Plant Engineers (India) is a company
dedicated to providing effective service to the resins and
coatings industries in India. The service includes plant
design, fabrication and project management.
The Company has Twenty years of experience in the plant,
adhesives and resin industries in successful installation and
operations of plants. In addition we have a number of
associations with particular skills in the resins. coatings
and adhesive industries that we can call on for specialised
work.
We at Plant Engineers (India) have spent
most of our years in manufacturing and designing plants to
reduce 'cycle time and improve reproducibility.
This has been achieved with esters principally by utilising
high solvent volumes to remove water of reaction and so shift
the equilibrium to the right.
Numerous other benefits have accrued from these design
refinements including better reproducibility, better color,
controlled tollerance and acid value. End point control is
also more easily determined.
The options available for achieving this include vaccum
processing, high inert gas sparge rates and solvent processing
and also through the use of catalysts, but the most successful
method has been to efficiently remove the water of reaction.
Plants designed in this way are capable to produce a wide
range of resins apart from alkyds like saturated -unsaturated
polysters, rosin esters, amino and phenolic resins, epoxy
resins, solution acrylics, wood adhesives and water based
emulsions.
To achieve high reflux rates efficiency, critical design
elements include hot oil heater design, reactor heat transfer
efficiency condensor-effeciency, separator design, reflux
system, reactor temperature control, reactor cleaning system,
reactor discharge system, downstream tankage, filtration and
filling to handle the rapid throughout, which we have
successfully implemented in our plants AND HAVE ACHIEVED
