INTRODUCTION TO IFFCO

IFFCO: A CO-OPERATIVE IN TRUE SPIRIT

Brief:

IFFCO – Indian Farmers Fertilizers Cooperative Limited was established on 3rd November 1967 with a modest membership of 57 cooperative societies. IFFCO’s core objective was to produce and make available the best quality Fertilisers to the Indian farmers in order to make the country self sufficient in agricultural production. IFFCO’s share capital, which stood at Rs. 6 lakhs during its inception, has risen to a whopping share capital of Rs. 421.08 crores.



Initially, IFFCO set up its plants at Kalol and Kandla in Gujarat which were commissioned in 1975. Subsequently, it commissioned plants at Phulpur and Aonla in U.P. in the year 1981 and 1988 respectively. Recently IFFCO has acquired an NPK/DAP and Phosphoric acid facility at Paradeep in Orrisa. In addition to this, IFFCO has entered the international market with its venture of ICS Senegal, Qeshm Project (Iran), Indo Egypt Fertiliser Co. and OMIFCO. OMIFCO is IFFCO’s latest venture into the international market and is the result of IFFCO’s agreement with Oman Oil Company (OOC) for Nitrogenous fertiliser project.

During the year IFFCO produced 61.54 lakh tones fertiliser material registering overall capacity utilization of 101 % for nitrogenous and 114 % for Phosphatic fertiliser. It contributed 18.3 % of country’s total nitrogenous fertiliser production and 23.5 % of total Phosphatic fertiliser production in the same period.

One thing inevitable to be mentioned is that IFFCO is an ISO 14001 certified company.



INTRODUCTION TO IFFCO - KANDLA

IFFCO’s plant at Kandla was built at a cost of about of Rs. 30 crores with two streams having a licensed capacity of 127,000 tons of P2O5. This plant was designed and installed by M/S. Dorr Oliyer Ind. The plant was commissioned on 26th November 1974 and commercial production was started on 1st January 1975. With an increased demand for complex fertiliser, the capacity was doubled by expanding at a cost of Rs. 28.8 crores. Two more streams have been


The Indian Institute of Planning and Managementadded with the license capacity increasing from 127,000 MT P2O5 per annum to 260,000 MT P2O5 per annum.

IFFCO’s plant at Kandla is located on the water front adjacent to Kandla Port Trust’s oil jetty. The Kandla plant produces NPK 1, NPK 2 and DAP types of phosphoric fertilisers having grades of 10 : 26 : 26, 12 : 32 : 16 and 18 : 46 : 00 respectively in terms of N : P2O5 : K2O.

As far as location is concerned, the location of IFFCO KANDLA is most beneficial in reducing its costs. The following factors help them in reducing costs.



Transport Facilities :

Via Rail :

Easy accessibility to the services of Western Railway which has a vast network through out the country, enables IFFCO Kandla procure raw materials from different parts of the country as well as dispatch its final product to the same.

Via Road :

The well established road transport facility enables IFFCO Kandla to transport its good through out the state in an efficient manner.

Via Sea :

Proximity to one of the major ports of the country enables IFFCO to get its imported raw materials in an efficient and hassle free manner.

Favourable Labour Climate:

A favourable labour climate is the most important factor in location decisions. Labour climate is a function of wage rate, training requirements, attitude towards work, worker productivity and union strength, which is practiced at IFFCO – Kandla.

Other Factors:

Other important factors that may emerge includes utility cost (energy and water etc.), land cost, room for expansion, construction cost, cost of shuffling people and materials between plants.



LAYOUT

The plant layout at IFFCO – Kandla is the “Hybrid” type of layout. It is a combination of the process and product layout because some portion of the facility at IFFCO – Kandla are arranged in a process layout and others are arranged in a product layout. The plant is divided into 5 floors. The different floors are divided as under:

Ground Floor – Combustion Chamber Primary Product Elevator Secondary Product Elevator

The demand forecasting for IFFCO-KANDLA is done by its head office. The head office has a vendor list from which it sends raw material

requisition to the vendors. These in turn send tenders to the company and the company selects those vendors who quote the lowest prices, with quality material and with a quick delivery time. And one thing to

be mentioned here is that the whole process is so transparent that there are very less probability of manipulation in the company. IFFCO

has a lead time of 3 months.

If the raw materials received are not be able to meet company’s expectations, then the materials are returned back to the vendor and if this happens frequently the vendor is blacklisted.

IFFCO has a continuous process so as soon as it receives the raw material, they immediately start their production.

PROCESS DESCRIPTION

NPK GRADE 1:

Kandla phase 1 consists of four identical streams with common raw material, product handling, product storage and bagging facilities. The manufacturing process takes place with conventional slurry granulation process which consists of ammonization of slurry with 1:4 mole ratios with the help of vertical agitated vessel known as PN tank. About 70% of total requirement end into tank and 30% of it feed as a scrubbing medium to bring nutrient back to the system.

The exothermic reaction taking place between ammonia and phosphoric acid, which becomes slurry containing about 18-20% of water is fed in granulator. If any further ammonization is needed it can be satisfied with the help of extra supply of ammonia or urea. Here mole ratio maintained is about of 1:80 along with addition of raw material mainly available according to grade to be produced. The addition of potash, filler and recycle material is carried out at this stage only.


The Indian Institute of Planning and ManagementThe granulator discharge has about 2.5% of moisture which is

sent further for drying operation. The discharge is of dryer, getting dried with the help of co-current flow of hot air resulting from combustion of furnace oil. The dried material discharge is elevated with the bucket type elevator and fed into double deck vibrating screen. The screen separates the oversize and undersize products. The oversize product is further crushed in pulverizers and then sent to the granulator. This product is taken to the cooler where temperature is brought down with the help of counter current flow of air.

The discharge from cooler over common product conveyor carries the product from all steams to storage silos. Steam is generated at boiler plant. Steam is used for flushing pipelines, vessels and slurry nozzle of granulator.

The scrubbing system is distributed in four areas. Fumes scrubber. Dryer scrubber. Cooler scrubber. Dust scrubber.

The first three are venturi cyclonic type. Scrubber liquor supplemented by fresh phosphoric acid feed is circulated by pumps in all the scrubbers except the cooler scrubber where only water is circulated. Dust laden air from the dryer, cooler and other equipments pass through cyclones where a major portion of the dust is separated before being scrubbed in the respective scrubbers.

Fumes from the preneutraliser and granulator are scrubbed in the fumes scrubber. Each scrubber is provided with a fan for creating the required draft. The scrubbed gases are let out into the atmosphere through a common stack. Unreacted ammonia is collected from granulator which is scrubbed with liquor, and liquor is further sent to the vessel.



NPK GRADE 2:

First of all, slurry is prepared directly into pipe reactor instead P.N. tank as NPK 1. In this pipe reactor there is mixing of H3PO4

(Ortho Phosphoric acid) and NH3 (Ammonia) taking place. The NH3 is spread at 7 Kg / Cu.Cm from main pipeline. Here in this case MAP (Mono Ammonium Phosphate) is produced in granulator.

The mixture from pipe reactor is spread into granulator and also the raw material like Urea, Filler, and Potash added with the feed quantity in such a way that the percentage moisture in the granulator must be 3 %. Here the moisture should be maintained at 3 % because if the moisture content is higher than 3 % then there is a chance of the material getting choked in the granulator. In the granulator, small granules of MAP is produced which further comes into the pipe reactor, which contains NH3 spread at 7 Kg / Sq.Cm. pressure. Since the DAP produced in pipe reactor is wet in nature, it is sent to the dryer.

Now the product from the dryer is sent to the primary elevator from which the product goes to V – shapes screen. In this screen there are three particles:

Oversize Product size and Undersize

Product size particles are those having size of about 3 to 4 mm. While the oversized is sent to the crusher, the undersized is directly sent to the fine conveyor from where it is further recycled in the granulator and the product from the screen is sent to the hopper from where it comes to the cooler. From the cooler the product goes into the product elevator and then 102 conveyors take them to bagging.



MAINTENANCE SYSTEM:

This system keeps check on preventive maintenance as well as mechanical maintenance. Checks are done frequently to know whether any machine requires maintenance before it breaks down. It takes vibration reading of various machines. It also prepares performance reports of various machines. This system automatically highlights vibration reading exceeding 100 microns & on that management can know which machine or parts need to be repaired. So this system helps the management to save the machine from major break down & also helps to reduce the machine undue cost. Thus this system helps in enabling a smooth production process.

For this purpose, IFFCO has recently developed new software named DCS (Distributed Control System).

There are a host of other allied benefits, such as: a) More efficient Plant operation through better control of operating variables.

b) Safer Plant operation by minimizing human error.

c) Better accessibility to Plant data on MIS for quicker decision making.

d) Elimination of faulty tripping of Plants.

Due to this system, IFFCO can easily keep check on speed, accuracy, variations and any faulty process during the production process.



QUALITY MANAGEMENT

Laboratory is another important section where the raw material as well as the final product is brought to check whether it is up to the mark or not. Laboratory is divided into six different sections which are as follows:

Raw Material Section Sampling SectionAuto Analysis SectionWater Testing SectionBags Testing Section EPC Section



HOT SECTION

In this section all the work related to heat or creating heat is being done. Usually the work done here is testing of raw material and quality of raw material.

SAMPLING SECTION

After the product is produced, it is brought to this section from the production unit. Here the product which is brought after each and every hour is the granulated product. The sample brought is approximately of 1 kg weight. Then the sample is divided in two equal parts and is ground into a mixture. The powder is then diluted with acid to a make a solution. This solution is taken to the auto sampling room



AUTO ANALYZER SECTION

This section is fully automatic and computerized. In this section the solution made in the sampling section is brought every hour and analyzed on auto passed analyzer where the sample analysis of the product NPK is automatically divided into 4 parts i.e. N (Nitrogen), P (Phosphoric Acid), K (Potash) and urea. As the auto analyzer is connected to computer, the result can be seen on the computer monitor and accordingly the percentage of the sample is matched to the standard percentage that is :

Grade 1 : 10 : 26 : 26Grade 2 : 12 : 32 : 16DAP : 18 : 46 : 00

The result is also monitored on the computer installed in the production unit and if any difference is seen in the percentage of the materials used, then accordingly the changes are made in those materials.

WATER TESTING SECTION

In this section, the water is brought for testing after its demineralization (the water is dematerialized in the offsite section). If the water contains any chloride in it, it is sent for mineralization as chlorine water may not be useful in the boilers.

BAG TESTING SECTION

Bags testing section: Here the NPK, DAP and Urea are brought for checking its quality before going to the bagging department.

The checking is done in terms of:

1. No. of stitches in 1 Sq. inch 2. Length and width according to the weight 3. End stitches4. Thickness


The Indian Institute of Planning and Management5. Breaking strength etc.

EPC SECTION (Environment Pollution Control Section):

IFFCO Kandla’s philosophy is to prevent pollutant discharge into environment rather than to control after discharge. This is based on the fact that it is not the pollutant that causes the pollution but it is their effects which causes the pollution. Hence Kandla plant adjusts its plant operation with proper instrumentation to process parameters to achieve pollution prevention. Hence IFFCO believes in spending to prevent pollution rather than to install treatment units.

- Gases and dust from dryer and various equipments are sucked by dryer fans through a cyclone to a Venturi scrubber.- Dust laden gases from product cooler are being scrubbed in cooler scrubber which is a cylindrical scrubber with spray nozzles.-The gases are discharged from the fan to the main stack after scrubbing liquor is drained and further it is retuned to the scrubber effluent tank. -There is no liquid effluent discharge from the plant as it is decide on zero effluent discharge due to negative water balance.
