Mission

Due to abundant availability of raw materials being used in the molassesbased distilleries there has been a huge demand for grain based extraneutral alcohol for the fast growing IMFL Industries and for blending inForeign Liquor outside India which has been a multifold surge in demand.Due to substantial deficiency in supply of grain based ENA and potentialityof the national & international market M/s. Superior Industries Limitedhave planned to proposed expansion of existing molasses based distilleryfrom 45 KLD to 74 KLD& Power Generation -5.0 MW. The proposed project of distilleryestablishment will play an important role in upliftment of the socioeconomic condition of the region particularly nearby villages.

Goal To complete the present project on time

2.0 THE ALCOHOL INDUSTRYEthyl Alcohol, Alcohol, Spirit, Denatured Spirit, there are myriad descriptions for this agriculture-based product. A globally traded commodity, Ethanol fires combustible engines in Brazil, slakes thethirst of many in Europe and finds its way in pharmaceutical and chemical industries, across theworld. Ethanol is made by two routes: either by synthetic one from petroleum substances or byfermentation from sugar-bearing or starchy substrates using yeast.

2.1 Market Potential:Uses of AlcoholAlcohol finds its use in diverse applications ranging from potable liquor to life- saving drugs to paints& perfumery to renewable source of energy.Industrial Alcohol / Solvents Ethyl Alcohol is an important feedstock for the manufacture of variouschemicals. These chemicals are primarily the basic carbon based products like Acetic Acid, Butanol,Butadine, Acetic Anhydride, PVC, etc. Ethylenes, Ethylene oxide are also produced from apetrochemical route; however this requires plants of huge scales and thus requires substantially highinvestments. The drug industry also uses alcohol as a raw material for production of Insulin,Antibiotics, tonics and several other essential bulk drugs & formulations.Grain based CO2 is food grade. Therefore in future there is a scope to put-up a food grade /beverages grade CO2 plant. It is also possible to go for liquor project (Country liquor or IMFL) infuture, which will further improve the economic viability of the project.

The following table shows the projected demand for Alcohol for production of chemical in India:

2.2 Alcohol-based industry2.2.1: OverviewThe alcohol-based chemical industry began in India in the early 1950s mainly with ethyl alcohol asfeedstock in the absence of sufficient petroleum feed stocks. Ethyl alcohol is produced frommolasses, which is a byproduct in sugar production. Molasses is a severe pollution hazard, whichresulted in the evolution of downstream alcohol-based chemical units. The alcohol-based chemicalindustry saw rapid growth as the products were not only import substitutes but also available ateconomical and competitive prices in the country.

2.2.2: Growth and present status of the industryThe size of the alcohol-based chemical industry is estimated to be in the region of Rs 50 bn. Throughlicensing and price controls on feedstock, Central and State governments encouraged the alcohol-based chemicals industry. In June 1993, the Union government decontrolled molasses/alcohol toencourage this industry. Presently, there are over 200 alcohol-based products manufactured inIndia, the single largest alcohol-based chemical being acetic acid. Acetic acid itself is the raw materialfor the manufacture of several other alcohol-chemicals like ethyl acetate (EA), butyl acetate (BA)acetic anhydride, etc. Ethyl alcohol is also used to produce acetaldehyde and ethylene.

2. Introduction of theproject Backgroundinformation

It is Green field project.Ethyl alcohol is agriculture based product which is recognized globallyby different name like Rectified Spirit, Denatured Spirit,Extra Neutral Alcohol, Absolute Alcohol etc. with multiple uses, likechemical industries, pharmaceutical Solvents, potable purposes andas other alternative source of energy world wise.

Alcohol can be produced either synthetically from petroleumsubstances or by fermentation from Sugar or starchy substrates usingyeast.

Industrial Use Of AlcoholImportant feed stock for manufacture of various Carbon Basedchemicals like Acetic Acid, Butanol, Butadine, PVC etc.Alcohol is also used in essential drugs and formulations.FUEL ETHANOL- Alcohol has a great future in the energy sector.August 13, 2002 was a historic day for the Indian Ethanol programmeas on this day the Government of India finally announced that fromJanuary 1, 2003 blending of 5% of Ethanol were be made mandatoryin Nine States and Four Union Territories of India i.e. 70% of Gasolineconsumed in India has to doped with 5% of Ethanol. To ensure that350 million Litres of Ethanol of right quality will have to be made

Contents Details

available in adequate quantities to various oil depot throughout theCountry.In future when India has to reduce the dependence on petroleum

imports due to very high world market prices the doping of gasolineby ethanol may go as high as 10% to 20%. In that case therequirement of ethanol will be still higher as shown below-The present supply and future projection in terms of ethanol use inIndia -

Ethanol Required perAnnum @ 5% blending

450 MillionLitres

Ethanol Required perAnnum @ 10% blending

900 MillionLitres

Average production ofAlcohol per Annum

1600 MillionLitres

The projection of fuel ethanol required with the @5% blending isabout 31% of total alcohol production in India. Considering thepossibility of blending of petrol @ 10% in near future the requirementwill increase substantially and therefore installation of more ethanolplants also becomes necessary in order to cope up with therequirement.Alcohol has a very important place in the country's economy. This avital raw material for a number of chemicals. It has been a source oflarger amount of revenue by way of excise duty levied by stategovernment on alcoholic liquors. It has potential as fuel in the form ofpower alcohol for blending of gasoline in ratio 20: 80.

i. Identification of projectand project proponent.In case of miningproject, a copy ofmining lease/letter ofintent should be given.

N/A

ii. Brief description ofnature of the project.

It is Green field project.

iii. Need for the projectand its importance tothe country and orregion.

Besides the technical and environmental benefits fuel ethanol offers,it makes tremendous economic sense in India as India's Import bill ofcrude petroleum is increasing every year.

The introduction of ethanol fuel will give big boost to Indian economyby following ways:

Agriculture will get boost because of additional production ofsugarcane.

Less dependence on imports and cheaper cost of productionof ethanol will bring down the prices of fuels.

Contents Details

Overall it is "Eco friendly Project".In view of the above positive results, it is recommended withoutany reservation that the establishment of this factory be granted.

iv. Demand-Supply Gap.

The total requirement of ENA / IMFL / Ethanol in India is 600 croresliters (25% ENA from grain & 75 % from molasses) and 350 CroreLiters for Ethanol as Fuel whereas, in India, total production of ENAfrom molasses and grain is 148 crores liters per annum. Next five yearprojected ENA from grain 40 % & from molasses 60 %. 275 CroreLiters of alcohol produced from molasses were used by oil companiesin the year of 2014-15. Projection for the year 2015-16 is 50.50 croresliters by the oil companies. Post 2017 India will require 6.30 billionliters of alcohol mainly from molasses for the use in petrol by the oilcompanies. Therefore, the huge demand of ENA made out of grainwill arise.

Process Condensate Polishing/Stripping Plant of 800m3/day

The objective of this Treatment System is to treat and generate reusable Process Condensate. TheProcess Condensate under consideration contains largely Dissolved Gases like Ammonia, H2S etc.and Biodegradable constituents of large Carbon Compounds and Inorganic compounds measured inthe form ofTDS (Total Dissolved Solids).

There are two possible reuse of this water that has been considered adopting minimum / optimumtreatment level i.e. Cooling Water Make up and Fermenter Dilution. In order to reuse the treatedprocess condensate removal of Gases, Reducing the BOD / COD (by removal of BiodegradableConstituents) and Removal of Inorganic Contents (Reduction of TDS) shall be required. Hence athree step treatment process was adopted and further mentioned unit operations were installed.

1. Stripping of Gases: For removal of entrapped gases such as Ammonia and H2S, speciallydesigned column is used with use of Air as medium for stripping of Gases. The degassedProcess condensate at the bottom of the Stripper Column is used as feed to the Ozonation Process.

2. Advanced Ozonation Process: The Biological Impurities are Large Carbon Compoundsand can be disintegrated by either a biological process with help of Bacterial Culture with orwithout Air or Strong Oxidation Process. The Biological Process are effective but requires a highretention time thus resulting in development of Large Civil Structures and their start up processtakes a long time and are sensitive with the fluctuations. To avoid these limitations, Oxidationprocess with help of a Very Strong Oxidizing Agent OZONE can be used. Ozone is anallotropic (unstable) formula of oxygen in which three atoms are combined to form a newmolecule. Due to its instability, at alkaline values of pH it quickly decomposes generating highlyreactive free radicals.The Process Condensate from the Striping Column Bottom is fed to an Ozonation Tank whereOzone Gas is injected into feed water stream and this is being recirculated for additionalcontact time. The overflow from this Ozonation Tank is fed to cooling/settling tank, wheresludge is settled down which generates during Ozonation along with addition of required Acid /Alkali being dosed in this tank to maintain the desired pHThe overflow of this settling tank is collected in a buffer tank which works as Filter Feed Tank.The clarified water is fed to Pressure Sand Filter Vessel containing layers of Multi GradeSand Filter Media. This PSF retains the suspended physical impurities. The Filtered Water isthen fed to Activated Carbon Filter Vessel which contains Granular Activated Carbon. Thiscarbon granule retains the very fine colloidal particles through process of Adsorption to removethe traces of colour and odour. At this stage the filtered water is almost free from the smell,colour Odour and biological impurities

3. Removal of Inorganic Impurities by Reverse Osmosis Membrane Technology:For the reduction of dissolved solids which are inorganic salts Calcium , Magnesium , Sodium ,Potassium etc with Chlorides , Sulphates and Phosphates etc which remains in the ionic formin the water needs separation by a semi permeable membrane which filters them at moleculeslevel.

The Filtered Water after Activated Carbon Filter is fed to the Membrane System with anintermediate booster pump producing a very high pressure required for the drive force ofFiltration. This results in approximately 70% Recovery of Feed Water in the Product andonly 30 % Water is being rejected which is further treated in the second stage RO to getmaximum recovery. Approximately 90% of the Dissolved Salts are being rejected. This ROProduct Water can be fed to Water Softener which works on the principal of Ion – Exchange.The remaining ions of Calcium and Magnesium can be exchanged with Sodium Ion toeliminate any possibility of scaling in the CoolingWater Circuit.

4. Usability of the treated Process Condensate: Considering the specifications &characteristics of the Process Condensate the elaborate treatment system shall allow the userto use the treated process condensate in the Cooling Tower as make up water and for thedilution purpose in the fermentation process. However based on experience it can be safelymentioned that approximately 60% can be used as Cooling Tower make up and the balance canbe used in the fermentation process for dilution purpose.
