Home » Projects » Pt Soci Mas – Oleochemical Complex – 90073 – Medan – Indonesia

Detailed Engineering developed utilizing CADMATIC 3D modeling for Piping & Support Design and CAESAR II for Pipe Stress Analysis, integrated with interdisciplinary coordination.

A downstream industrial chemical plant that processes crude vegetable fats and oils (primarily palm oil and palm kernel oil) into pure chemical intermediates. The main process units within this complex include:

  • Fat Splitting (Hydrolysis) Plants: where triglycerides from vegetable oils are broken down under high pressure and temperature into crude fatty acids and glycerin;
  • Distillation and Fractionation Plants: thermal columns used to separate different fatty acid fractions based on carbon chain length (e.g., lauric acid, myristic acid, caprylic/capric acid, palmitic acid);
  • Hydrogenation plant: to saturate the double bonds in fatty acids or to produce fatty alcohols;
  • Glycerin Plant: purification and evaporation units for producing high-purity refined glycerin (pharmaceutical grade/USP);
  • Finishing and solidification plant: production lines for soap noodles (soap bases), soap flakes, soap bars, or packaging in drums/bulk;
