyl benzene (LAB) and caustic soda plants and set up a new propylene recovery unit (PRU) at its complex at Manali in southern Tamil Nadu state as part its expansion plans, it said.
The expansion project is estimated to cost around Indian Rupees (Rs) 4.35bn ($59.2m), it said in a filing to the Bombay Stock Exchange on 30 March.
The company plans to increase the capacity at its LAB plant to 145,000 tonnes/year from 120,000 tonnes/year currently. The project will cost Rs2.4bn and will be commissioned within 24 months of receiving all the regulatory approvals, it said.
TPL also plans to invest Rs1.65bn to modernise its caustic soda unit which will increase the plant’s capacity from the current 150 tonnes/day to 250 tonnes/day. The expanded capacity is expected to come online within 18 months of receiving the statutory clearances, TPL said.
TPL is also setting up a new 21,000 tonnes/year PRU unit at an estimated cost of Rs 300m. This plant will cater to the feedstock requirements of its 16,000 tonnes/year propylene oxide (PO) plant. “The surplus production would be sold in the domestic or global market based on market conditions,” it said. The company plans to bring the new PRU unit online within 12-18 months of receiving regulatory approvals.
The expanded plants will help TPL meet the increasing demand for LAB and caustic soda in the domestic market which is expected to grow by about 4% annually, it said in its statement.
