Cauvery Basin Refinery (Shift Manager deputation)
Operations improvements:
1. for additional crude receipt (100 trucks/day
received in 4th
naphtha product tank ,by converting it
for crude receipt) timely action saved capital cost &
construction time
2. CDU distillation temp reduced from 370 to 347 not
effecting other products energy conservation
3.CDU capacity increased from .5-.65 mmt Without
investment
Wax plant –contributions
a. feed slack wax was inadequate and so product wax&
byproduct foots oil were recirculated to feed tank till
wax is spec feed stock conservation
b. condensed solvent is reused to vacuum filter
without pump eliminated slop tank &reprocessing
through furnace circulation energy conservation
c. product wax molding unit caught in fire and plant
was s/d –alternate drum filling and prilling were
initiated
d. byproduct foots oil was initiated and marketed as
new product
e. waste product wax was reclamation initiated as
product waste recovery & elimination
