Embracing Sustainable Manufacturing Practices For Clean & Green Environment

 

The chemical industry is a key contributor to social and economic development. Over the past couple of years, the Indian economy has been resilient. As the country continues its growth, the chemical industry stands ready to contribute to this growth by improving the ease of doing business, increasing self-sufficiency, and boosting incremental manufacturing output. However, as global environmental concerns escalate, the importance of sustainable manufacturing practices for these chemical suppliers cannot be overstated. Sustainability is high in every industry, The focus has grown significantly, and the chemical industry is not an exception. Various Industries are changing their ways of using resources as a result of global warming and climate change.  

How sustainability creates value?

The Pressure is also on for the manufacturing and chemical industry because chemicals are embedded in more than 96% of manufactured goods. Specialty chemical manufacturers play a crucial role in various industries such as agriculture, fertilizers, oil & gas industry. However, with increasing environmental concerns and growing consumer awareness, it has become imperative for these specialty chemicals manufacturers to promote sustainable practices and innovative solutions in every customer industry they serve. Customers and investors prioritize companies who are considering environmental practices more seriously. As a result, chemical manufacturers are making green manufacturing models and building consumer confidence.



What Should the Specialty Chemicals Manufacturers be Thinking About?

·         Protecting the Environment through Responsible Production - Focusing on resource efficiency and waste reduction, Manufacturers can reduce their impact on the ecosystem and reduce pollution.

·         Reducing greenhouse gas (e.g., Chlorofluorocarbon, carbon dioxide, ozone, methane) emissions

·         Reducing energy consumption and quality defects - The specialty chemical industry is poised to grow through the development of high-quality chemicals with low carbon footprints, known as green chemicals.

·         Eliminating indirect costs such as employee travel, inputs, suppliers, raw materials, etc.

Sustainability in the Chemical Industry

Several leading companies in the specialty chemicals industry have committed to sustainability and are taking significant steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. There is still plenty of progress to be made, particularly for the rest of the market, with a greater focus on green feedstocks, clean thermal energy, sustainable production, and circular economy initiatives. A safe eco-diversity policy needs to be adopted and implemented along with continuous research and development, innovation, and incorporation of biotechnology. Using artificial intelligence, businesses can contribute to inedible value by taking into account the ecological, social, and economic environment in which they operate.

Chemtex Speciality Limited is dedicated to promoting sustainable business practices, with a strong focus on three key sustainability initiatives: Ecology, Economy, and Evolve. The unwavering commitment to decarbonizing energy sources, pollution control, and identifying opportunities for reducing greenhouse gas emissions to create a cleaner environment.

Replacing Sodium Hypochlorite with Double Chain QAC based Disinfectant

Replacing Sodium Hypochlorite with Double Chain QAC based Disinfectant Remember that pungent smell when mass disinfection of public places occurs. That same irritating smell you can relate to in swimming pools, and your eyes itch and redden, and your skin itches, and there is a big board saying “Chlorine in pool”, that’s hypochlorous acid, viz., when sodium hypochlorite breaks down. Sodium hypochlorite/ Hypo (NaOCl) is inorganic chlorine based liquid disinfectant, available as aqueous solutions of 5.25% - 6.15% (household bleach) or concentrated 12% NaOCl solutions. Large quantities are also used as a disinfectant in water and wastewater treatment and sanitary equipment. In food processing, sodium hypochlorite is used to sanitize food preparation equipment, in fruit and vegetable processing, mushroom production, hog, beef and poultry production, and fish processing. Typical Uses of Hypo: ·       2%: Shock Chlorination of Wells · ...

Role of Polyelectrolytes in Wastewater Treatment

  Effluent Treatment or Industrial wastewater treatment consists of mechanisms and processes which are used to treat water that have been contaminated by anthropogenic, industrial or commercial activities prior to its release into the environment. Industrial wastewater serves as one of the important pollution sources that add up in polluting the water environment. The sewage sludge produced is subjected to sludge treatment. Many problems are associated with wastewater collection and treatment such as foaming, solid accumulation, high BOD, sludge de-watering, heavy metals and offensive odour.   But such treatments are no more complicated processes, since there are chemicals that are applicable for the treatment. These chemicals follow various treatment mechanisms in various different standards, which include from chemically treating raw wastewater before discharging it into the environment, to recovering valuable resources from sludge treatment and wastewater. Conventional tr...

The Role and Importance of Demulsifiers in Oil and Gas Industry

  Demulsifier helps to extract oil and purify water, which is especially important in crude oil production and wastewater treatment.   It is a substance that separates an emulsion into components and destabilizes water-in-oil emulsions. In Crude production, Water-in-oil emulsions are typically produced, owing to the presence of emulsifying agents such as surfactants, slits, fine solids, drilling mud, clay, water, and other impurities. These impurities are undesirable need to be removed which would otherwise shackle the quality of the crude.   How does It work? Demulsifier consists of two liquids that are not mixed with each other and tiny droplets of one liquid are evenly distributed throughout the volume of the other. This kind of liquid is called dispersion medium, and the droplets are called dispersed phase. During the demulsification process, a demulsifier accumulates on the surface of the droplets and groups them together.   The process of separating a...
