Petrochemicals & Petroleum Products #1513035

Bitumen is a common binder used in road construction It is principally obtained as a residual product in petroleum refineries after higher fractions like gas, petrol, kerosene and diesel, etc are removed. Indian Standard Institution defines Bitumen as a black or dark brown non-crystalline soil or viscous material having adhesive properties derived from petroleum crude either by natural or by refinery processes.

Grades 60/70&80/100

Cutback Bitumen (Liquid Bitumen) is Bitumen that is dissolved in a solvent. Typical solvents include Naphtha, gasoline and kerosene, white spirit etc. The type of solvent controls the curing time while the amount determines the viscosity of the Cutback Bitumen.Grades MC30(Different grades can be arranged as per requirements)

Cutback bitumens suitable for primer sealing can also be used in the manufacture of pre-mix asphalt, which is used in patch repairs. Cutback bitumens are used extensively in sprayed sealing applications, particularly in cooler weather where they provide improved initial stone retention due to their lower viscosity. Typically, a single application of the appropriate cutback bitumen is sprayed onto the primed pavement onto which aggregate is laid.

Residue wax is the remaining residue when process of manufacturing paraffin wax from slack wax is finished, the main usage is for matches industry since its oil content is about 50% and has strong odor and color is quite brown .Residue wax (foots oil) is final remained product of slack wax after pressing and de-coloring . Residue wax(foots oil) is mix of oil and slack wax. Residue Wax, formally known as Foots oil is a commodity derived from the production of semi refined paraffin wax, having almost 60% result from 100% of slacks provided by the oil refineries .

Uses of residue wax

Brown color, high oiled wax named residue wax (foots oil) used for matches making, lubricants, explosive, fire work. Foots Oil can be used as hydrophobia impregnation material, fuel brick component, raw material for production of grease lubricants, conservation oils, lubricants, tire, rubber and shoe soil industries. Residue wax (foots oil) is also used for Rubber Industries, Tire Industry, Shoe Industry, Plastic Industries, Polish, Match Box and Grease

Packing of residue wax

Residue wax (foots oil) packing is in steel drums new or used to avoid any leakage during transportation. New drum cost is so high that is not economic to be used for packing of foots oil which is residue of paraffin wax producing and is considered as cheapest product of the wax producing process. Used drums are washed to be clean enough to be filled with an oily product.ISOtank and flexi tank are not used for foots oil because it is oily enough to be unloaded without heating it and again it is not economic to use this packing for residue wax.

Fuel oil, (also known as marine fuel or heavy oil) is a fraction obtained from petroleum distillation, either as a distillate or a residue. Broadly speaking, fuel oil is any liquid fuel that is burned in a furnace or boiler for the generation of heat or used in an engine for the generation of power, except oils having a flash point of approximately 40 C (104 F) and oils burned in cotton or wool-wick burners. In this sense, diesel is a type of fuel oil. Fuel oil is made of long hydrocarbon chains, particularly alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatics. The term fuel oil is also used in a stricter sense to refer only to the heaviest commercial fuel that can be obtained from crude oil, i.e. heavier than gasoline and naphtha.
