| Exchange Disseminated Time | Balaji Amines Ltd (BAL) has informed BSE that the Company has successfully commissioned Gamma Butyro Lactone (GBL) plant with a capacity of 18 MT / day, this product is developed through in-house Research & Development process with catalytic dehydrogenation. Previously the Company used to import GBL from multinational companies abroad. This GBL plant is first of its kind in India and is a 100% import substitute.
BAL need not depend on import of GBL and the requirement can be fully met from captive production capacity. This would contribute in terms of low cost of raw material for manufacture of N Methyl 2 Pyrrolidone (NMP) and also in serving the domestic and export markets.
The hydrogen produced by dehydrogenation is being utilized for running the boilers, which will also further lower the cost of NMP. For the first time in India, a boiler is run through, using hydrogen as fuel by BAL. |
