Tuticorin Alkali Chemicals & Fertilisers (TFL) has started commercial production of green soda ash, an ingredient used to make products of everyday use. The company achieved this breakthrough by leveraging cutting edge carbon-capture technology to establish carbon-neutrality in the manufacture of soda ash. 

To produce green soda ash, TFL set up a CO2 Recovery Plant to capture carbon from coal used as fuel in its boiler for steam production. The carbon is converted into biomass fuel to eliminate fossil-fuel usage, thus achieving carbon-neutrality in the manufacturing process. Further, TFL uses green ammonium, imported from Egypt, to produce its near-zero soda ash.

Tuticorin Alkali Chemicals & Fertilisers’ principal activity is the manufacture and sale of soda ash, ammonium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, ammonium bicarbonate and bioproducts.
