Stallion India Fluorochemicals has secured environmental clearance (EC) from the State Environment Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA), Rajasthan, for its proposed R-32 manufacturing facility.
The plant will be located at Plot No. SP3-10 in the RIICO Industrial Area, Ukhaliya, Tehsil Hurda, District Bhilwara, Rajasthan, and will have an annual production capacity of 10,000 metric tonnes per annum (MTPA) of R-32 refrigerant. In addition, the facility will generate 46,460 MTPA of hydrochloric acid (HCl, 30 per cent) as a by-product. The project also includes the manufacture of non-EC blended refrigerants—such as R-410A, R-407C, R-404A, R-507A, R-454B, R-513A, R-515B, R-449A and R-448A—with a combined capacity of 7,500 MTPA.
The approval clears the way for Stallion India Fluorochemicals to expand its manufacturing footprint and support the rising domestic demand for refrigerants.
