Key Characteristics
Sustainability was key factor considered while Innova decided to invest on the HIRC. It is designed,
developed and constructed in an economically and environmentally responsible manner. The key
characteristics of this project, which also can be termed as company’s key competitive differentiators, are
listed below
Zero-Waste
The plant is designed and constructed based on the concept of ‘Zero-Waste’ generation. We, at Innova believe that there is no waste in petroleum and petrochemical industry if you possess the right technology. HIRC has incorporated the use of pollution control modules, including wastewater treatment plants and air emission controls with no flaring from the chimneys (wet and dry zig zag scrubbers). Air emission parameters are monitored in real time to ensure emission compliance at all times.
Flexibility in Feedstock selection
Unlike the majority of petroleum and petrochemical companies that design their process with selected product lines and feed stock in mind, Innova, with the assistance of their technical partners, is successful in incorporating all the critical process available in the industry under one roof. Module II of the plant has multiple distillation columns and is designed to run on continuous basis or batch basis and has incorporated multiple receiving vessels. This allows feedstock change in a very short time (less than 4-6 hrs) unlike 1 to 2 weeks in other petrochemical plants. This technology along with the inception of state-of-the-art R&D division gives Innova the enormous flexibility of handling multiple feedstocks ranging from used oils, downgraded fuels, AGO, VGO, solvents, Naphtha, condensate, PyGas, by-products from other petrochemical plants etc. This ensures that the plant capacity utilization is not compromised due to shortage of feedstock.
Fuel
CNG will be used as fuel for the plant utilities in place conventional fuels like gas oil. CNG fuel is known for its environment friendly characteristics and low cost. Design objectives HIRC facility are to process principally five (5) waste or semi- finished hydrocarbon feed stocks targeting higher values. Essentially the complex is capable to produce more than 60% of its productsto circular reuse. Major feed streams to the processing facility are as below:
Energy
Energy is the second major cost in most of the heavy industries. Innova has incorporated many features in their process for energy conservation, for example, Economizers have incorporated for recovering waste heat, Stimulators or agitators have been incorporated to reduce process time of dehydration and there by reduction in energy consumption.
Optimum utilization of Resources
Land: HIRC is designed and constructed in 46,000 Sqm area of land with its unique design of positioning the vertical and horizontal intermediate tanks one on top of the other to ensure maximum space utilization
