CCEA approves policy for conversion of existing urea units

New Delhi, Feb 11 (ANI): The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) today approved a policy to offer compensation to urea plants running on other fuels for conversion into gas-based units.

It has also approved restart of existing Naphtha based units which are under shutdown, on naphtha, provided they convert to gas before March 2010, as is necessary for other operational Naphtha based units. (ANI)
