Boutique consulting with half a century of depth — process design, plant engineering, safety studies and techno-economic appraisals for India's chemical industries.
The Firm
Five decades of
process design innovation.
CCDC India was founded in 1990 as a specialist chemical and process engineering consultancy in Chennai. Over fourty years we have advised on projects spanning agrochemials, petrochemicals, fertilisers, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemicals across India and internationally.
Innovation is intrinsic to chemical engineering, but it only succeeds when it is married to first principles: a novel recovery scheme, a continuous process replacing a batch one, or a revamp that doubles capacity all rest on rigorous mass and energy balances, sound thermodynamics, and hard-won plant experience. That combination — invention disciplined by fundamentals — is what we bring to process design, safety and hazard studies, and techno-economic appraisal alike.
