21 May 2013 Evaluate

State-owned Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) has successfully developed and commercialised a technology to co-process non-edible vegetable oil in the existing Diesel Hydrotreating (DHDT) units of a petroleum refinery to make bio-diesel. This will help advance the use of non-edible oil extracted from plants like Jatropha (bio-diesel) in auto fuels.

This technology for co-processing of Jatropha oil has been developed by the R&D Centre of IOC located at Faridabad. The company, during the development of this process technology, has also developed a process for de-metallisation and de-gumming of vegetable oils.

IOC is the largest enterprise in the country and the foremost ranked Fortune Global 500 Company in India and has presence in the complete hydrocarbon value chain from downstream refining & marketing, pipeline transportation, Petrochemicals, E&P and Gas Marketing.
