Hydrogenation Plant
SPEC's
Hydrogenation process operate on Dead End principle and
is used for increase of the melting point of unsaturated
oils,fats and fatty acids. Hydrogenation reaction is carried
out under hydrogen gas pressure in presence of Nickel catalyst
, high temperature and nil moisture conditions such that
addition of hydrogen molecule across the double bond or
repositioning of double bond converts liquid oils to hard
fats with selected higher melting points. These hardened
fats are then used generally in combination for the formulation
and processing of vegetable ghee (vanaspati), margarine,
shortening, confectionery and other cooking fats besides
other industrial applications i.e. soap, stearic acid, etc.
SPEC
offers hydrogenation plant with capacities ranging from
1 ton per batch to 15 tons per batch. The plant can be supplied
with automation to controlled parameter operations.
Main Features and Advantages of Hydrogenation
-
Simple operation
- Process
control is accurately monitored through instrumentation
- Precise
control of various parameters such as temperature, gas
pressure and catalyst dosage enables similar quality batch
after batch.
- Economy
The superior reactor and agitator design assures proper
selectivity, optimum gas consumption, low power consumption and
higher production due to lower reaction time.
