COAL CHEMICAL PLANT

(OBJECTIVES)
To clean Coke Oven Gas for using it as fuel
for heating Coke Oven Batteries and for
other consumers.
COAL CHEMICAL PLANT
(CLEANING PROCESS)
Co-gas coming out of Batteries has Tar,
Ammonia,Crude Benzol and gas rich in
Hydrogen and methane. The Tar ,Ammonia
and Crude Benzol is removed from Co-gas
before it is used as fuel in batteries.
COAL CHEMICAL PLANT
(CLEANING PROCESS- WHERE & HOW)
The Tar, ammonia and crude benzol is removed in Gas
Cleaning Plant (RECOVERY PLANT).

Tar is removed and sent to tar plant for the distillation to
get tar products.

Ammonia liquor is separated from tar and pumped back to
gas collecting mains.

Excess ammonical liquor is pumped to ammonia columns
for further treatment. After treatment it is sent to MBC.

COAL CHEMICAL PLANT
(CLEANING PROCESS- WHERE & HOW)
Ammonia is removed in gas cleaning unit
(Ammonium Sulphate plant). The gas
passed through the 4-5% Sulphuric Acid
Bath. Ammonia in Co-gas Reacts with acid
and forms ammonium Sulphate.

Crude Benzol is removed in Benzol
Recovery unit of gas Cleaning Plant.

TAR DISTILLATION PLANT
TAR DISTILLATION SECTION

Tar received from FGC unit to TOS unit.
From TOS tar is pumped to Decanter in TDS unit.
After removal of water from decanter moisture
content in tar reduces to 5-6%.
Tar is heated in the first stage of furnace to a
temp.of120-150 deg C and sent to first stage
evaporator.
In first stage evaporator complete de-
moisturisation is done.

TAR DISTILLATION
SECTION

Tar after first stage evaporator is again heated in II
stage of furnace to a temp. of 330-350deg C.
In the second stage evaporator oil fraction is
separated from top of second stage evaporator(35-
40%) and soft pitch from bottom.
The oil fraction is sent to the distillation column,
where individual oil products are tapped , cooled
collected in storage tanks.

TAR DISTILLATION SECTION
THE PRODUCTS FROM DISTILLATION
COLUMN ARE AS FOLLOWS:-
Light oil
Phenol Fraction.
Naphthalene fraction.
Wash oil.
Anthracene oil-I & II.


PITCH COOLING AND
LOADING AREA
The soft pitch from second stage evaporator is sent
to reactors, where it is subjected to areation to
increase the softening point to get the Alluminium
grade pitch.
Al. grade Pitch is cooled in dumping yards. It cut,
bagged and dispatched to customers.
Part of the soft pitch is used to make PCM by
mixing it with Anthracene & Wash Oil mixture
NAFC

Naphthalene fraction is further processed in
NAFC unit to make Hot Pressed
Napthalene(35-40Kg Cakes). The cakes are
crushed, bagged and dispatched to customers.
Drained Naphthalene oil is also produced in
NAFC unit. It will have around 35-40%
Naphthalene.


TAR & OIL STORAGE
(OBJECTIVES)
To store crude Coal tar and Oil
products.

To despatch Tar, PCM and Oil
products to customers by road / rail
tankers
