KBR has announced that Chambal Fertilizers and Chemicals Limited (CFCL), Gadepan, India has successfully commissioned a new plant using KBR's Purifier ammonia technology, which is now the world's most energy efficient plant per ton of ammonia produced.
CFCL has two existing ammonia plants that were revamped by KBR in 2009 to increase production and lower energy consumption. CFCL constructed and commissioned its third ammonia plant with a production capacity of 2200 MTPD, which has achieved an energy consumption even lower than the guaranteed value of 6.417 Gcal per metric ton during its test run period, making it the world's most efficient ammonia plant.
"This is another proud milestone for KBR's ammonia technology," said Doug Kelly, KBR President, Technology Solutions. "We are committed to offering our partners energy-efficient and flexible solutions while always striving to improve upon industry benchmarks with many of them previously set by ourselves."
KBR's innovative ammonia technology is valued for its low energy usage, higher reliability and lower capital costs. Since the 1960s, KBR has licensed, engineered or constructed more than 243 ammonia plants worldwide making it the world's leading ammonia technology licensor.
