INDUSTRIES
INTRODUCTION TO GCCI
The construction of the GCCI at Abu Kammash is one of the largest
industrial projects carried out in the LIBYAN Jamahiriya . The vital
factors of this project to Libya are :
THE ELECTROLYSIS
The wet salt from the salt plant is converted into brine,
purified by chemical treatment and then electrolyzed in
mercury cells to produce chlorine, hydrogen and sodium
hydroxide as 50% solution.
The chlorine is dried and compressed and the major part
utilized for the production of vinyl chloride monomer . The
remainder is liquefied for sale in cylinders and drums.
The 50% caustic soda solution are concentrated to produce
a fused product from which 98% concentration are packed
into plastic sacks .
Sodium Hypochlorite is produced as a solution by the
reaction of chlorine with sodium hydroxide solution .
The 50% caustic soda solution is being sold as a final product
which is transported by sea, road or tankers.
Chlorine Cylinders
The dry resin is stored in silos and then packed into 25 Kg paper
sacks , palletized and shrink wrapped or transported by road
tankers.
AUXILIARY UNITS
The Complex is provided with auxiliary units to supply the
production plants with essential services.
Sea Water intake: The sea water pumping station, located
on the sea bridge, provides sea water for cooling
purposes and feeds to the seawater desalination unit.
Sea Water Desalination: The sea unit provides 220
tons/hour of fresh water for use in the Complex.
Water Hardening Unit: This provides drinking water for the
Complex and Camps and fire fighting water for the
Complex.
