1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
(I) INTRODUCTION
Shri Datta Sakhar Karkhana (SDSK) is a unit of Dalmia Bharat Sugar & Industries Ltd
(DBSIL). The company has an existing 60 KLPD Molasses Based Distillery, 7500 TCD
Sugar Mill and 30 MW Co-generation Power Plant at Village Asurle-Porle, Tehsil
Panhala, District Kolhapur, Maharashtra. Now, the company is proposing capacity
enhancement in Existing Molasses Based Distillery from 60 KLPD to 75 KLPD, Sugar
Mill from 7500 TCD to 9000 TCD & Co-Generation Power Plant from 30 MW to 32
MW within the existing plant premises by modernization & efficiency improvement.
In line with the ambitious programme of honourable prime minister like “MAKE IN
INDIA” and to become self-dependent on fuel within the country, The Company has
planned for capacity expansion in distillery from 60 to 75 KLPD and Sugar Unit from
7500 to 9000 TCD by modernization & efficiency improvement. There is no proposal
to increase in power generation capacity. However only incidental power generation
due to treatment of spent wash in incineration route as recommended by
honourable Ministry will result into power generation in the tune of 2 MW, therefore
this capacity needs to be captured while issuing amendment of EC.
No additional land is required for the proposed enhancement project, as the same
will be done within the existing plant premises.

proposes to make additional investment with state of art equipment. Fully aware of
the advantages of High Pressure co-generation systems and surplus power export
to grid and production of ethanol, SDSK proposes to modernize the sugar factory
with energy efficiency and by upgrading the capacity of turbo generators.
Installation of high pressure co-generation projects and distillery will bring
additional revenue to the factory by supplying green power to the grid. The factory
proposes to operate the cogeneration plant and distillery during Cane crushing
season and off season.
(ii) Brief description of nature of the project
Shri Datta Sakhar Karkhana (A unit of Dalmia Bharat Sugar & Industries Ltd.) is
proposing capacity enhancement of Molasses Based Distillery from 60 KLPD to 75
KLPD, Sugar Mill from 7500 TCD to 9000 TCD & Co-Generation Power Plant from 30
MW to 32 MW at Village Asurle-Porle, Tehsil Panhala, District Kolhapur, Maharashtra.
The distillery has put up the most modern technology for treatment of distillery
spent wash which ensures Zero discharge of distillery effluents. The distillery unit is
self-sufficient in terms of steam and power requirement. These steam and power is
generated in incineration boiler which in turn use spent wash as a fuel (hence, it is a
compliance of direction of honourable Ministry).
As per EIA Notification dated 14th September, 2006, as amended from time to time;
the project falls under Category “A”, Project or Activity - 5(g) & 5 (j) (Distillery &
Sugar Industry).
(iii) Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region
Sugar cane is one of the important cash crops of India. The industries based on
sugarcane and its allied by-products help farmers and provide employment to the
rural people. Bagasse, molasses and press mud are the waste by-products of sugar
industry. These products once thought to be waste are now being used as raw
material in the production of valuable products such as alcohol, bio-manure and
allied products.
Basis for Expansion in capacity of Sugar
The sugar is also food commodity required to be distributed to local marketing and
also has a potential to earn forging exchange by the export. The sugar mill is located
in the potential sugarcane belt of the state. Sugar recovery in the located area is

comparatively higher and there is further scope to increase the production of
sugarcane due to following reasons-
• Plenty of water availability due to nearby reservoirs.
• Soil & climatic condition are very conducive for cane cultivation
• Quality of sugar cane in the area is very good. High recovery expected from the
area.
• Yield of cane is very good
• The area is fully free from floods etc.
• The farmers are very keen to supply cane to mill due prompt payment by DBSIL.
• Presently the cane is being supplied to nearby sugar mills (and the existing plant)
• Plant has been suitably designed to reduce steam consumption and power
consumption and Bagasse shall be used for Co-generation of power.
Basis for expansion in capacity of Distillery
In line with the ambitious programme of honourable prime minister like “MAKE IN
INDIA” and to become self-dependence on fuel within the country. Hence Company
has planned for capacity expansion in distillery from 60 to 75 KLPD.
Alcohol is eco-friendly product which can be blended with petroleum and as a fuel in
automobiles. Hence, the distillery helps to reduce the dependency on petroleum and
has potential to save foreign exchange. Petroleum is a scarce, non-renewable and
non eco-friendly product. Alcohol being used in beverages is a potential source of
revenue to the government. The importance and utility of alcohol is well known as
an industrial raw material for manufacture of a variety of organic chemicals including
pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, potable alcohol etc. It is now being increasingly
appreciated all over the world. This is partly due to high costs of products produced
through petroleum route, consequent to the phenomenal increase in petroleum
price. Alcohol is also known as eco-friendly product as it is produced out of
renewable source.
Under the National Ethanol Programme, there is a mandate to blend 10 % ethanol, in
petrol in nine sugar producing states. This programme was started on 1st October
2003. This amounts to a demand of 360 million litres of ethanol per year. This
programme took the back seat in 2004 due to the draught like conditions and a bad

sugar cane crop. With good monsoons in 2004 and onwards, the country is set for a
reasonably good sugar cane crop in this season. In addition, the Government of
India has set a dead line for introduction of gasoline and diesel confirming to Euro-3
fuel standards in 11 cities of India. The Euro-3 standard specifies the presence of an
oxidant in the fuel, which minimizes the emissions due to the combustions of these
fuels. Ethanol being one of the most viable additives available, the oil companies has
to use ethanol for blending with petrol. The ethanol programme has already been
restarted. Government of India as all ready initiated to enhance blending of alcohol
with petrol up to 10% from November 2007. Once this programme is stabilized by
then the demand for ethanol would be more than double.
Following are the reasons for the capacity enhancement in distillery:
• Increase in ethanol yield from molasses from 24% to 26%
• Optimization of fermentation and distillation process.
• No additional fresh water is required for proposed increase in capacity
• No additional effluent generation
• Total concentrated spent wash generated is proposed to be consumed in
existing incinerator
(iv) Demand- Supply Gap
Based upon our recent study about cane availability in Kolhapur district which is
known to be highest cane producing district in Maharashtra state. Hence we will
safely increase the capacity from present level which will be beneficial to run own
distillery with in-house molasses production.
(v) Import vs. Indigenous Production
Indian market could not meet present alcohol demand. So they import alcohol 5-7%
of total demand. As far as ethanol production is concerned, Indian market play a
vital role at both domestic & international level. So they require producing more
alcohol to meet the demand.
(vi) Export Possibility
Export of ethanol & sugar is currently governed by Govt. policy.
(vii) Domestic Markets
Sales and Marketing division has always been a key focus area for our company.
Over the years we have reached a number of key customers through our initiatives.

Project Description
Sugar Manufacturing Process
Sugar cane is the raw material for manufacture of sugar. Juice is extracted from
sugar cane, which is then processed to recover sugar. Bagasse, which is the left out
fiber material after extraction of juice from sugar cane, is used as fuel in boiler to
produce steam. Steam is used for concentration of sugar juice, production of alcohol
and for generation of electric power. The flow diagram of sugar manufacturing
process is given in Figure below. Brief description of the process is given below.
1) Crushing of Sugarcane
Sugarcane is harvested and dressed in the fields and then supplied to factories
through Lorries, tractor trailers or bullock carts. Crushing takes place mainly in
two stages; first the preparation and then milling. Preparation is done in
leveller, cutter and fibrizer. The prepared cane is then crushed by passing

through 4 sets of mills. Hot water is added in the course of crushing as
imbibitions water for better extraction of juice from sugarcane. After crushing,
the bagasse is sent to boiler as fuel and juice is sent for purification and
recovery of sugar
2) Juice Clarification & Filtration
The weighed quantity of juice is primarily heated 70-730C in juice heaters and
then treated with lime solution. The juice is heated again to 100-1130C in
another set of juice heaters. The hot juice is sent to clarifier. Clarified juice is
decanted out and sent for evaporation in a set of multiple effect evaporator
bodies. The juice at 15% is concentrated in the evaporators in to syrup of 60%
concentration.
3) Crystallization
The syrup is sent to pan floor for further concentration in vacuum pans. The
syrup collected in supply tanks is taken to pans for boiling where the syrup
concentrates and attains super saturation stage. In such a condition sugar
grains are formed in the syrup. The syrup mass with sugar particles is called
massecuite. The massecuite is dropped in crystallizers and cooled to complete
the crystallization.
4) Centrifugation
Massecuite is taken into the high-speed centrifugal machine. Sugar crystals are
separated from mother Liquor and sent to driers. Non crystallable matter from
the syrup, called molasses, is drained out from the centrifuge. The molasses is
weighed and sent to storage tank.
5) Drying, Grading & Bagging
Sugar is dried in the vibrating hopper and graded by passing though standard
sieves. The graded sugar is bagged, weighted for 30 and 100 Kg net, stitched,
numbered and stacked in sugar godown.

FOR MOLASSES BASED OPERATION
i) Molasses Unloading and Storage
Molasses from tankers will be unloaded at unloading point and transfer in to molasses
storage tank.
ii) Hiferm-Nm Saccharification and Instantaneous Fermentation:
Yeast Activation:
Yeast seed material is prepared in water-cooled Yeast Activation Vessel by inoculating
sterilized mash with Active Dry Yeast. Optimum temperature is maintained by cooling
water. The contents of the Yeast Activation Vessel are then transferred to Fermenter.
Fermentation:
The Molasses from storage tank to be pumped to Dilutor installed in Fermentation
section and diluted with water. The diluted Molasses called Wort will be feed into Pre
Fermenter for activation of Yeast. The activated yeast from the Yeast activation vessel
transfer into pre fermenter.
Once the yeast activated in Pre fermenters it will be transfer in to fermenters and
diluted molasses to be add the process of fermentation is to convert the fermentable
substrate into alcohol. The pH of the wort is adjusted by the addition of acid. Yeast is
available in sufficient quantity to initiate fermentation rapidly and complete it within
the cycle time.
At the start of the cycle, the fermenter is charged with wort and contents of the Yeast
Activation Vessel. Significant heat release takes place during fermentation. This is
removed by passing cooling water through the Fermenter PHE’s to maintain an
optimum temperature. The recirculating pumps also serve to empty the fermenters
into Beer Well. After the fermenters are emptied, they are cleaned with water and
caustic solutions and sterilized for the next batch. The carbon dioxide evolved during
the process is vented to atmosphere (to be processed and stored for industrial use)
after recovery of alcohol in a scrubber.
iii) Ethanol Distillation:
Fermented wash from wash holding tank is pumped by wash feed pump to the top of
degassing column after preheating the same in beer heater and spent wash heat
exchanger. The vapours along with non-condensable gases from the top of degassing
column are rectified in Heads column, to expel the high volatiles, technically known as
heads. Bottom liquid from the degasser flows into analyzer column where alcohol is

stripped from the liquid. The liquid from bottom of analyzer column is completely
stripped of alcohol and is pumped out by thick slop discharge pump through heat
exchanger where it preheats the fermented wash before it enters degassing column.
The slop from the analyser column will be feed in to decanter. The dilute alcohol
vapours from near the top of analyzer column are condensed first in beer heater while
exchanging heat with wash feed and then in analyzer condenser. Degasser and
analyzer operate under vacuum. The condensate from is collected in Rectifier Feed
Tank. The vapours for stripping alcohol are generated from analyzer column bottom
liquid in the analyzer column re-boiler by using the rectified column top vapours, as
discussed subsequently.
Vapours from the top of heads column are condensed in heads column condenser and
then in head column vent condenser. Part of the condensate is returned to column as
reflux while a small portion is taken out as an impure spirit cut. Liquid from bottom of
is also taken into Rectified feed tank.
Dilute alcohol water mixture from rectifier feed tank are pumped by rectifier feed
pump through rectifier feed pre-heater in to rectifying column. Rectifier and its
associated equipment work under pressure so that these vapours can supply the
necessary heat for generating the vapours.
The condensate from is then pumped as Reflux to rectifying column. Rich alcohol
vapors at a concentration of 95.5% v/v from top of rectifying column are condensed
first in Analyzer and then in Reflux Vent Condenser. The liquid from are collected in
Rectifier Reflux Tank. Part of the liquid may be drawn off as impure spirit. The impure
spirit cut will be maintained as little as possible to maintain aldehyde levels to meet
the required limits in Absolute Alcohol.
Liquid from the reflux tank is pumped by Product Pump partly as product and partly as
reflux to the top of the Rectifying Column. The necessary rectifying vapours are
generated by boiling the bottom liquid in Rectifier Column Re-boiler using medium
pressure steam. Some side streams are drawn from rectifier column as light and heavy
fractions of higher alcohols called fusel oils and cooled in fusel oil coolers and are
mixed with water and allowed to separate out in fuel oil separator. All vents are
connected to Vent Gas Absorber where the vent gases are scrubbed with water to
recover entrained alcohol. The scrubber water is used for washing the fuel oils in fuel
oil separator to recover alcohol from the fuel oil fractions. The absorber vent is

connected to vacuum pump which is used to create vacuum in the analyzer and
degasser.
Absolute alcohol is manufactured by dehydration of Rectified Spirit. The process
adopted here is based on Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) system using Molecular
Sieves.
Rectified spirit, after preheating by waste hot streams, is vaporized and superheated
by using medium pressure steam at 6 Kg/cm2g pressure. Hot vapours at kg/cm² g
pressure and 130° C temperature pass through PSA column, where the water vapours
are retained while water free alcohol is released as vapours. The vapours are
condensed and collected as Absolute Alcohol. When the molecular sieve bed is
saturated with water the alcohol vapours are shifted to the other tower and the first
tower is taken for regeneration. Regeneration is done first by pressure releasing and
creating vacuum and then by elutriating with dehydrated alcohol vapours from the
tower in dehydration operation. The vapours are condensed and the vent vapours are
recovered through scrubber 2. Vacuum can be created. (Educator may also be
considered for this duty). Product is cooled and transferred to Absolute Alcohol
receiving tank and then on to storage tank.
iv) Alcohol Daily Receivers & Bulk Storage:
Alcohol is first taken to Daily receiver storage tanks, which is based on the State Excise
laws, storage for three days considering the weekly holidays of two days. Thereafter,
the alcohol is transferred to Bulk Storage Tanks after taking the daily receiver Dip. This
is transferred using flameproof pumps. Final dispatch of alcohol is metered and again
is carried out using special flameproof pumps. The Bulk Spirit Storage is proposed to
be set up for 30 days.
B) EFFLUENT HANDLING SECTION
i) Evaporation Section:
The spent wash coming from Distillation section will be fed in to first calendria of
the evaporator section. There will be five calendria will be installed as per design
to concentrate the dissolved solids .suggested treatment scheme is a four FF +
Finisher Evaporation Plant for spent wash Evaporation. The following points will

Co-Generation Plant
The company has an existing 23 + 3 MW Co-generation Power plant and proposed to
increase up to 30 MW total as per existing EC.
The existing two boilers having capacity of 200 TPH (120 TPH & 40 TPH and to be
enhanced 80TPH) are based on bagasse as a fuel + coal as supplementary fuel in Sugar
Unit and will be sufficient for proposed increase in capacity.
One incinerator boiler having capacity of 22 TPH is based on Conc. Spent wash &
Coal/Bagasse in Distillery Plant has already been installed as per recommendation by
Hon’ble ministry & is sufficient for proposed capacity enhancement of distillery.
Now Company will be generating 2 MW additional powers through waste recovery
incineration boiler (22 TPH) as an additional source of incidental power. This is the only
power generation capacity addition to be done under this proposal.
vi) Raw material required along with estimated quantity, likely source, marketing area
of final products, mode of transport of raw material and finished product.
(a) Raw Material Requirement

� Water is conserved at every stage of process. Large quantity of water is re-used &
recycled.
� In power generation Air Cooled Condensor is used in place of cooling towers.
� Uses of water in power plant is reduced drastically by installing Air Cooled Condenser
(Although with a higher capital expenditure) instead of water intensive cooling tower
operation hence reduction in demand of fresh water.
� Company has chosen state of art best available boiler configuration of high pressure
i.e. 125 Kg/Cm2. This resulted in reduction of water top up for the same amount of
energy generation as compared to low pressure boiler.
� Rainwater from rooftop is collected and stored in water tanks and reused.

Soil
The soils in the region are originated mainly from Deccan Trap. The soils in the
valleys are mixed in character, varying in colors from brownish to radish. The eastern
portion, due to its undulating nature, dipper soils are formed in the low lying parts
while ridges are covered by shallow soils.
Physio-graphically, Kolhapur district can be divided into three broad soil zones: (a)
the western part, with heavy rainfall (is mountainous and woody and is covered with
lateritic soils); (b) the fertile central part, with brownish well-drained soils of neutral
reaction; and (c) the dry eastern zone, with precarious rainfall and covered with
medium black soil of varying depth.
Lateritic soils (Tambad mati) occur mainly in the western hilly tracts of heavy rainfall,
on the hill tops and in the ridges which are not covered by forest, They are found in
the western parts of Karvir, Bhudhargad and Ajra and the whole of Shahuwadi,
Panhala, Radhanagari and Bavadatalukas. They are red to brownish-red in colour,
mostly eroded and shallow with good drainage. The soils are acidic with low
phosphoric contents and liming has been found to be beneficial. They are not
retentive of moisture and hill millets are predominantly taken from them. When
terraced, applications of nitrogen and phosphorus are found quite useful and in such
cases paddy crop can also be taken from the soil.
In the valleys, lateritic soils are mixed with trap soils. They vary in colour from brown
to black, are fairly deep retentive of moisture. Paddy is the main crop of this area
and in the rabi season vol is also grown wherever possible.
(vii) Climatic data from secondary sources
Kolhapur's climate is a blend of coastal and inland elements common to
Maharashtra. The temperature has a relatively narrow range between 10°C to 35°C.
Summer in Kolhapur is comparatively cooler, but much more humid, than
neighbouring inland cities. Maximum temperatures rarely exceed 38 °C and typically
range between 33°C and 35°C. Lows during this season are around 24°C to 26°C.
The city receives abundant rainfall from June to September due to its proximity to
the Western Ghats. The heavy rains often lead to severe flooding during these
months. 2005 and 2006 were years when floods occurred. Temperatures are low in
the rainy season and range between 19 °C and 30 °C.
Kolhapur experiences winter from November to February. Lows range from 9°C to

16°C while highs are in the range of 26°C to 32°C due to its high elevation and being
adjacent to the Western Ghats. Humidity is low in this season making the weather
much more pleasant.
(viii) Social Infrastructure available
Nearest habitation are at Asurle - Porle village. The nearest City is Kolhapur, which is
approx. 13 km distance from the plant site.
At Kolhapur City schools, Hospital, dispensaries, colleges, places of worship, Railway
station, Markets & other facility etc are available. Electrical power supply in most of
surrounding villages is available.
Mobile, Medical facilities are available in the nearby towns. Almost all the villages in
the buffer zone are electrified. L.T. power is being supplied for drawing water from
a large number of tube wells sunk around the important village of the buffer zone,
for irrigation purpose. Most of the tanks and ponds as well as the river water are
being utilized for irrigation.
