  Evolving innovation in oilfield chemicals is one of the key reasons for an exponential growth of the sector. Projected to hit $35 billion market size by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate of 3.2%, the demand of speciality chemicals will be on surge in coming times, with rise in demand for oil & gas feedstock. The progress in field exploration and deep-water drilling advancements will only add to the rise. The industry undergoes most critical processes and operational procedures, and thereby requires easy, smooth and sophisticated methods for exploitation. As a consequence, speciality chemicals for oil and gas have gained enormous attention in recent years, owing to the extensive role they have in hydrocarbon recovery which contributes to the economic growth of state affairs. Three main categories of this industry are Upstream, Midstream and Downstream, where Upstream deals with exploration and production, Midstream with transportation through pipelines and Downstream sector in

Propylene Glycol is a synthetic liquid used in a wide range of applications such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, and manufacturing industries. It is an alcohol that absorbs water and mixes with many solvents, made primarily made by treating propylene oxide from refining petroleum with water. However, propylene glycol is corrosive in nature and oxidizes into five organic acids when exposed to air. Those acids (Glycolic, Glyoxalic, Formic, Carbonic, Oxalic) are highly corrosive and chemically attacks the metal system, causing pitting, pinhole and stress cracking corrosion. Inhibited Propylene Glycol Antifreeze , manufactured by Chemtex Speciality Limited under the brand name “TONO FROST 593” finds extensive use in process cooling and heating systems finding extensive usage as heat-transfer fluid in Food & Beverage industries, such as Beverages & Juices, Breweries & Distilleries, Dairy & Ice Cream, Packaged Food, Fish Processing Units, Pharmaceutical & Bulk Drug

  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 treatment c

  RO (Reverse Osmosis) system is the most widely used potable water treatment process for removal of impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants. RO membranes are designed with a dense, thin, and semi-permeable layer that allows water molecules to pass through while rejecting dissolved solids and other contaminants. The RO membrane is the heart of the RO plant and plays a critical role in determining the quality and quantity of water produced. The RO membrane operates under high pressure and requires continuous cleaning and maintenance to prevent fouling and scaling. But the major issue that surfaces up in such systems is formation of scales due to the build-up of dissolved minerals and salts on the surface of the RO membrane. What causes formation of scales in RO membranes? The level of hardness salts present in the feed water is the foremost reason. When such feed water passes through the RO membrane, concentration of these salts gets precipitated over the surface

  Glycol releases and absorbs huge amount of heat without changing system’s temperature and hence finds its association with chiller system, for process cooling and heating applications. Water, as a coolant, in chillers, possess several kinds of issues such as scaling, corrosion and algal growth. As per this, if glycol is added in water, and pumped through the pipes of a glycol chiller, it manages to slow the freezing rate, even inhibiting bacterial growth within. Glycol is an organic water-miscible antifreeze liquid that is used as a heat transfer fluid which draws away heat, and allows the engine to operate efficiently, with lesser malfunctions and damages to its parts. A process cooling and heating system provides consistent pressure and temperature to industrial process, ensuring highest grade performance. Owing to glycol’s antifreeze property, it helps in cooling of fluid below boiling temperature in order to complete water condensation. Water is used as coolant in most of the c

  General chemicals of the highest quality used in production, laboratory, institutions and research organizations are supplied in accordance with international quality standards.

It is an active ingredient when it comes to water free cleaning and sanitization, and also for dissolving oil, fats, and other non-polar compounds from hard surfaces owing to its ability to quickly vaporize without leaving behind any residues. Often you would see this name on the labels of Alcohol-based Hand Sanitizers. Glacial Acetic Acid ; CH 3 COOH; CAS No. 64-19-7 Simplest carboxylic acid, an important chemical reagent and industrial chemical, in processing cellulose acetate used for photographic film, polyvinyl acetate for wood glue, synthet

Commonly used for exercise, recreation, hydrotherapy, and leisure, swimming pool like any other natural water body is vital and needs regular maintenance for its longer operational ability. This swimming pool maintenance requires various physical, chemical and technological aspects to keep it free of safe, germs free and sparkling at all times and it’s not an easy task. “Nobody likes jumping into a dirty pool” Swimming pool is continuously filled with visibly clean but untreated water, oxidizing minerals, and other materials that might not be good for swimmer’s skin. The conditions around any pool are ideal for microbial growth , which calls for continuous monitoring. Pool water, interior and filter are three major components that need to be taken care of to keep any pool in good and swimmable condition. Now, let us understand some common issues faced by pools. ·          Pool water often gets dirty with leaves, twigs, animal droppings, insects, bugs , etc since it is mostly in

  Cleanliness and hygiene are premier for any hospitality industry, be it ‘Travel & Tourism’, ‘Food & Beverage’, 'Accommodation', or 'Entertainment & Recreation' and the foremost factor that draws us towards them is their cleanliness quotient.
