“The company has signed agreement with Bateman Advanced Technologies Ltd, Israel, for procuring technology & licence, basic engineering, proprietary equipment and technical services for the establishment of 21,000 tonnes per annum (TPA) food grade phosphoric acid plant at Dahej,” said GACL in a press statement.
