2.2 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF NATURE OF THE PROJECT

EDL proposes to increase the production capacity of the plant from 60 to80 klpd. Enhancement of production will be achieved by optimising theexisting process leading to increase of alcohol concentration from 9.5 %v/v to 12.5 % v/v.

2.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRYAND OR REGION.

Ethyl Alcohol, Alcohol, Spirit, Denatured Spirit, there are myriaddescriptions for this agriculture-based product. A globally tradedcommodity, Ethanol fires combustible engines in Brazil, slakes the thirstof many in Europe and finds its way in pharmaceutical and chemicalindustries, across the world.

Ethanol is made by two routes: either by synthetic one from petroleumsubstances or by fermentation from sugar-bearing or starchy substratesusing yeast.

Alcohol finds its use in diverse applications ranging from potable liquorto life-saving drugs to paints & perfumery to renewable source of energy.

Ethyl Alcohol is an important feedstock for the manufacture of variouschemicals. These chemicals are primarily the basic carbon basedproducts like Acetic Acid, Butanol, Butadine, Acetic Anhydride, PVC, etc.

Ethylenes, Ethylene oxide are also produced from a petrochemical route,however this requires plants of huge scales and thus requiresubstantially high investments.

The drug industry also uses alcohol as a raw material for production ofInsulin, Antibiotics, tonics and several other essential bulk drugs &formulations.

2.4 DEMAND– SUPPLY GAP

The present supply and future projections in terms of fuel ethanol use inIndia:

Particulars QuantityEthanol required per Annum (considering 5%blend)

450 million Liters

Ethanol required per Annum (considering 10% blend)

900 million Liters

Average Production of Alcohol per Annum 1600 million liters

The above table provides the projection per annum of Fuel ethanolrequired which @ 5% blending in Petrol is about 31% of the total alcoholproduction.

Considering, the move of the Gov. to increase the blending to about 10%,the requirement will increase substantially and hence creation of newcapacities also becomes necessary in order to cater the requirement ofFuel Ethanol.

2.5 IMPORTS VS. INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION.

Of the world production of 35.6 billion liters, India is expected to havecontributed 1.69 billion liters or a mere 3.65% of the world production.Brazil produced about 14;0 billion liters i.e. about 42% of the worldproduction, mainly from sugarcane i.e. from molasses and cane-juice.The US produces about 5.5 billion liters a year, mostly from corn. About5% of the corn production in the US of America is used to make fuel-ethanol.

2.6 EXPORT POSSIBILITY.

Export possibility is there.

2.7 DOMESTIC / EXPORT MARKETS

Almost: 50% of the ethanol production in India is consumed by theindustrial sector for production of ethanol-based chemicals likeacetaldehyde, acetic acid, esters, butanol, glycol, pentaerythritol, vinylacetate etc. The remaining 40-50% is utilized by the potable sector.

There are about 303 distilleries in the country with a total installedcapacity of 3095 million litres per annum.

2.8 EMPLOYMENT GENERATION (DIRECT AND INDIRECT) DUE TO THEPROJECT.

Present employment in the project is 180 which will increase by anadditional 20.

CHAPTER – 3

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

3.1 TYPE OF PROJECT INCLUDING INTERLINKED ANDINTERDEPENDENT PROJECTS, IF ANY.

3.3 DETAILS OF ALTERNATE SITES CONSIDERED AND THE BASIS OFSELECTING THE PROPOSED SITE, PARTICULARLY THEENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS GONE INTO SHOULD BEHIGHLIGHTED.

The project is existing project and is in operation since 2013. The area of5 km radius around ethanol plant site is free from ecologically sensitiveareas. The Eco Sensitive zone of Manjira Sanctuary is at 4.5 km Thefollowing factors have been considered initially.

a. Availability of suitable and adequate facilities.b. Availability of water.c. Proximity to highway.d. Availability of raw material.e. Availability of man power.f. Suitability of land from geological and topographical aspects.g. Environmental aspects etc.

Based on the above guidelines the site in Choutkur Village, PulkalMandal , Medak District , Telangana State (Erstwhile state of AndhraPradesh) has been chosen for the plant.

3.4 SIZE OR MAGNITUDE OF OPERATION.

Present capacity of the grain based distillery plant is 60 klpd. Thecapacity after expansion will be 80 klpd.

The capacity enhancement will be achieved by optimising the existingprocess leading to increase of alcohol concentration from 9.5 % v/v to12.5 % v/v.

3.5 PROJECT DESCRIPTION WITH PROCESS DETAILS (A SCHEMATICDIAGRAM/ FLOW CHART SHOWING THE PROJECT LAYOUT,COMPONENTS OF THE PROJECT ETC. SHOULD BE GIVEN)

Process water is be added to Premasher to make slurry. The mixed slurryis be taken to the Initial liquefaction tank where additional quantity ofwater is added as per the requirement. Viscosity reduction enzyme andstabilizing chemicals and a portion of liquefying enzyme is also added atthis stage. This slurry will be “cooked” in the jet cooker. The slurry iscontinuously pumped to a steam jet cooker where high pressure steam at7 bar (g) / 170 deg. C rapidly raises the slurry temperature. The mixtureof slurry and steam is then passed through the retention loop for desiredretention time at a given flow rate. The cooked mash is discharged to aflash tank.

The cooking process, accomplished in the above manner, converts theslurry into a hydrated, sterilized suspension and is therefore susceptibleto enzyme attack for liquefaction.

The gelatinized mash from the flash tank is further liquefied in the finalliquefaction tank where liquefying enzyme (alfa – amylase) is added. Thenthe liquefied mash is cooled in Mash coolers and then transferred topartial pre-saccharification Tank where the saccharifying enzyme(glucosidase) is added. This process initiates the formation of sugar. Themash is then cooled in other mash coolers and transferred to fermentors.

Sachharification and instantaneous fermentation

Yeast Activation:

Yeast seed material is prepared in water – cooled Yeast activation vesselby inoculating sterilized mash with culture yeast. Optimum temperatureis maintained by cooling water. The contents of the Yeast activationvessel is transferred to fermentor

Fermentation

The purpose of Saccharification and fermentation is to convert starchinto sugar and then the fermentable substrate into alcohol. To preparethe mash for fermentation, it may have to be diluted with water. The pHof the mash is adjusted by the addition of acid. Yeast is added insufficient quantity to initiate fermentation rapidly and complete it within

the cycle time. At the start of the cycle, the fermentor will be chargedwith mash and contents of the yeast activation vessel. Significant heatrelease takes place during fermentation. This is removed by recirculatingthe mash through the plate heat exchangers (with the help of coolingwater on the other side) to maintain an optimum temperature. Therecirculating pumps also serve to empty the fermentors into the beerwell. After the fermentors are emptied, they are cleaned with water andcaustic solutions and sterilized before taking the next batch. The carbondioxide evolved during the process is vented to atmosphere.

Distillation plant

ECOFINE – MPR: WASH TO RS/ENA

Multi pressure distillation has seven distillation columns. These columnsoperate under different pressure conditions Energy from columnoperating under high pressure will be reutilized by column operatingunder low pressure. The seven columns namely Analyzer Column, Pre-Rectifier column, Stripper Column, Purifier Column, Rectifier cumexhaust Column, Heads Concentration Column and Simmering Column.The analyzer, pre-rectifier and stripper columns is operated undervacuum whereas simmering, rectifier cum exhaust column and purifiercolumns are operated under atmospheric condition. The stripper columnand heads concentration column will be operated under pressure(vacuum).

The energy requirement for Analyzer, Pre-Rectifier and Stripper Columnwill be met by rectifier column top vapours. The rectifier column topvapours are condensed in thermo-siphon re boilers.

The reboiler is connected to a flash tank and then flashed vapors areinjected into Analyzer Column. The concentrated vapors from theAnalyzer Column top will be sent to the Pre-Rectifier Column. The energyrequirements of the Heads Concentration Column are met by the topvapors of the Simmering Column.

Fermented wash is preheated in fermented wash preheater and fed to theAnalyzer Column. The Analyzer Column is operated under vacuum.

The vapors of the Analyzer are fed to the Pre-Rectification column, whichwill be operated under vacuum. An impure spirit cut are drawn from thisColumn. Bottom Liquid is sent to the Stripper column. The bottom of theStripper column is taken out as spent lees. The side draw from Pre-rectification column is fed to Purification column. The purificationcolumn is operated under Atmospheric Condition. The bottom is sent tothe Rectification cum Exhaust column. The top vapors containingimpurities are sent to the Heads Concentration column.

Rectification cum Exhaust Column are operated under pressure. Theproduct draw are sent to simmering column, while fusel oil draw are sentto Heads Concentration column. Spent lees from the bottom of thecolumn are taken out.

Heads Concentration (HCC) Column is operated under vacuum. Thecolumn concentrates the fusel oils. These are fed to the Fusel OilDecanter for separation. Soft water will be added to the decanter. Theseparated fusel oils will be sent to storage. The washings of the decanterare fed back to the Heads Concentration Column. An impure spirit cut istaken out from the top of the column. The bottom of the HCC Exhaustcolumn is taken out as spent lees. An RS draw from the FOC Columnwill be fed to the Purifier column.

The simmering column separates methanol from the alcohol and it isremoved in the form of an impure spirit cut from the top of the column.ENA is taken out from the bottom of the column. The process flowdiagrams is shown in Fig – 4
