CPO with 5% FFA (1000 MT) Extraction Vitamin E (1.5 – 2.0 MT) Refining PFAD (65 MT) Fractionation RBD Palm Stearin (185 MT) RBD Palmolein (745 MT) Requirements for Palm Plantation Based on Bio-Refinery • Minimum Area: 60.000 Hectares • FFB • CPO: 1000 TPD • PKO: 100 TPD Mass Balance
A detergent based complex of Palm Stearin creates tangible advantages • Sustainable value creation from Palm Stearin • Independent revenue platforms • Pharmaceuticals (Glycerine) • Fuel (Biodiesel – C18 rich) • Alkylates (C12-14, C16) • Detergents and Home & Personal care products • Based on renewal resource • Environmentally friendly project
RBD PS (185 MT) Transesterification Glycerine (18 MT) C1214 Ester (2.5 MT) C16 Ester (110 MT) C18 Ester (71 MT) Distillation Hydrogenation Amidation / Amides Ethoxylation / ME Ethoxylates Sulfonation MES (145 MT) Blending / Drying HPC Products Detergents (725 MT) Typical mass balance highlighting various steps in the process
CH2-OOC-R1 CH2-OH R1-COO-R’ Catalyst CH-OOC-R2 + 3R’OH R2-COO- R’ + CH2-OH @ 60 - 70˚C CH2-OOC-R3 R3-COO- R’ CH2-OH Step 1: Transesterification step converts a triglyceride to esters and glycerol Triglyceride + Alcohol Esters + Glycerol
Step 2: Distillation of fractions is done via a three stage conversion column C1214 C16 C18
Step 3: A continuous fixed bed column is used for hydrogenation step
METHYL ESTER 1V0.1 SULFONATION DIGESTION BLEACHING MeOH RECOVERY NEUTRALIZATION DRYING METHYL ESTER SULFONATES (MES) (>85% ACTIVE AND <5% DISALT) Step 4: Sulfonation of esters yields methyl ester sulfonates (MES)
Sulfur (95) SO3 gas generation C16 methyl ester (662) Sulfonation Methanol Recovery MESA digestion Methanol Makeup (40) 50% H2O2(35.6) MESA bleaching Distillation (226) 50% Caustic (242) Neutralization Drying MES kg MES 843 Di-salt 49 Sodium methyl sulfate 50 Unsulfonated 20 Na2SO4 10 Moisture 26 Hydrogen Peroxide 1 Methanol 1 Total 1,000 C16 MES(MW 372) has the typical mass balance as shown in the flowsheet
Palm Kernel C8-c18 Coconut C12-C14 Palm Stearin C16-C18 Soya C18 Tallow C16-C18 Different forms of MES dried and stripped can be obtained as final product
Huish products are used in a variety of products both powder and liquid
Typical capital expenditure for a palm based detergent complex is about $ 50 million
Estimated costs for esterification, distillation and MES production
Project provides multiple advantages across different platforms • Integrated complex with optimum value addition • Sustainability using renewable raw materials • MES in dry flakes form - convenience of use • Biodiesel EN 14214 compliant (summer grade) • Independent revenue platforms
