Description

(LIMITED EDITION- ONLY PHOTOSTAT COPY AVAILABLE) The chemicals sub-sector of industry in India as a whole (including pharmaceuticals) accounts for about 13% of the total output of the manufacturing sector, 13 to 14% in total exports and 8 to 9% in total imports of the country. The sector contributes about 3% to the GDP. It also contributes 18 to 20% to the exchequer by way of taxes. The size of the sub-sector is estimated at around USD 35 bn (approximately Rs 1575 bn). The basic chemicals make up for nearly 57% of the sub-sector, followed by about 26% of specialty chemicals. The rest is made up of high-end chemicals or what are now termed as knowledge segment. Against an overall installed capacity of around 10 mn tonnes, India produces nearly 8 mn tonne, of an assortment of chemicals. These exclude petrochemicals, but include chlor-alkalis, and dyes and dyestuffs. The chemicals industry is a highly versatile segment in the overall industrial economy of India. It has linkages with almost every other industrial activity, be it food processing, metallurgy, textiles, rubber or leather. There is, in fact, hardly any segment where chemicals do not feature. The industry is broadly segmented into four major categories: Chlor-alkali and inorganic chemicals: caustic soda, soda ash, sulphuric acid, titanium dioxide, carbon black, calcium carbide, aluminium fluoride and others; Organic including alcohol-based chemicals: ethyl glycol, phenols, acetic acid, acetic anhydride, vinyl acetate, monomers, ethylene dichloride, ethylacetate and others; Petrochemicals-based specialities: leather and textile auxiliaries, synthetic resins, rubber chemicals, especially for tyres; and Agro-oriented chemicals: guargum, starch, citric acid, sorbitol, yeast and others. Petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, synthetic fibres, fertilisers and pesticides, paints and dye-stuffs constitute over 85% of the market. The remaining 15% represents a wide range of chemical intermediates and industrial or speciality chemicals which have a market of over Rs 240 bn (including imports of about Rs 35 bn). Against the growth dynamics of the chemical industry as a whole, the industrial chemicals segment covering intermediates and speciality chemicals witnessed a somewhat sluggish growth in recent years. Thereafter some upward trend was in evidence as a con-sequence of a rally in user industries like rubber, leather, food processing, textiles especially man-made fibres and fabrics. Downstream industries like chlorinated benzenes, cosmetics and pesticides also registered positive trends. The industry has remained among the fastest growing sectors of the economy. The chemical industry remains concentrated in the western region, which claims a near 50% share of investment flows. In the western region, Gujarat makes the largest contribution to the chemical industry’s production activity. This book provides detailed project profiles of important chemical industries with its properties, uses & applications, manufacturing processes, process flow sheets, cost estimations.
