The article discusses emerging business models for global chemical industries. It notes that chemical companies are no longer operating with strict compartmentalization and are more willing to cooperate or compete depending on region and product. Companies also increasingly collaborate on research and development rather than duplicating efforts. There is a greater focus on core competencies rather than unrelated diversification. Trading houses are also gaining recognition and specialization rather than being seen as less important. Certification and environmental compliance are also growing concerns for chemical companies due to increasing consumer awareness.

TALK OF THE MONTH


URGENT NEED TO FOCUS ON
AGRO CHEMICAL INDUSTRY
Government of India has once again
increased the price of petrol, which
obviously indicates that it is clueless
about the strategies for maintaining
the price of petrol and other petroleum
fuel in India.
The Indian chemical Industries should
realize that such conditions only point
to the grim ground realities and it
would be a calculated risk to build the
future chemical industries in India
largely based on petro chemical
feedstock. There is urgent need to
focus growth plans of chemical
industries in India on more appropriate
lines.
With regard to petroleum based fuel, there have been number of suggestions to
the Government of India in recent times, to develop alternative and appropriate
fuel sources for the country. Obviously, the jatropha bio fuel and algae based
bio fuel are some of the areas, where there are huge futuristic possibilities. But
the challenge of exploiting these appropriate and promising resources can be
achieved, only by initiating and implementing short term and long term strategic
plans with well conceived research and development programmes and schedules,
in a sustained manner.
It is sad that the Government of India has failed to give any lead to the country
or frame appropriate policy measures in tackling the impending fuel crisis. As a
result, the country remains helpless in tackling this grave problem of ever
increasing petroleum price scenario.
As a traditional agro based economy, India has to necessarily look inward to
work out its appropriate development strategy, instead of copying the pattern of
growth of developed countries and linking the future of Indian chemical
industries to petro based sector.
India has a lot to learn from Brazil, which has been relentlessly exploiting its
potential for producing sugar cane for developing ethanol based fuel and ethanol
based derivative chemicals. While India need not adopt the exact plans that
Brazil has charted for itself, certainly the initiative of Brazil in finding appropriate
growth model should be an eye opener and bench mark for India.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

URGENT NEED TO FOCUS ON AGRO CHEMICAL INDUSTRY


There is strong case to shift the priorities and reorient the future growth profile
of Indian chemical industries based on agro chemicals rather than petro
chemicals. Combination of agro chemical industries with agricultural industry
would be the elegant method of combining the twin advantages to meet the
larger need of India.
India being a tropical country with different climatic zones, it has been possible
to cultivate varieties of agricultural crops in the country . There are possibilities
of producing many value added chemical products from the agricultural crops in
a viable manner, which can compete with the synthetic chemicals now producied
from petroleum based feedstock.
Apart from the increase in the cost of production and price of petro chemical
products, environmental issues arising out of synthetic chemicals have also been
a matter of grave concern for user sector around the world. Under the
circumstances, the agro chemicals produced from natural sources are bound to
be viewed as eco friendly, apart from being appropriate to the Indias needs and
strength.
Unfortunately, many of the potential valued based agro chemicals are being
produced in the country only in small quantity or not at all produced in India at
present, which amount to missing investment opportunities in the field.
India still have huge potentials for producing many chemicals based on agro
products such as cane molasses, maize /tapiaco / starch , castor etc. In the case
to several molasses / starch based
chemicals, India entirely imports its
requirement of derivative products such as L-lysine, glutamic acid, citric acid etc.
In the case of herbs\medicinal plants, India has huge traditional knowledge and
enormous opportunities. Several herbal drugs have been developed for the
difficult to treat diseases such as cancer, jaundice etc. based on Indian herbs.
Unfortunately, Indian herbal industry is now at the cross roads and is lacking
integrated herbal management practices that combine agricultural management,
technology practices, application development, product certification and trading.
While a lot of discussions have taken place in governmental / non governmental
level about the potentials for exploiting the investment opportunities in the
herbal sector, they have not been translated into practice adequately.
There are of course, other valuable agricultural products such as jojoba,
jatropha, algae etc where India has unique tropical advantages but nothing
worthwhile have been achieved so far.
Obviously, efforts towards developing and optimizing the technology for the
production of agro chemicals appropriate to the Indian conditions, have not been
put forth adequately. Certainly, it is evident that there is lack of focus in
requisite measures to boost agro chemicals production in India, which can prove
costly in the coming years in view of the uncertainties associated with the petro
chemical products.

EMERGING BUSINESS MODEL


FOR GLOBAL CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES
It is now increasingly being realised by chemical industries all over the
world that the business model for any organization can not be a
permanent model but has to be changed constantly, depending upon the
changing technologies, competitive landscape , as well as strength and
weakness of the individual organization.

There was a time when chemical industries were operating with water tight
compartments and viewing the competitors as
if they were enemies.
However, these days, the managements have become more pragmatic and
matured and do not hesitate to co operate with one organization in some
region and compete with the same organization in another region, even for
the same product.
It is no more uncommon to see the
competitors collaborating in research
and development projects and sharing
their expertise in different areas to
optimize the research efforts to avoid
unnecessary work and shorten the
target days for the completion of
research and development efforts.
There
was
time
when
unrelated
diversifications were freely indulged in
by chemical industries. We do not hear
anymore of such trends in a big way.
There is greater focus on the core areas
amongst the chemical industries, who
would like to dwell deep into the areas of
specialization rather than spreading their
net wide, that could result in dilution of
efforts .
Another significant development in recent times is the recognition gained by
trading houses, which are no more considered as of lesser importance in the
over all chemical industrial activities.
The trading has now become as much specialized affair as manufacturing
and the dependence of the trading houses and manufacturing organizations
on each other for the achievement of progress and growth have now become
total. Trading houses and manufacturing organizations now have developed
great respect for each other.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

EMERGING BUSINESS MODEL FOR GLOBAL CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES


Certification issues and environmental stipulations have also
gained
considerable importance due to increasing concern and awareness of the
consumers about ecological issues, that directly and indirectly have
compelled the chemical industries all over the world to pay greater attention
to the eco friendly operations and product obsolescence possibilities.
With the countries in Asia and Middle East region making great strides in
chemical industries by way of capacity creation and the market steadily
growing in these region, the western based multi national companies have
now realized that without participating in the growth profile of these regions,
they will not be able to hold their market share. As a result, multi national
companies are inevitably working out new management methods, approach
and philosophy appropriate to the need of the regions in the Asia Pacific ,
Middle East and Africa.
Finally, responsible care is another emerging subject that the chemical
industries think that they need to focus to win the consumers confidence and
the market good will.
With such developments in the last decade, which are likely to be further fine
tuned in the coming years, global chemical industries have to continuously
re evolve and optimize the business model and improve them constantly in
tune with the developments across the world. This has become a pre
condition to stay in the business.

NEED FOR INTELLIGENCE MECHANISM


TO PREDICT PRICE RISE IN INDIA
An intelligent mechanism that exists
in Europe, Canada and Australia
could be replicated in India to
moderate wild swings in food and
vegetable prices and offer crucial
forecast on shortages and price rise.
It appears that fluctuations in food
and vegetable prices is due to real
mismatch between demand and
supply.
While the per-capita income is growing by 7% in India , agriculture growth in
India has been close to only 3%. Even a 4% growth is considered very high.
Further , the agriculture infrastructure in India is very rudimentary.
Marketing and communication channel are weak, which help the trader to
take advantage of the price differences.
Price fluctuations thus get
exaggerated. There are also supply imbalances in regions and time, as for
crop cycles in India are concerned.
For instance, during the peak harvest season in April last year in
Maharashtra, farmers were reported to be throwing onions on the road due
to steep fall in price .
As far as organized retail is concerned, it is contributing to the price rise but
only in the short-term. However, in the medium term, organized retail is
good and encourages farmers to increase their volumes.
The government should think of an intelligent intervention mechanism in
India (an agency through which the state works indirectly), that could
estimate and assess the crop cycles and control wild fluctuation in food and
vegetable prices.
It should be possible to think of a mechanism or a professional agency that
could foretell an impending shortage in the crop cycle. The mechanism can
also indicate the expected price rise due to this shortage. If the country can
have that kind of intelligence, it can use various instruments to moderate the
wild swings in prices.
In spite of the existing supply bottlenecks, an intelligent intervention can
eliminate these price fluctuations to some extent through time and space.

PRICE INCREASE OF FERTILIZERS


AS THE GOVERNMENT MODIFIES PRICING POLICY
Nutrient based subsidy regime for phosphate, potash & complex fertilisers
Fertiliser companies have a lot to cheer from the nutrient based subsidy (NBS) regime for
phosphate, potash and complex fertilizers introduced in April, 2010 as it has resulted in
higher prices.
Farmers have started paying more for complex fertilizers in the newly introduced nutrient
based subsidy regime. Di ammonium phosphate (DAP), a complex fertilizer is now Rs.50 to
78 costlier per bag (each bag is 50 kgs). Most of the price rise has come in the last few
months and different companies are quoting different rates.
With prices of key raw materials such as phosphoric acid are on the rise, the difference
between the subsidy given by the government and the cost of production has gone up. This
has allowed producers of complex and other fertilizers under the NBS regime to recover
higher costs from farmers by jacking up prices.
Proposed NBS for urea
The price rise would be much higher if urea is brought under NBS.
Under the proposed NBS for urea, the concession payable per tonne to the farmer would be
fixed by the government as a percent of import parity prices, while the farm gate price would
be left open. This would allow the manufacturers to revise the selling price depending on the
market conditions.

Naphtha based fertilizer units


The proposed NBS (or decontrol of urea) would hit hard fertilizer manufacturers in south
India, who almost entirely use naphtha as the feedstock and would push up urea prices as
well. Besides, it would usher in huge profits for only a few gas based units in northern and
western India.
Under the existing new pricing scheme, naphtha based urea makers receive a subsidy of
Rs.20,000 per tonne and realize around Rs.5,300 per tonne from the market. Gas based
manufacturers get a subsidy of Rs.5,000 per tonne.
While the cost of production works out to Rs.25,000 per tonne for those who use naphtha as
the feedstock, it is just around Rs.9,000 for gas based units.
The proposed NBS for urea treats naphtha based and gas based units on an even keel and
given the wide disparity in production costs between the two , this mechanism would be
unreasonable.
NBS (for urea) will not work unless all he inputs are made of uniform price. The urea industry
is heterogeneous with different feedstock and even within gas based units, concession rates
vary widely depending on the source and price of gas. Hence, uniform prices under the NBS
would not be practical.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

PRICE INCREASE OF FERTILIZERS AS THE GOVERNMENT MODIFIES PRICING POLICY


Wind fall profit for gas based units
If the subsidy for urea is linked to the international parity price as proposed by NBS, there
would be a wind fall profit of more than $200 per tonne for gas based units and this has to be
borne by the farmer.
Fertiliser units in south India account for a majority of the naphtha based urea production of
around 20 lakh tonnes per annum in the country.
Need to support naphtha based fertilizer units
The government should implement the new pricing scheme that would allow naphtha based
fertilizer units to get additional subsidy of Rs.350 per tonne till fertilizer companies convert to
gas.

CHINA NOW DICTATING TERMS


IN THE WOLRD RARE EARTHS MARKET
Rare earths include lanthanum, dysprosium, cerium, gallium and yttrium are critical for
the development of clean-energy technology, such as lithium-ion batteries, wind power
generators and energy efficient lighting systems.
Dysprosium, used in high-temperature magnets in electric-drive vehicles, is expected to
face a critical shortage between 2012 and 2014. The metal is forecast to see a
significant demand increase, with supply remaining constrained, as dysprosium is found
in relatively small amounts in new Western mines. Other elements such as gallium carry
relatively low supply risk, as significant deposits exist outside China.
China is home to more than 95% of global rare earths production capacity, but holds
less than 40% of reserves. Earlier this year, China briefly embargoed the export of rare
earths to the U.S., Japan and Europe. The embargo prompted some companies
including Albemarle and W.R. Grace, to implement surcharges on products that use rare
earths.
A report by the U.S. Department of Energy says that USA could face shortages of rare
earth materials within the next fifteen years.
The main vulnerability to U.S. and global rare earths supply is Chinas dominance of
production of the metals.
The DOE report suggests increasing production in the U.S. and other countries,
developing technological alternatives to rare earths and recycling existing rare earths as
possible ways to ensure supply stability.
However, it identifies some major obstacles to enacting those policies. These include
the difficulty of opening a mine in the U.S., which, due to environmental clearing issues
and capital costs, can take upto 10 years from initial exploration to commercial
production. DOE also says that many USA based rare earths development firms are
small and face difficulties in obtaining the capital required to construct a new mine.

INDIAS DEPENDENCE ON FERTILIZER IMPORTS


India is the world's biggest importer of urea and di-ammonium phosphate
(DAP) and the second biggest importer of muriate of potash (MoP).
India imported close to 7 million tonnes of urea, 8 million tonnes of DAP
and 6 million tonnes of MoP in the current fiscal.
Mosaic Company , the world's second-largest potash producer, has forecast
that India will spend more on its fertilizer imports in future and the strong
demand and tight supply would drive prices up in international markets.

Phosphatic fertilisers
In a recent global fertilizer outlook, the Minnesota, US based firm said that India
is expected to see a 5% rise in the use of phosphatic fertilisers in 2011. Global
phosphate shipments will increase from 59 to 61 million tonnes in 2011,
according to the report.
Potash fertiliser
Mosaic said that India's appetite for potash would also increase, touching a
record 6 to 6.5 million tonnes in 2011. The country would be next only to Brazil,
which is projected to import 6.5 to 7 million tonnes of potash.
Global MoP shipments would climb to 53 to 56 million tonnes in 2011, on the
back of higher consumption by all importing markets including India, China, the
US and Brazil.
Price trend of fertilisers
While state run Indian companies clinched urea imports at $395 to $396 a tonne in
2010, the current landed cost of imported DAP is $620 to $630 a tonne and MoP is
around $370 a tonne.
Currently, DAP retails at Rs 9,950 per tonne, while MoP sells at Rs 5,055 a tonne.
Higher global price and tight supply would increase the pressure on the industry to
secure fertilzers (except urea, which is yet to be decanalised) at competitive import
price while keeping retail price on a tight leash.
The projections could force companies such as Coromandel International , Zuari
Industries and Tata Chemicals to hike price at the farm gate level. State-run firms
would also have to bear high cost of imports.
Despite an increase in urea imports and import prices, the price of the country's
most used fertiliser has gone up only by 10% at the farm gate level in the last eight
years.

OUTPUT FROM D-6 BLOCK


IN KRISHNA GODAVARI BASIN IN INDIA
A MATTER OF CONCERN
Concerns over gas output from the Dhirubhai-6(D-6 field) in Krishna
Godavari basin in India has been an issue facing Reliance Industries Ltd
(RIL).
Despite the higher expenditure, Reliances gas output from Dhirubhai-6 block
has fallen to about 55 million cubic metres a day (mmscmd ), well below the
target of 80 million cubic metres a day .
The current gas production is not only well below the intended peak rate of
80 mmscmd but also sequentially lower.
Reliance Industries is unlikely to ramp up its natural gas production from
current levels in the near term, in the absence of relevant regulatory
approvals for new development, technical limitations with existing wells and
long lead time for installing critical deepwater equipment.
As per the Production Sharing Contract with Govt. of India, Reliance
Industries which was awarded the field has to recover the cost of developing
the field from sale of gas and balance output, called profit petroleum, would
be shared between the government and the company.
The government would get the revenue generated from the sale of gas over
the life of the KG basin , after deducting the expenses incurred by the
operator, Reliance Industries in this case..
Move of Reliance Industries to increase its expenditure in developing the D-6
field in the Krishna-Godavari basin in India by over $6 billion, would
significantly reduce the Govt. of Indias share of revenue from the countrys
biggest gas field.
The Director General of Hydrocarbons and the Government of India approved
the additional capital expenditure from $2.4 billion to $8.8 billion between
September and December 2006.
Reliance Industries has drilled only 18 out of a total 50 wells. Importantly,
despite a huge increase in the investment , there is no commensurate
increase in gas production.
The Comptroller & Auditor General of India is auditing Dhirubhai-6 block in
the Krishna Godavari basin to assess whether the government's revenue has
been protected and if the costs have been inflated.

NUCLEAR WASTE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN FINLAND


Finland consumes nearly 17,000 units
of electric power per capita annually;
its share of nuclear electricity is
about 28 per cent. Though its nuclear
power programme is very modest
compared to that of U.S. or France.
it is far ahead in its universally
applauded plans for nuclear waste
management.
Finnish programme
Currently, Finland operates four
nuclear power reactors with a total
installed capacity of 2716 MWe. It
produces about 70 tonnes of spent
fuel annually. Finland has no plans to
reprocess the spent fuel.
Finland started its preliminary preparations for its nuclear waste management
shortly before the first reactors started operation 1n 1977-1978.
In 1978, the first lot of spent fuel entered the facility for interim storage at
Loviisa.
The Nuclear Energy Act 990/1987 passed by its Parliament stated that nuclear
waste generated in connection with or as a result of the use of nuclear energy in
Finland should handled, stored and permanently disposed of in Finland.
In 1983, Finland started screening of potential sites for spent fuel disposal.
Within the next four years, Finnish scientists started field research in five
municipalities for selecting the final disposal site.
In 2000, Olkiluoto was chosen. Finland plans to dispose of spent fuel in an
underground geological repository.
Posiva, a Finnish company which is entrusted with the job has drilled a
6.5 metre high, 5 m- wide and 5000 m long Okalo tunnel. It has removed over
100,000 cubic metre of rock.
The company successfully located the place where no one would ever be likely to
dig a deep hole later for exploiting minerals because the place is not mineralrich. The idea is to abandon forever, the mostly natural and partly engineered
underground repository after filling it.

NUCLEAR WASTE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN FINLAND


Canister design
After a few decades of interim storage, the levels radioactivity and heat of
spent fuel reduce to about 0.1 per cent of the original values.
It is then encapsulated in a cast iron insert which in turn is covered by a
5 cm thick copper canister. Each insert may carry up to 12 fuel bundles.
They will be placed in neatly bored holes a few metre apart in the
underground repository. The gaps between each canister and the hole will be
filled with bentonite clay, which swells by absorbing water.
This clay provides cushioning to the canister in case of geological movements
and ensures that there are no voids, through which water can enter and
corrode the container.
Finland hopes to start filling the repository by 2012 and completing it by
2120. They can cover the mouth of the tunnel and forget about it.
Canister integrity
Most of the radioactivity in the spent fuel is due to fission products. They
have a half life of about 30y. In 100,000 years, the radioactivity remaining in
the fuel will be negligible. Finnish scientists proved that 1.5 cm of copper
cladding would last over 100,000 years. Evidently, 5 cm of copper cladding
will be more than adequate.
During the period, an ice age may come and cover the area under 2-3 km of
ice. The pressure on the canister due to ice, tightly gripping bentonite clay
and ground water may equal that experienced by it at an ocean depth of
4.5 km. It was proved that the copper cylinders will withstand a pressure
three times that before failing.
Waste management cost is manageable. Finland collects a few percentage of
the electricity cost per unit of power to manage the waste and deposit it in
an independent National Nuclear Waste Management Fund, controlled and
administered by the Ministry of Trade and Industry.

METHYL IODIDE APPROVED IN USA


Californias Department of Pesticide Regulation will register methyl iodide, a
fumigant on Californias list of suspected carcinogens, with the most stringent
restrictions in the nation.
The chemical is produced by Arysta LifeScience (Cary, NC) and is an alternative to
methyl bromide, which has been phased out for all but essential uses.

STOLEN CARBON CREDITS HIT MARKET INTEGRITY


FINDINGS OF THE STUDY
The thriving carbon market
received a jolt recently when an
unexpected phenomenon in this age and time of cutting edge
technology was detected; that of solen EUAs (European carbon
allowance).
It led to temporary suspension of spot trading in carbon. Thefts of up to
two million tonnes of EUAs from the accounts in the Austrian and Czech
Republic registries have been reported.
The largest part of the market, over 90 percent, is in forward delivery
contracts (the December 2011 contracts) which remained trading with robust
volumes. It is also reported that prices in the aftermath of the event have
remained trading in the 14 to 15 per tonne level that they have been
prevailing since the start of the year. While the functioning of the market
remains intact as does the environmental integrity of the scheme, the
incident highlights a couple of issues, Barclays Capital pointed out in a recent
report.
First, it highlighted the issue of IT security and the failure of a number of
registries to fully implement approved improvements in IT security protocols.
Certainly, the EC suspension of the registries has focused on both the issues,
that of isolating the stolen EUAs and ensuring that each individual registry
improves its IT security to the level required by the registries regulation.
The second issue the incident highlights, Barclays Capital said, is the
difficulty of dealing with stolen EUAs. Unlike in other commodity markets
which see theft of the underlying (asset), EUAs are uniquely identifiable and
exist only within the registries themselves. Once stolen, EUAs are quickly
traded to unwary buyers before the theft is realized. Once sold, then the
ability to find them raises a legal question of whose property they now are.
The matter becomes complicated because the treatment of stolen goods
(that have been subsequently sold to unwitting buyers) varies across states.
It becomes an issue of large legal complexity, the report observed.
Worse, the reputation of the market takes a beating because of these
operational issues. Experts point out that the mess is largely the result of
making it too easy to have access to registries.
This incident is another one in a line of problems that would largely be solved
by only giving access to this market to compliance entities and registered
financial intermediaries.

PLANT CLOSURES
Olins caustic chlorine projects
Olin will end chlor-alkali production at its Augusta, GA,USA mercury cell plant
and invest $160 million to convert its Charleston, TN chlor-alkali facility from
mercury cell to membrane cell technology, ending its use of mercury cell
technology by the end of 2012.
The restructuring will reduce the companys total chlor-alkali manufacturing
capacity by 160,000 tonnes per year and will improve costs and product
quality, Olin says.
The Charleston facility, in addition to chlorine and caustic soda also produces
potassium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid, and bleach. The company also
received financial incentives from state and local officials in Tennessee to
make the conversion.
The Charleston plant currently has the capacity to produce 260,000 tonnes
per year. After the conversion, the site will have the capacity to produce
200,000 tonnes per year of potassium hydroxide and caustic soda. The
Augusta site will be reconfiqured to produce bleach and distribute caustic
soda. The mercury cell chlor-alkali plant at Augusta has manufacturing
capacity of 100,000 tonnes per year and will continue operating until new
capacity is ready to run.
Olin operates two of the four remaining mercury cell plants in the U.S.; the
remaining plants are PPGs facility at Natrium, WV and Ashta Chemicals
facility at Ashtabula, OH. The move is expected to reduce U.S. caustic soda
capacity by about 1.3%, while Olins own chlor-alkali capacity will decline by
about 9% by the end of 2012.
Last year, Olin completed a $170 million convenrsion and expansion project
at the companys St.Gabriel, LA chlor-alkali plant that converted the plants
mercury cell technology to membrane cell technology while boosting chloralkali production at the site by 25%, to 246,000 electrochemical units per
year).

imported from the European Union
(EU), Korea, and the U.S. for another
four years November 30, 2010.
China originally imposed antidumping
duties on chloroform imported from the
EU, India, Korea and the U.S. for five
years starting in November 2004.
China launched in November 2009 a review of antidumping measures on
chloroform imported from the EU, Korea and the U.S. in response to
applications from Chinese chloroform manufacturers.
The investigation did not cover antidumping measures against chloroform
from India because there had been no applications from any Chinese
chloroform manufacturers.
Antidumping measures on chloroform imported from India were terminated
on November 30, 2009.
The Government of China said that dumping of chloroform originating from
the EU, Korea, and the U.S. might continue and would once again damage
Chinese industry if the antidumping measures were terminated.
*****
Aniline
India has initiated a probe into alleged dumping of aniline by European Union
countries to protect domestic players.
The Commerce Ministry's designated authority, the Directorate General of AntiDumping and Allied Duties (DGAD), started an investigation into alleged
dumping of aniline on the basis of an application filed by Gujarat Narmada
Valley Fertilisers Company Ltd and supported by Hindustan Organic Chemicals.
The period of investigation for the purpose is from April 2009 to June 2010. The
injury investigation period will, however, cover the period 2006-07, 2007-08,
2008-09.
It said that the DGAD has sufficient prima facie evidence of dumping of aniline
by European Union to initiate the probe.

Glass fibre
The Designated Authority in the
Commerce Ministry of Government of
India has recommended imposition of
definitive anti-dumping duty on
import of glass fibre and articles
made out of it from China, following a
joint petition filed by domestic
manufacturers Owens Corning India
Ltd, Mumbai and Reinforcement
Manufacturing Ltd, Hyderabad.

Glass fibre articles are essentially a reinforcement material. Such articles are
made from extremely fine fibres of glass. The various uses of glass fibre
articles include thermal insulation, electrical insulation, tent poles,
automobile bodies, hockey sticks, surfboards, boat hulls, translucent roof
panels and paper honeycomb.
As a spate of requests for exclusion emanated from various interested
(importing) parties by the Authority during the run-up to the probe, it has
explicitly stated that for the purpose of investigation, the product under
consideration is glass fibre, including glass roving (assembled rovings-AR),
direct rovings), direct rovings (DR), glass chopped strands (CS), glass
chopped strands mats (CSM).
Specifically excluded from the scope of the product under investigation are
glass wool, fibre glass wool, fibre glass insulation in wool form, glass yarn,
glass woven fabrics, glass fibre fabric, glass woven rovings and chopped
strands purported for thermoplastic applications, micro glass fibres used in
batter separator, surface mat/surface veil/tissue.
While recommending imposition of definitive anti-dumping duty equal to the
lesser of margin of dumping and margin of injury so as to remove the injury
to the domestic industry, the Authority also took due cognisance of a
significant differentiation of the product in terms of prices.
Hence, it decided to impose anti-dumping duty as an ad valorem duty, to be
worked out as a percentage of the CIF (cost, insurance & freight) value of
imports of the subject goods from China.
Accordingly, the Chinese producer/exporter Shandong Taishan-PDO Glass Fibre
Products Co Ltd should fork out a definitive anti-dumping duty equal to 20.89
per cent of cif value, while the same producer but exporting through Taishan
Fibreglass Inc also should pay a dumping levy equal to the same percentage.

The latter firm exporting the subject goods as producer/exporter should also
pay an anti-dumping duty equal to 20.89 per cent of cif value of imports.
In the case of Jushi Group Jiujiang Co Ltd, which is a producer and exporter,
it should pay a definitive anti-dumping duty equal to 18.67 per cent of cif
value of imports.
The other Chinese manufacturer Chongqing Polycomp International
Corporation (CPIC) may have to pay a lower definitive anti-dumping duty
equal to 7.46 per cent of cif value of imports.
All other manufacturers/exporters from China would have to pay a hefty antidumping duty equal to 40.91 per cent of cif value of imports, while exporting
glass fibre to India, the Authority held.
*****
Glass fibre
China Fiberglass Co Ltd., in China reported on December 23rd that the
European Commission may lower the anti dumping duties on imported China
made glass fiber from 43.69% of the preliminary conclusions announced on
September 16th, 2010 to 13.8%.
To manage the pressure of 43.69% duty, China fiberglass announced to raise
selling price of its glass fiber produce by 7% to 12% from January 1st.2011.
This Chinese leading glass fiber maker usually exports 20% of its glass fiber
output to European market.
*****
Methanol
On December 23rd, 2010, Chinas Ministry of Commerce (MOC) announced a
final ruling that Indonesia, Malaysia and New Zealand dumped methanol in
the Chinese market, causing material damage to Chinese manufacturers.
The five year anti dumping measures against methanol imported from the
above three countries will begin on December 23rd, 2010.
But due to some special reasons and with the approval of the tariff
commission of the State Council, the measures will not take effect until
further notice, MOC said.
MOC found that Indonesia based PT LALTIM METHANOL INDUSTRI and
Malaysia based PETRONAS METHANOL LABHAN SDN.BHD both dumped at a
rate of 9.10%, New Zealand based Methanex New Zealand Limited dumped
at 8.90%. Other companies dumped at rates between 32.5% and 37.5%.

Barium carbonate
The Directorate General of Anti-Dumping and Allied Duties (DGAD)the
Government of India has concluded in its findings that Barium Carbonate is
exported by China to India below its normal value.
The Authority (DGAD) is of the view that imposition of definitive duty is
required to offset the dumping and injury. The duty would range between
USD 236 and USD 76 per tonne.
Acting on complaints from the domestic industry, DGAD had initiated probe
into the dumping of barium carbonate from China, which increased to 25,513
tonne in 2008-09 from 13,539 tonne in the previous fiscal.
*****
Pentaerythritol
The Designated Authority in the Commerce Ministry of Government of India
has initiated anti-dumping investigation into the imports of pentaerythritol,
from the European Union (EU), excluding Sweden.
In response to a petition filed by domestic manufacturer Kanoria Chemicals &
Industries Ltd, the Authority said that the petitioner determined normal value
of the chemical based on estimates of cost of production, which were based
on international raw material prices, as the applicant failed to find out the fair
selling price in the EU. It said that the applicant determined dumping margin
for the product based on the normal value and export price. The normal
value of the chemical in the EU is significantly higher than the net export
price, indicating that the chemical originating in or exported from the EU is
being dumped.
The Authority said that there is sufficient evidence of the applicant being
injured' because of dumped imports from the EU to justify an anti-dumping
probe.
The petitioner has taken April 2009 to June 2010 (15 months) as the period
of investigation. But for analysing injury, fiscal years 2006-07, 2007-08,
2008-09 and the subsequent 15 months have been considered.
*****
Acetone
The Designated Authority in the Commerce Ministry has recommended
imposition of definitive anti-dumping duty on imported acetone from Japan
and Thailand. This follows a petition from domestic manufacturers Hindustan
Organic Chemicals Ltd, Mumbai, which is backed by SI Group-India Ltd
(formerly known as Schenectady Herdillia Ltd).

ANTI DUMPING PAGE


In the case of Thailand, the Authority has freed the producer PTT Phenol Company Ltd
and its export arm PTT Phenol Public Co Ltd from the levy of any definitive duty as also
another exporting company, Mitsui & Col Ltd Japan (MBK) or Mitsui & Co (Asia Pacific)
Pte Ltd, Singapore, which sources its subject goods from PTT Phenol Public Co Ltd. But
all other manufacturers/exporters from Thailand of the subject goods have to fork out a
definitive anti-dumping duty of $85.85 a tonne.
If the manufacturer is from Thailand and the exporters are from any country except
Singapore, US, South Africa, European Union, South Korea, Taiwan and Japan, a definitive
anti-dumping duty on the subject goods of $85.85 a tonne has to be paid. Similarly, any
manufacturer from Singapore, the US, South Africa, the European Union, South Korea,
Taiwan and Japan but exporting from Thailand may have to pay a definitive anti-dumping
duty of $85.85 a tonne.
In the case of Japan, the Authority has removed the interim anti-dumping duty imposed on
Mitsui Chemicals Inc. Japan, while subjecting all other manufacturers/exporters from Japan
to pay a definitive anti-dumping duty of $94.96 a tonne.
*****
Penicillin products

The Designated Authority in the Commerce Ministry has proposed definitive antidumping duty on import of Penicillin-G Potassium from China and Mexico and 6-APA (6Amino Penicillanic Acid) from China, following a joint petition from the domestic
manufacturers Alembic Ltd, Vadodara and Southern Petrochemicals Industries
Corporation (SPIC), Chennai.
While Alembic Ltd manufactures both Penicillin-G and 6-APA , SPIC manufactures only
Penicillin-G and the Authority has treated Penicillin-G and 6-APA as two different
products for the purpose of the probe.
The Authority proposed that all manufacturers/exporters of Penicillin-G Potassium from
China would have to shell out a definitive anti-dumping duty of $2.17 per BOU (billions of
unit), including those manufacturers who use China as a country of export, while freeing the
Chinese manufacturer Zhang Jia Kou Gist Brocades Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd and the Chinese
exporter DSM Trading (Shanghai) Co. Ltd from paying the final anti-dumping duty.

In the case of Mexico as a manufacturing base by Fersinsa Gb and the Netherlands as


the export point by DSM Anti-Infectives B.V, the Authority has proposed a definitive antidumping duty on Penicillin-G Potassium of $ 1.93 per BOU, while all other
manufacturers/exporters from Mexico and the Netherlands would have to fork out a final
anti-dumping duty of $2.50 per BOU.
On 6-APA, it has proposed a definitive anti-dumping duty of $4.13 per kg from the
Chinese manufacturer Zhang Jia Kou DHA Pharmaceutical Co.Ltd and the exporter
DSM Trading (Shanghai) Co.Ltd. Another Chinese manufacturer/exporter Aurobindo
(Datong) Bio-Pharma Co Ltd would have to pay a final anti-dumping duty of $2.66 a kg,
while all other manufacturers and exporters from China would have to pay a final antidumping duty of $9.28 per kg on their export of 6-APA to India.

Nano particles could be a double-edged sword, says scientist
Scientists
fear
that
despite nano technology
holding the answers to
various
ailments
and
solutions
to
man's
everyday problems, there
is a high possibility of
nano
particles
turning
toxic as asbestos. Care
should be taken to see
that natural nano particles
that do not harm the
environment or humans
are used, the scientific
community feels.
Dr Qamar Rahman of the University of Rostock in Germany said, "I have
been studying the effects of asbestos on humans for the last 35 years. For
the last three or four years, we have been studying nano particles to see if
they are a potential danger. Nanotechnology is a clean technology but recent
studies show that there are possible dangers in how these tiny particles
might interact with the environment and human body."
Dr Qamar Rahman was speaking at an international conference on recent
trends in therapeutic advancement of free radical science organised by the
Society for Free Radical Research Chennai .
She said the possible dangers of nanotechnology lie in how these tiny
particles might interact with the environment and the human body. This is
because elements behave differently and have different properties in their
nano form. For example, gold, when reduced to nano particles, is red in
colour.
Studies have shown that some nano particles have proved toxic when applied
to in vitro systems and in animals, but research on the effects on humans is
minimal, she said.
She said experts wanted the research in nanotechnology to also include ways
to get these nanoparticles out of the human system once they have done
their work as they would otherwise cause complications. "In medicine, nano
particles are painted on to devices and sent into the blood stream to target
particular parts of the body."

BOVINE BELLIES YIELD CLUES FOR NEW BIOFUELS


Researchers looking for better
ways to make biofuels turned to
experts at breaking down grass
-- cattle -- and found more than
a dozen new compounds in their
guts that might help make new,
cheap sources of energy.
They
used
new
genetic
sequencing techniques to find
microbes, that make enzymes
that in turn can break down
tough
grasses
into
usable
products.
Writing in the journal Science,
the scientists
said that they
took samples directly from the
rumen -- the organ in cattle that
ferments and breaks down
grass.

"Industry is seeking better ways to break down biomass to use as the starting
material for a new generation of renewable biofuels," said Eddy Rubin of the U.S.
Department of Energy's Joint Genome Institute in California, which led the study.
To make sure that they found the right microbes in action, they used a cow that
had a hole surgically opened right into its rumen. The researchers needed to find
the bacteria that worked in airless environments like a cow's insides.
Rubin's team used metagenomics, a gene-sequencing approach that maps the
DNA of a community of organisms instead of one single creature or plant.
Metagenomics are being used to explore the microbes living in and on people, as
well as by genome entrepreneur Craig Venter to catalog all the tiniest creatures
of the sea.
In this case, the goal was to find microbes that make enzymes that can
efficiently break down the toughest fibers in switchgrass, a tough crop that can
be used to produce ethanol and which can grow in places where food crops do
not grow well.
But switchgrass is very tough to break down.
"Microbes have evolved over millions of years to efficiently degrade recalcitrant
biomass," Rubin said.

INTEGRATED POLYSILICON PROJECT OF


WACKER CHEMIE
Wacker Chemie will build a
1.1 billion ($1.5 billion)
integrated
polysilicon
production facility at a site
near Cleveland, TN,USA.
The project dubbed Poly 11
is the largest in Wacker
history and will be partially
funded by $1-billion in
polysilicon customer pre
payments.

The 15,000 tonnes per year facility is expected to begin shipping material in
early 2014. Wacker says that it expects demand for polysilicon to grow at
double digit rates and the investment will help it maintain its 20% share of
the global polysilicon market.
The site will incorporate a closed-loop design, including the production of
trichlorosilane feedstock, deposition of hyperpure silicon and facilities to
recycle by-products and auxiliary materials.
Wacker bought the land in March 2009 and spent 10 million on preparatory
engineering work at the site. Wacker initially considered building a 10,000
tonnes per year plant at the site at a cost of $1 billion, but opted for the
larger site because of the strong solar market outlook.
The company currently has the capacity to produce 32,000 tonnes per year
of polysilicon at Burghausen, Germany and has invested $1 billion to build
10,000 tonnes per year of capacity at Nunchritz, Germany.
That site is expected to begin delivering material in late 2011.
Polysilicon supply is expected to grow 16% CAGR from 2010-2014 and reach
290,000 tonnes per year by 2014.
Capacity growth will principally be driven by expansions by major producers,
including Hemlock Semiconductor (Hemlock, MI), OCI (Seoul) and Wacker.

ALBEMARLES CATALYST PLANT IN BRAZIL


Albemarle
has
signed
a
memorandum of understanding
with Petrobras (Rio de Janeiro)
to build a hydroprocessing
catalyst (HPC) production plant
in Santa Cruz, Brazil.
Albemarle
says
there
is
significant demand growth for
HPCs
in
Brazil,
which
is
implementing more stringent
regulations for ultra-low sulfur
diesel, as well as increasing
demand from Petrobras as it
introduces
hydrotreaters
to
existing and new refineries.
The plant will be built at the site of Fabrica Carioca de Catalisadores SA (FCC
SA), a fluid catalytic cracking catalyst (FCC) and additives joint venture operated
by Albemarle and Petrobras.
The world-scale HPC plants are between 10,000 to 12,000 tonnes per year.
Hydrotreating capacity in South America, excluding Mexico and the Caribbean, is
expected to more than double, to about one million bbls per day, by 2016-2018.
Brazil in particular is expanding refining capacity to upgrade huge oil
discoveries within the country, adding a projected 6 to 8 refineries by 2020.
Petrobras expects its HPC demand to increase five-fold by 2016. The company is
investing to improve the quality of its oil derived streams with the construction
of new hydrotreating and hydroconversion units.
Petrobras is increasingly making use of hydroprocessing catalysts and its future
needs are going up by significant investments in new refining units. The
company announced in June,2010 that it plans to spend more than $200 billion
over the next five years to increase refining capacity, with 90% of that
investment earmarked for projects in Brazil.
Brazil will also adopt Euro 4 heavy duty diesel fuel specifications by 2014,
mandating lower sulfur in diesel fuel and increasing refiners use of HPC, Payn
says.
Albemarle and Petrobras will also jointly develop advanced HPCs, mirroring their
very successful existing cooperation in FCC catalysts. The partnership between
Petrobras and Albemarle in refinery catalysts has generated significant value for
both companies for over 25 years.

DEMAND FOR POLYMERS


FINDINGS OF THE STUDY
The medium to long term growth in demand for commodity polymers in the Indian
market would remain robust, given the favourable growth expected in the key enduser industries like fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), automotives,
infrastructure and agriculture, said ICRA in its latest report.
The medium to long term growth in demand for commodity polymers in the Indian
market would remain robust, given the favourable growth expected in the key end-user
industries like fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), automotives, infrastructure and
agriculture, said ICRA in its latest report.
On the global supply side, ICRA, noted
that while many polymer capacity
addition projects have been announced,
the slower-than-expected progress of
such projects because of the shortage of
engineering and manpower resources,
overbooked vendors and contractors,
feedstock constraints and problems in
plant stabilisation are causing delays in
the commissioning of the new capacities,
thereby affecting incremental product
availability.
While these delays have pushed back the much anticipated down-cycle in the sector, a
supply glut is expected in the near term and this should persist for the next few years,
which in turn would exert pressure on petrochemical margins.
The Indian demand-supply situation in commodity polymers should largely be favourable
for polyethylene (PE) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) producers in the medium to long
term, as the market should be in deficit despite the planned additions to capacity.
Polypropylene (PP) producers would, however, have to continue coping with capacity
surplus, which means the reliance on exports would continue. Margins for domestic
producers of PE, PP and PVC could come under stress in the near to medium term, as
import competition is also likely to escalate.
As per ICRA report, the other near term challenges for domestic polymer resin
manufacturers, would be passing on to consumers increases in feedstock prices in a
scenario of rising crude oil prices and managing slowdown in short-term demand against
the backdrop of rising resin prices.
ICRA, said, Notwithstanding the sizeable capacity additions anticipated in India over the
next three to four years, the domestic demand-supply balance should remain favourable
for PE and PVC resin producers, even as the PP resin market should remain in surplus.
It is, however, not the demand-supply dynamics but increasing import competition from
West Asian manufacturers that makes for a pressing concern, given that such
competition could translate into subdued tolling margins for incumbents and new
entrants over the medium term.

BENEFITS OF NEEM COMPOUNDS


FOR PEST CONTROL
It is gratifying that agricultural farmers are now increasingly becoming
aware of the importance of organic cultivation, which would inevitably
result in increasing demand for neem compounds for pest control
operations.
However, there is still large scope for optimizing use of neem compounds
as pest control agents by adopting improved practices.
Mr.K.Raman a Chemical Engineer and former General Manager of EID
Parry India Ltd has carried out extensive study on development of neem
compounds and its application development for pest control in
agricultural operations.
In this article, Mr.K Raman discusses the possibilities for optmising pest
control operations with neem compounds.

Need for educating the farmers


with regard to agricultural
practices
There is a view in the country
that education of farmers with
regard to fertilizer application
and pest control methodologies
have still not been carried out
at adequate scale with the
depth that is required.

Indiscriminate use of pesticides are still continuing, with a section of farming


community thinking, due to their innocence, that more use of pesticides will
result in greater agricultural productivity.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

BENEFITS OF NEEM COMPOUNDS FOR PEST CONTROL


Also, heavy dose of nitrogenous fertilizers are used by the farmers with the
objective of getting more yield. Many farmers do not seem to realize that
such heavy use of nitrogenous fertilizer is not fully going to the plant growth
purposes and about 70% goes as waste. The excessive nitrogen dose by
default provides the host cell for virus and bacteria. Thus, pest life cycles
come into play , with laying of eggs and generation of more pests.
Farmers also seem to think that seeds are always good and do not realize the
fact that seeds themselves sometimes carry germs that cause disease in the
crops.
Further, the use of solid form of manures may also give rise to pests /
diseases and therefore, solid form of manures should be used with great
care.
Finally, the farmers should be aware that the soil borne nematodes find it
safe to remain underneath of soil and closer to water belt.
General perceptions and facts
With regard to the use and benefits of neem compounds for pest
control,there are number of perceptions amongst farmers, some of which
need to be better understood.
General perception on use of neem
compounds
Azadirachtin stable formulation is
necessary for good bio efficacy
Soil borne pests are not controlled by
neem formulations
Neem products are not cost effective
Neem oil formulations are necessary to
control pests
Neem compounds are not good stand
alone pesticide
Protocols for use of neem compounds are
developed in line with synthetic pesticide
practices

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

The facts
All the compounds of neem are
synergistic and give good bio efficacy,
irrespective of azadirachtin content
By suitable formulations of neem
compounds, nematodes can be
controlled
Since they are systemic , neem
compounds can be economical for use
over a period of time. Early application
is important
Neem oil formulations harm crop and
impair photosynthesis
On timely application, they are good
stand alone product.
As a preventive dose, they work well as
stand alone product
Specific protocols depending on crop
and to take advantage of systemic

CHLOROSULPHONIC ACID - PRODUCT PROFILE


Outline of manufacturing process:
All the industrial routes to chlorosulphonic acid are based on the reaction of
hydrogen chloride with sulphur trioxide, which is produced from sulphur.
HCl + SO3
ClSO2OH
(with exothermic reaction as 233 Kcal/Kg. of the product).
Earlier, processes made use of contact process gas, which contains 6 to 7% SO3,
but today it is more usual to use pure sulphur trioxide. Waste gas problems
are thereby dealt with more easily and a more compact plant design is possible.
Production process varies with the manner of bringing the two raw materials
together and the method of heat removal. When gas phase reactions are
employed, the hottest phase is near 150 deg C. and when gas\liquid phases are
employed, the reaction temperature range is within 60 to 70 deg C.
The reactor can be packed column with a chlorosulphonic acid spray at the top
and hydrogen chloride and sulphur trioxide entering at the bottom.
The reaction and the heat removal both take place in one piece of equipment.
Alternatively, it is possible to separate these steps by first mixing the
components intensively in a separate mixer such as a mixing nozzle; The hot
reaction product is then quickly cooled with cold chlorosulphonic acid in a
packed column or other suitable unit.
Process Outline
Modern plants manufacture chlorosulphonic acid by direct union of equimolar
quantities of sulphur trioxide and dry hydrogen chloride gas.
The reaction takes place spontaneously with evolution of a large quantity of
heat. Heat removal is necessary to maintain the temperature at 50 deg. C to 80
deg.C and thus minimise unwanted side reactions.
The most common feature of the process is continuous flow operation, two or
more vessels in series for gas-liquid contacting, heat exchangers for controlling
temperatures and the uses of excess chlorosulphonic acid, as a solvent during at
least part of the reaction.
Prognosis
The thrust areas of applications for chlorosulphonic acid are the dyestuff and the
pharmaceutical sector.
In recent times, requirement of chlorosulphonic acid is also met by setting up
captive facility for the production of chlorosulphonic acid by the end user, to
avoid transportation and receipt from distant sources. In view of this, the overall
supply scenario in the country remains comfortable.

Chemical formula:

CAS No.

9002-85-1

Properties
Poly (vinylidene chloride) (PVDC) resin is a thermoplastic white powder ,
comprised mainly of PVDC.
PVDC resin has an excellent barrier property and provides oil resistance
performance. The most valuable property of PVDC is low permeability to a
wide range of gases and vapours.
Compared with polymers such as EVOH and nylon, PVDC has excellent
comprehensive performance and has a range of applications in packaging
high temperature meat products and smoked products.
The most serious deficiency of PVDC is thermal instability at melt processing
temperature. The techniques used to overcome the instability are
copolymerisation and plasticisation
Because they are highly oriented, these films exhibit some shrinkage when
exposed to higher than normal temperatures.
Form
Normally, PVDC is isolated, dried and used as conventional resin. PVDC is
often made in emulsion form.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

40

POLYVINYLIDENE CHLORIDE (PVDC) INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY


Fabrication
The PVDC resins, when properly formulated with plasticisers and heat
stabilizers, can be fabricatd by common methods, such as injection,
compression and transfer moulding.
Conventional or dielectric heating can be used to melt the polymers.
Rapid hardening is achieved by forming heated moulds to induce rapid
crystallization.
Health and safety factors
Vinylidene chloride is highly volatile. When free of decomposition products, it
has a mild sweet odour.
Vinylidene chloride is hepatotoxic, but it does not appear to be a carcinogen.
Storage:
The product should be stored in a segregated and approved area. The
container should be kept tightly closed and sealed until ready for use.
Sources of ignition should be avoided .
Product application
PVDC is dissolved with a solvent and used as a coating, principally for films.
The heat seal characteristics of PVDC coatings are valuable in many
applications.
PVDC is used for food packaging .
PVDC is applied as a water-based coating to other plastic films such as
biaxially-oriented polypropylene (BOPP) and polyester (PET). This coating
increases the barrier properties of the film, reducing the permeability of the
film to oxygen and flavours and thus extending the shelf life of the food
inside the package.
The biaxially oriented extruded films are used in packaging applications
where their excellent resistance to water vapour and most gases provide
them ideal transparent barriers.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

41

POLYVINYLIDENE CHLORIDE (PVDC) INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY


Multilayer film
A significant new application is in the construction of multilayer film and sheet.
PVDC layer is incorporated into multilayer film for perishable food packaging
because it provides a barrier to oxygen.
This innovation permits the design of a packaging material with a combination of
properties not obtainable in any single material.
Application of PVDC latex
PVDC latex can be easily prepared by the same method but have specific uses
because they do not form films.
PVDC latex can serve as an excellent barrier to both oxygen and water (steam)
and can be used to produce disposable snack boxes.
Stable latexes have been prepared and can be used directly for coatings. The
principal applications for these materials are as barrier coatings on paper
products and more recently on plastic films.

PVDC latex have also been used with cement to make high strength mortars
and concretes. They are also used as binders for paints and nonwoven
fabrics.
The use of special PVDC latex for barrier laminating adhesives is growing and
the use of PVDC in flame resistant carpet backing is well known.
Disadvantages
While useful as a food packaging agent, the major disadvantage of PVDC is that
it will undergo thermally induced dehydrochlorination at temperature very near
to processing temperature.
This degradation easily propagates, leaving polyene sequences long enough to
absorb visible light and change the colour of the material from colourless to an
undesirable transparent brown (unacceptable food packaging). Therefore, there
is a significant amount of product loss in the manufacturing process, which
increases production and consumer costs.
Copolymers of high VDC content are film forming when freshly prepared but
soon crystallize and lose this desirable characteristic. Since crystallinity in the
final product is often desirable, e.g. in barrier coatings, a significant
developmental problem has been to prevent crystallisation in the latex during
storage and to induce rapid crystallisation of the polymer after coating. This has
been accomplished by using the proper combination of comonomers with VDC.

Process
Vinylidene chloride is prepared commercially by the dehydrochlorination of
1,1,2-trichloroethane with lime or caustic in slight excess (2 to 10%). A
continuous liquid phase reaction at 98 to 99 deg.C yields around 90% VDC.

PVDC resin is polymerised from vinylidene chloride (VDC) with other


monomers such as vinyl chloride (VC), acrylonitrile, acrylic acid or
methacrylates,.
Industrially, PVDC resin is usually made by the emulsion polymerisation
process or the suspension polymerisation process. The former is now the
main method.
Global demand
The worlds total PVDC resin capacity is around 230 000 tonnes per annum.
Global growth in demand
The demand for vinylidene chloride monomer and polymers is expected to
increase by 5% annually.
The monomer is of particular economic interest because its cost increases
slower than the hydrocarbons because of its high content of low cost
chlorine.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPECIALITY CHEMICAL -ALPHA METHYL STYRENE


Substitution possibilities
In many applications of this kind, alpha methyl styrene competes with
styrene, over which it has some stability and handling advantages. It can
be copolymerised with monomers such as benzene, acrylates and
styrene.
Process Technology:
Alpha methyl styrene is recovered as a by product of the phenol production
process of cumene oxidation. This is then
purified by continuous
distillation under reduced pressure to lower the amount of phenol, cumene
and butyl benzene impurities.
Process licensors:
Companies such as UOP and Kellogg license the process.
Demand drivers

Global supply/demand scenario:


Supply of alpha methyl styrene is tied to cumene and phenol production.
Because it can be recycled within this process, the amount of alpha methyl
styrene produced can be varied.
This means that supply is generally well balanced with demand.
Because of the cost of this purification in limited markets, many phenol
producers do not separate alpha methyl styrene but simply recycle it by
hydrogenating it back to cumene.
Alpha methyl styrene capacity is only added when phenol capacity expands.
The world market for alpha methyl styrene is around 0.26 million tonnes per
year.
Average market growth is 2% per year.
Prognosis
Alpha methyl styrene supply has been kept in balance, with supply by
incremental addition of capacity by major producers in line with the addition of
phenol capacity.
This trend for modest growth looks set to continue, with the market remaining
balanced.

Status of REACH registration
Geert Dancet, executive director at the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA;

under the European Unions (EU) Reach program was a success.
REACH registration closed on November 30, 2010.
ECHA says that its online registration system operated normally despite a
last-minute rush by companies to register their substances.
ECHA had received 24,675 registration dossiers covering 4,300 substances
by the close of business on November 30, 2010.
The overall number of registrations accepted for processing is in line with
original forecasts made by the European Commission. The final number of
registrations and substances will be announced at the end of February 2011
when all submitted dossiers are due to have been processed.
Almost 400 substances registered

Firms that fail to register substances under Reach face a no-market
scenario in the EU for their products, but if they register quickly they will be
able to sell their products in the EU once again.
Lessons learned from the initial registration round will be incorporated into
the 2013 and 2018 registration deadlines for smaller-volume chemicals.

PAEDIATRIC NIMESULIDE, CISAPRIDE, PPA
FACE BAN
Four drugsanalgesic Nimesulide suspension for paediatric use, heartburn drug
used in gastroesophageal reflux disease, Cisapride, decongestant used in cold
and cough phenylpropanolamine (PPA) and human placenta extract would be
banned in India.

The Drug Controller General of India has forwarded a proposal to the health ministry,
recommending imposition of ban on the sale of these drugs in the Indian market. The
drug regulator has taken the step, based on the final recommendation of a sub
committee of Drug Technical Advisory Board (DTAB), which was constituted to form a
view on imposing a ban on these drugs.
These drugs have been already banned in most regulated markets such as Europe and
US, in most cases between 2000 to 2004.
Although Nimesulide for adult usage has been kept out of the ban for now, it would be
put under surveillance in the pharmaco vigilance system (that provides data on adverse
effect of drugs) that is being streamlined now in the country and as data starts pouring in
the next two years, a final call would be taken on the drug.
The DTAB sub-committee, for now has recommended a ban only on the paediatric
version of the analgesic drug, basing its observation only on global experiences, since
adverse drug effect data from India is almost non existent.
However, data shows that among the most major companies, barring Panacea Biotec,
have either stopped or are in the process of stopping the paediatric Nimuselide market,
which now forms a very small segment of the Rs 300 crore Nimesulide market.
While Panacea earns close to.Rs 3 crore from its paediatric brand of Nimulid,
Dr Reddy's Lab, the market leader in the overall Nimuselide market, earned much less
in 2010 from its paediatric brand, Nise. Dr Reddy's revenues in the specialised segment
has seen a year-on-year negative growth of 99% since 2009, leading one to believe that
the firm could be already in the process of exiting the Nimesulide suspension market. Dr
Reddy's total annual revenues from Nimesulide remained around Rs 62 crore in 2010,
down from Rs 70 crore in 2009.
Panacea's earnings in the paediatric formulation segment has largely stagnated around
Rs 3 crore for last four years, while its overall sale in the segment (inclusive of
Nimesulide adult) stands at Rs 15 crore, down from Rs 20 crore in 2006.
Unichem, which markets paediatric syrup under brand name Pronim earned a meagre
Rs 44 lakh from the brand last year.

Biocon's insulin pill falls short on testing
Biocon Ltd said that its potential
insulin pill did not fully meet the
primary goal of lowering blood
sugar levels to the desired level,
according to a clinical study just
completed in the country.
The data obtained from trials on
264 patients at multiple centres
was being assessed further, the
company said in a release.

The drug, tentatively called IN-105, however proved safe or without serious
side-effects and did not increase the patients' weight (as generally happens
with insulin use).
Patients poorly controlled on metformin, an established anti-diabetic drug,
were randomised to receive either IN-105 or placebo.
The patients in both arms of the study continued with metformin as
background therapy.
It said that some subsets of patients under study showed lower glucose
levels as desired; and some others may have made some behavioural
changes that affected the trial outcome.
The company said, Initial data analyses show that IN-105 did not meet its
primary end point of lowering HbA1c levels by 0.7 per cent compared to
placebo, although an unexpectedly high placebo response was also observed.
Post hoc analysis of self-monitored blood glucose levels in the IN-105 arm
and the placebo arm indicated large reductions in pre-meal glucose levels in
the placebo arm, strongly suggestive of behavioural modification and which
might have confounded the primary endpoint outcome. (HbA1c is a current
test for diabetes and is based on glucose in haemoglobin.)
It said, Additionally, in further post hoc analyses, significant reductions in
HbA1c levels compared to placebo and HbA1c reductions of up to 0.8 per
cent were observed in the IN-105 arm of several subsets of the studied
patient population. Further assessment of the data is on-going.

INDIAS RENEWABLE ENERGY SCENARIO
CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
Growth of renewable energy (RE)
in developed nations is mainly
driven by environmental concerns
of fossil fuel based projects.
In developing nations, renewable
energy projects are adopted to
decrease the demand supply-gap
and to boost rural electrification
and off-grid electrification.
But for countries like India, an
optimal energy mix of both kinds
of energy sources is essential to
have
a
sustainable
energy
system.
Challenges:
One of the biggest challenges in renewable energy development is the high
initial cost of installation.
While development of a coal based power plant requires around Rs 4 crore
per MW, the investment required for wind and solar power-based plants is
significantly higher. A wind based plant, with capacity utilisation of 25%,
requires an investment of Rs 6 crore per MW. The actual investment, at more
efficient capacity utilisation of 80%, works out to Rs 18 crore per MW.
Similarly, the investment in a solar based plant, with a capacity utilisation of
15%, is Rs 18 crore. The actual investment, at 80% capacity utilisation, is
around Rs 98 crore.
High cost associated with renewable energy projects necessitates further
research and technological developments in this area. A comprehensive
policy framework is necessary for accelerated growth of renewable energy in
India.
Proper system planning and integration is another important aspect. Knowing
the decentralised nature of RE projects, the capacity and type of project is to
be decided where availability of the energy source can be ensured.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

62

ENERGY PAGE
Most RE systems are weather dependent; thus, factors like number of sunny
days, wind condition, monsoon, tide level, supply of biomass, etc play an
important role in feasibility of the system. Plant availability is not predictable
as in case of conventional plants.
Despite heavy subsidy being provided by the government for installation of
solar water-heaters and lighting systems, its penetration is still very low.
Manpower training is another grey area. Currently, the Indian power sector is
facing severe trained manpower shortage. Skill upgradation of the existing
manpower and training of new professionals are essential to achieve the goal
of power to all by 2012.
Opportunities:
Despite having an installed capacity of over 167 GW, India is facing an
energy deficit of 8% and peak deficit of 12%. So far, only 4.5% of renewable
energy potential has been explored in India. To reduce the demand-supply
gap, the renewable energy development is the need of the hour.
Renewable energy certificate ( REC )) is also being increasingly used and
traded at various power exchanges around the world. RECs are considered as
important tool for renewable energy promotion. Indian power exchanges are
also going to introduce trading of these certificates very soon.
Electrification of remote areas and inaccessible terrains where grid
connectivity is not feasible is only possible through renewable energy
sources. Thus, renewables help address energy security concerns better than
conventional energy sources.

OIL ABOVE $100 NOT SUSTAINABLE


FINDINGS OF THE STUDY
Oil prices will average slightly more than $90 a barrel this year as Chinese-led
demand provides support.
Compared with survey in December 2010, price forecasts were more than $4
higher in January 2011. It was the fourth revision higher in a row and follows a
sustained price rally that took US and Brent crude futures to 27-month highs in
January 2011. Brent climbed to $99.20, while US crude hit a peak of $92.58.
The rally has been triggered by US quantitative easing and a weakened dollar as
well as expectations of stronger growth, led by China and other emerging
markets.
Still, the landscape is very different from that of 2008, when supply struggled to
keep pace with demand and oil prices shot to a record of $147.27 before
crashing lower.
There is the prospect of 4.5% growth in global GDP this year and emerging
markets have appetite for "more and more energy".
Any strength in the oil market will be focused on European Brent futures, which
since August,2010 have sustained an unusual premium to US crude, reflecting
storage issues in the United States and dwindling North Sea supplies.
The survey of 36 analysts found that Brent would average $91.17, up from the
last poll's $86.85 forecast, while US crude was seen at $90.40, up from the
$86.26 forecast in December.
Inventories in the United States, the biggest oil consumer, have fallen from
record levels hit in 2010, drawn down by an exceptionally harsh northern
hemisphere winter, but they are still above the five-year average.
So far, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries producer group
has said there is enough crude on the market and no need for it to pump any
more oil, even though some analysts have voiced concerns that prices could be
high enough to undermine fragile economic growth.
Top oil exporter Saudi Arabia stopped short of promising extra oil, although
giving a higher figure for demand growth this year than some other forecasters.
Saudi oil minister Ali al-Naimi said Asia -- particularly China and India -- would
lead the increase in use but he saw no rapid rally this year. "I expect prices to
continue to be stable at last year's rates (levels)," he said.

IFCs facility of Indian renewable energy projects
World Bank arm International Finance Corporation (IFC) has pledged $300
million for the development of renewable energy projects in India. The
investment would be a mix of equity and debt over the next three years.
A quarter of the amount would be invested in the country's nascent solar energy
sector while the rest would go to wind and biomass projects.
At present, solar projects contribute less than 1% to the total power generated
in the country. The funding announced by IFC is part of the $1 billion that the
international lender plans to spend on renewable energy projects across the
world by 2013.
India is doing well in the solar power sector but it needed to be more pro-active
like neighbouring China says IFC.
IFC is supporting financial institutions,such as Infrastructure Development
Finance Company; so that they are able to lend more to renewable energy
projects. This way it is trying to ensure that more global players come into the
country for the National Solar Mission.
IFC is also in advanced talks with some solar power developers in the country.
Last fiscal, IFC invested $140 million in the development of alternate sources of
energy, emerging technologies and clean power generation projects in India.
During the same period,it invested $600 million in renewable energy globally.
Renewable energy projects had a 70% share in IFC's total power investment in
the 2009-10 fiscal.
IFC says it will increase investments in India's renewable energy projects when
the government opens up the sector further.

Shale gas project of Reliance Industries

Shale gas is an unconventional source of energy, which is found in nonporous rock.


Last April, Reliance Industries Ltd. had announced its Marcellus Shale joint
venture with Atlas Energy of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Under the terms of transaction, Reliance Industries Ltd. had acquired 40 per
cent interest in Atlas's core Marcellus Shale acreage.

ENERGY PAGE
Reliance had paid approximately $339 million in cash at closing of the deal
and agreed to pay an additional $1.36 billion under a carry arrangement by
funding 75 per cent of Atlas' capital costs over the developmental
programme.
Reliance Industries Ltd and US-based Atlas Energy are exploring options for
expanding their shale gas joint venture to new geographies including Canada
and Australia.
*****
US scenario for shale gas
On the perception that shale gas exploration and production are more
expensive than conventional natural gas production it is pointed out that ,
this perception does not hold true for the US. In the US, the cost of
production for shale gas is generally less than conventional gas.
The new geographies being explored are likely to be other shale gas areas in
Europe, Asia, within the US or in third countries including Canada and
Australia.
Land acquisition is one of the important factors. In the US, most of the shale
gas structures are located on private land. The policy is such that the land
owners are also given a share of revenue generated from production.Besides,
for shale gas exploration and production, the area must have abundant water
supply.
*****
ONGC hits shale gas in Bengal
ONGC scientists have found an unlimited
reserve of shale gas with vast untapped
resources, at Sarpi near Durgapur at a site
spread over an area of 1 250 to 1300 sqkm.
The Sarpi deposit is Asias biggest and the only
tapped shale gas reserve outside North America.
ONGC, which began its exploration of the
Damodar basin last September,2010 in Indias
first such experimental project, hit upon the gas
source while drilling its first rig.

In 2010, Reliance Industries Ltd.,(RIL) bought three shale gas assets in the
US. RIL paid $340 million in cash and $52 million in drilling cost top Carrizo
Oil and Gas Inc and its partners for a 60% stake in the Marcellus shale-gas
areas of central and northeast Pennsylvania.

In April, RIL bought a 40% stake in Atlas Energy Incs Marcellus Shale
acreage for $1.7 billion. In June, it had agreed to buy a 45% stake in
Pioneer Natural Resources Eagle Ford shale natural gas asset in Texas for
about $ 1.36 billion

Plans of Thermax for geothermal energy business
After Puga in Leh, Thermax is looking at developing a power plant based on
geothermal energy in the Konkan region of Maharashtra.
The company is planning to enter into a memorandum of understanding with
the Maharashtra Energy Development Agency (MEDA), an arm of the State
Government, which promotes use of non conventional energy.
A power plant based on geothermal energy will harness the continuous heat
from the earth's inner layers for electricity production. In certain areas, the
earth's crust is more conducive for setting up the plants. In Maharashtra,
such favourable areas are found on the coast, from the Maharashtra-Gujarat
border to Rajapur in Konkan region.
Thermax has a joint venture with Reykjavik Geothermal, an Iceland-based
company, for developing the geothermal energy business in India. The joint
venture is developing a 3-MW geothermal plant in Puga valley, Leh on an
experimental basis.
Phase I
Thermax has got a block around Rajapur for exploring geothermal energy.
In the first phase, a geological study would be conducted by non-invasive
means and depending on the success of this phase, further investigation
would be carried out by drilling one km deep experimental wells. Thermax
says that currently it is difficult to predict the size of the plant, as the size of
the geothermal field is not known.
Rs 10 crore is required for developing one Megawatt of geothermal energy.
Since the heat continuously emanates from the earth's crust, the load factor
of the plant is about 99 per cent.
The power tariff from geothermal plants is likely to be comparable to a
thermal coal plant, which is in the range of Rs 2 to Rs 3 per unit, while power
from solar units are being sold at Rs 15 per unit.

PRICE DETAILS
Coking coal
Australia's $50 billion coal export industry is likely to take months to recover
fully, as miners face torrential rains and flooding that have nearly halted coal
production and infrastructure, a Reuters snap survey showed.
While with Australia experiencing the worst floods in at least 50 years just as
the wet season begins, and the nation's weather bureau forecasting more
rains, the prospects for a quick recovery are dim.
Some miners suggest that it could take as long as 18 months for thermal and
coking coal supplies to fully recover, while salvage costs will again be huge.
Coking or metallugical coal prices have jumped as Australian supplies
become more scarce, with spot prices for hard coking coal already near $250
per tonne.
It is expected that coking coal prices will be between $240 per tonne and
$300 per tonne for the second quarter of 2011, up from the current quarterly
contract price of $225 per tonne.
Miners Anglo American, Rio Tinto, Xstrata and BHP Billiton have all been
forced to declare force majeure, which companies can invoke to release them
from delivery obligations, due to the flooding.
*****
Price trend of palladium
Palladium may extend a rally this year, as surging car sales in China boost
demand, while supply from top exporter Russia drops as stockpiles fall,
according to the head of commodity trading in Japan at Standard Bank.
The metal is used mainly to clean exhausts from gasoline-powered vehicles.
The metal, used in pollution-control devices, may reach $1,000 an ounce for
the first time since 2001, when the price jumped to an all-time high of
$1,125. Palladium, also used for electronic components and jewelry is traded
at $806 at present.
Precious metals have advanced as the European Union bailed out Greece and
Ireland, prompting investors to seek a haven against weaker currencies and
financial turmoil.
Car sales expansion will boost palladium as the industry is the biggest
consumer. Supply may become unstable as stockpiles of the metal held by
the Russian government may have almost depleted.

Nandini Chemical Journal, February 2011

PRICE DETAILS
Immediate-delivery palladium touched $823.95 an ounce, the highest level
since March 2001. The metal, which has quadrupled in the past two years,
advanced as the global economy recovered from recession, boosting
industrial demand.
Palladium may rise to $1,200 an ounce in 2013, Credit Suisse Group AG said
in a Jan. 12 report, citing increased demand. The price may reach $1,000 an
ounce by the fourth quarter of this year and $1,450 by the end of 2012,
Deutsche Bank said in a Jan. 11 outlook.
The metal will extend its rally as a recovery in U.S. vehicle sales adds to
continued expansions in emerging markets, boosting demand amid the
uncertainty about Russian shipments.
*****
Uranium prices surge
Uranium prices rose 3 per cent in January 2011, brining gains of the nuclear
fuel to more than 70 per cent in the past seven months, according to Ux
Consulting Co.
Uranium-oxide concentrate for immediate delivery traded at $70 a pound.
That compares with $68 on Jan. 18, $66 on Jan. 11 and $62.50 on Jan. 4.
Uranium prices, which reached a high of $136 in 2007 before falling to about
$40, have surged since mid-2010 as China increased the use of nuclear
power to curb emissions from burning coal.
Spot prices may advance to $75 a pound by the second quarter in 2011,
after Chinas imports of the nuclear fu el in December gained 38 per cent
over the previous month, Macquarie Group Ltd. Said in a Jan. 22 report.
*****
Aluminium
National Aluminium Company (Nalco) has increased the price of the metal by
nearly 5% or Rs 6,000 to around Rs 1,21,000 a tonne in sync with the
firming up of the global prices.
The global price of aluminium crossed the $2,500 per tonne mark recently.
The global production of aluminium currently stands at 39 to 40 million
tonnes per annum. The demand is also around the same level.
