Value,distilled.
IDHMA engineers, builds and operates the process routes that turn oils, fats and their residues into high-value oleochemicals: fatty acids, esters, amides, amines and pharma-grade actives.
Every refinery produces a residue it undervalues. Inside it are tocopherols, sterols, fatty acids and esters worth more than the oil itself. We build the routes that recover them, and we run those routes ourselves, so what we hand over is proven, not promised.
Eight process routes. One integrated house.
Open any platform to see what it makes, where those products go, and how our engineers think about it.
Molecules that move industries.
From commodity-scale fatty acids to gram-value nutraceutical actives. One portfolio, built on shared feedstocks and shared engineering.
Fatty Acids
Split, distilled and fractionated to cut, from caprylic to erucic.
- Distilled fatty acids, 95%+ FFA
- Stearic, palmitic, oleic fractions
- Lauric, caprylic-capric cuts
- Erucic acid from high-erucic mustard
Esters
Organic and inorganic esters, from fuel to cosmetic and lubricant grades.
- Methyl esters / FAME biodiesel
- Polyol esters: TMP, NPG, PE
- Isopropyl esters: IPM, IPP
- Glycerol & sterol esters
Amides & Amines
Nitrogen derivatives that give plastics, textiles and oilfields their performance.
- Erucamide, oleamide, stearamide
- Ethylene bis-stearamide (EBS)
- Fatty amines & amidoamines
- Imidazolines
Unsaponifiables & Actives
The high-value fraction of oil, concentrated to nutraceutical and pharma grades.
- Tocopherol concentrate up to 35%
- Phytosterol 95%+, stigmasterol
- Gamma oryzanol from rice bran
- Unsap & squalene concentrates
Glycerine
Recovered, treated and refined to the grade the application demands.
- Crude glycerine
- Refined & distilled glycerine
- Sweet-water recovery
- 10 TPD in-house capacity
Bio-energy
Renewable fuel from residue-grade feedstocks, made to the national standard.
- Biodiesel B100, IS 15607:2022
- Winter-grade blends from residues
- Industrial boiler fuels
- 30 TPD in-house capacity
Five chapters from our own floor.
Before we design a client's plant, we run the same chemistry at commercial scale at Chikalthana MIDC. Scroll to walk through it.
We built our own works before anyone else's.
Every IDHMA route is proven here, on our own balance sheet, before it is offered to a client.
Vessels designed around the chemistry.
Reactors, columns and heat-exchanger networks are built to our own process designs, so one train can move from esters to fatty acids when margins shift.
Purity is decided by control.
In-house PLC and SCADA hold temperature, vacuum and residence time inside the window that separates commodity grades from nutraceutical ones.
The last one percent is where the value is.
Crystallisation, drying and our GC and UV laboratory take sterols and tocopherols to specification, lot by lot.
From our floor to yours.
Equipment leaves for client sites across India; product leaves our tank farm for industrial buyers. Same discipline, both ways.
Capacity you can contract.
Our Chikalthana works supplies industrial buyers on spot, term and offtake contracts, with certificates of analysis on every lot.
Biodiesel B100
FAME to IS 15607:2022. Cetane 71.9, ester content 96.9%, oxidation stability above 8 hours.
Fatty Acids
Distilled, 95%+ FFA. Fractional or molecular, cut and blended to customer specification.
Glycerine
Crude and refined grades for resin, polyol, personal-care and industrial buyers.
Verified by others, not just by us.
HPCL QC Lab
Biodiesel B100 passed every parameter of IS 15607:2022. Cetane 71.9, sulphur 1.7 mg/kg.
Eurofins
g/100 g total tocopherol in our concentrate, tested to ISO 9936.
9001:2015
Certified quality management across engineering and manufacturing.
In-house lab
Release testing and a certificate of analysis on every lot we ship.
Four ways to work with IDHMA.
Our clients are refiners, specialty chemical groups and industrial conglomerates. We shape each engagement around where the value sits on your balance sheet.
Technology & EPCC
Process design, engineering, fabrication, erection and commissioning of multi-product plants, delivered turnkey with operator training.
Value recovery
We audit your residue streams (DOD, acid oil, soapstock, pitch) and engineer the route that turns them into revenue lines.
Supply & offtake
Term supply of fatty acids, esters, glycerine, biodiesel and actives, or offtake of your residues into our works.
Joint development
Co-developed molecules, tolling and equity partnerships where our process know-how meets your market access.
Where the sector sets direction.
Our view on feedstocks, policy and plant economics, shared on national panels, at industry forums and on Oil Truth, our conversation series.
