India Urea Plant Revived by RCF and DoF

India’s Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers (RCF) together with the Department of Fertilizers (DoF) plan to revive India's already mothballed plants due to rising demand and shortages of fertilizers. Currently, India is importing 5 to 6 million tonnes of urea on top of 20 million tonnes local production.

RCF and DOF planning to revive Hindustan Fertilizer Corporation’s Durgapur plant in West Bengal, which was earlier a naphtha plant, and Fertilizer Corporations of India’s coal-based Talcher plant in Orissa which both are now at the first stage of our feasibility study to produce 100,000 tonnes/year of urea.

The revival plan is expected to be completed in 2012 subject to assurance by the Petroleum Ministry of natural gas to supply within three-to-four years for manufacturing urea.
