Other Facilities

Product Handling
There are in all four streams for Urea and three streams for phosphatic fertilizers for bagging and dispatch.

Auxiliary Boiler
The Ammonia and Urea plants are supplemented with an auxiliary boiler of 60MT/hr steam capacity at 75kg/cm2 pressure and 480°C.

Purge Gas Recovery Unit (PGRU)
The productivity of the Ammonia plant was increased by installing a PGRU in May 1984 of 4,800 NM3/hr.

Captive Power Plant (CPP)
To overcome the frequent interruptions in power supply, resulting in equipment failure and wastage of energy during shut down and start ups of the plants, a Captive Power Plant with eight Wartsila Diesel Engine was commissioned. This has ensured smooth functioning and improved life of all the plants and critical equipment through the steady supply of quality power captively produced. The power plant meets the total power needs (35 MW) for the entire complex.

Imported Ammonia & Phosphoric Acid Terminal (IAT)
The terminal facilitates direct unloading from a ship. Ammonia is stored in a 10,000 MT atmospheric storage tank. Phosphoric Acid is unloaded into two tanks of 8,000 MT each.

 

Water Reservoir
The entire complex requires 2.5 Million Gallons (MG) per day of clarified water which is supplied by the Mangalore City Corporation from the Netravathi River. In order to overcome the problem of water shortages, especially during summer months, two reservoirs of 6 MG and 18 MG capacity were constructed within the factory premises.

Bulk Storage (Silo)
For Urea and phosphatic fertilizers, there are two separate silos that can hold 30,000 MT and 10,000 MT respectively of bulk product.
