Chlorine Alkali Plant - Rehabilitation of
Electrolyzer System :
Chlorine Alkali
Plant has produced chlorine using mercury
cell electrolysis technology until 1997.
After a two-staged investment, in 2000,
mercury cells were dismantled and membrane
cell technology was adopted in 42 membrane
cells. In the new technology, however, the
useful life of anodes and cathodes is
limited to 6 years, the renewal of these has
become necessary to maintain the production
of chlorine in this plant and production of
VCM and PVC in the Complex. The project also
comprises the installation of an additional
membrane cell to compensate for chlorine
shortages during project implementation. An
agreement was signed on 1st
August, 2006 with Chlorine Engineers
Corporation Ltd. ( Japan ) for supply of
anodes and meshes. Contract negotiations are
being held for other parts of the project
with the same firm.
