    1. Mono Esterification Procedure: i. Ensure sample and
     Open SBO charging valve and charge bottom valve of reactor
    SBO as per recipe. are closed
     Start Agitation and N2 purging at ii. Ensure vent valve of
    controlled rate (oil bubbling). condenser is open before
     Charge penta through main hole. charging.
     Charge LiOH and NaOH catalysts iii. N2 purging prevents
    through main hole. oxidation of oil.
     Box up main hole and open HTO inlet iv. Make sure drain valve of
    valves slowly to increase temperature. cooling coil is open to
     Increase reactor temperature to 255 0C. avoid pressure build up in
     Hold this temp. for ½ hr. coil.
     Perform clarity test to check completion v. Take methanol and
    of mono stage. sample in 1: 2.
     Wait for ½ hour more if sample is hazy.
     Stop heating at Mono Esterification
    completion.

    2. Cooling Procedure :
     Open cooling coil reactor out let valve i. Cooling water can be
    and close cooling water supply line drain used if Raw water is not
    valve available.
     Now open Raw water for cooling process
    and continue cooling to achieve 180 oC.
     At 180 oC stop cooling and open drain
    valve of cooling coil.
    3. Charging of PA and OX : i. Stop N2 purging before
     Open main hole Charge PA and complete opening main hole.
    this activity in shortest possible time. ii. Close vapour line
     Box up main hole ,open butterfly valve butterfly valve and stop
    and start agitation. agitation before PA
     Charge 200 kg OX and start heating. charging.
    iii. Maintain water and OX
    level in separator to
    ensure continuous reflux.

    4. Further Processing: i. Check Color at 200 oC .


     Increase reactor temperature to 230-240 ii. Apply N2 blanket to
    o
    C. maintain color.
     Ensure normal reflux and maintain temp. iii. Take sample every hour.
     Add OX to maintain reflux and to control
    temperature.
     After 1 hr of 240 oC start sampling for
    viscosity and Acid value analysis.
     At viscosity 3.5 seconds bubble tube and
    Acid value 10gm KOH/gm of sample
    stop heating and apply cooling as
    mentioned above.
     During cooling viscosity must be above 4
    seconds bubble tube.
     Add 1000 kg MTT in reactor at 190 oC to
    stop further polymerization .

    5. MTT Charging and shifting in F-101: i. Close vent valve of


    o
     At 150 C stop cooling thinning vessel and open
     Now material is ready for shifting. N2 valve.
     Add remaining MTT in thinning vessel ii. Open vent valve of T.V.
    and start shifting. before shifting.
