pilot plant ::

Harnessing technology to find solutions

DNL's continuous endeavour to provide its customers with new technology and innovative products has taken a giant leap with the start of its Pilot Plant at Pune.

The Pilot Plant is at the core of Deepak Nitrite corporate philosophy - To continuously experiment, innovate and evolve new solutions for its customers. It is yet another symbol of the company’s commitment to its customers. The plant facilitates its customers to experiment with their formulation and develop new chemicals at a lower cost, and a faster time to market. It is meant to serve as a catalyst for the customers to transform their formulas into newer markets and healthier bottomlines.

The Plant has helped in the scaling up of the experimental products from gram, offered at the lab scale, to up to 100 kg and above. The facilities at the Pilot Plant are designed to simulate processes - from pre-processing to tests to finished products.

The state-of-art Pilot Plant has process facilities like reactors, distillation columns, centrifuges, heat exchangers, tanks, filters, pumps, etc. Its process development laboratory boasts of a kilo scale laboratory with well developed platforms for carrying out reactions and other processes. The laboratory also has two fume hoods for hazardous reactions.
