    This document describes a food/polymer grade hexane (FGH/PGH) technology jointly licensed by IndianOil and Engineers India Limited. The technology uses a catalytic hydrogenation process to produce hexane with benzene content less than 500 ppm for FGH and 100 ppm for PGH. It involves fractionating a narrow boiling cut of hexane and sending it to a fixed bed reactor where hydrogenation reactions reduce benzene, olefins, and aromatics over a catalyst. Two commercial units of 28,000 TPA and 20,000 TPA capacity have been successfully operating in India since 2001 and 2012 respectively to produce FGH and PGH hexane.

    FOOD/ POLYMER GRADE HEXANE (FGH/PGH) TECHNOLOGY

    Introduction

    Advantages

    Food Grade Hexane (FGH) specifications are


    becoming stringent especially w.r.t. benzene
    content and the conventional clay treatment
    process has been replaced by hydrogenation
    process. The technology is jointly licensed by
    IndianOil and Engineers India Limited (EIL).

    Simple process configuration.

    Proprietary reactor internals.

    Backed by design
    experience of EIL.

    Pilot plant data bank & evaluation facilities.

    Feed/product/catalyst
    facilities.

    Commissioning and operating experience of


    hydroprocessing units.

    Excellent
    technical
    troubleshooting expertise.

    Process Description

    Narrow boiling cut (63-70C) is prepared


    from fractionator and sent to a fixed bed
    hydro-processing reactor where it is mixed
    with hydrogen over a catalyst bed at
    temperature of 90-160C and pressure of 1525 kg/cm2.
    The
    main
    chemical
    reactions
    are
    desulphurization, aromatic and olefin
    saturation. These reactions are carried out on
    mono-functional catalyst.
    Reactor effluent is separated into gas and
    liquid in a separator and product liquid is
    sent to the product tank.

    Salient Features

    Catalytic process for hydrogenation of


    benzene to cyclohexane and olefins to
    respective alkanes.

    FGH having benzene content of <500 ppm


    and PGH of <100 ppm benzene are produced
    from feed benzene of 23 wt%.

    The typical feed to the FGH unit is heart cut


    hexane stream having boiling range 63-70C.
    However, the process offers flexibility of
    producing FGH/ PGH from either straight
    run or side stream of Naphtha Hydrotreater
    unit.

    and

    Commercialization

    A 28000 TPA unit is running successfully at


    IndianOil's Gujarat Refinery since its
    commissioning in 2001 for production of
    hexane meeting FGH/PGH specifications
    (benzene < 100 ppm).

    Another unit of 20000 TPA capacity is


    running successfully at HMEL's Bhatinda
    Refinery since its commissioning in 2012 for
    production of hexane meeting FGH/PGH
    specifications.
