1.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY AND ORREGION.

1.3.1 INDUSTRY OVERVIEWMolasses is one of byproducts of sugar industry which is used to produce rectified spirit/alcohol for makingliquor and fuel. Traditionally, molasses has been used in India to produce rectified spirit and alcohol of high-er than 95% purity for producing liquor for human consumption and for producing various chemicals. How-ever, with technological developments in the recent past, molasses has been effectively used to produce bio-ethanol for blending with petrol as a fuel.

1.3.2 GLOBAL SCENARIOBrazil is the second largest producer of ethanol globally after U. S. While U.S. produces ethanol from corn,Brazil manufactures ethanol from sugarcane. Brazil has mandatory blending ratio of ethanol in gasolineranging from 18% to 25%. The blend rate was as high as 25% before September 2011 and was reduced to20% due to drop in cane output hence affecting the ethanol production. Currently, flex-fuel cars, which canuse either ethanol or blended gasoline, in Brazil account for about 53% of the total car fleet and around 90%of the new vehicles’ sales. The proportion of the flex-fuel cars are expected to cross 80% by 2020. Current -ly, the Brazilian light vehicle fleet has been increasing by 6.7% y-o-y since 2003 with currently 90% of thenew vehicles being flex-fuel cars. Thus, there exists an increasing demand in Brazil for ethanol which is en -couraging for the sugarcane industry.

1.3.3 INDIAN SCENARIOIndia has 330 distilleries, which produce over 4 billion liters of rectified spirit (alcohol) a year. Of the totaldistilleries, about 120 distilleries have the capacity to distillate 1.8 billion liters (an additional annual ethanolproduction capacity of 365 million liters was built up in the last three years) of conventional ethanol per yearwhich is sufficient to meet requirement for 7-8% ethanol blending with petrol.

Total ethanol production increased from 1,435 million liters in 2009-10 to 1,934 million liters in 2010-11 on

1

account of higher sugarcane and sugar production and the estimated ethanol production in 2011-12 is peggedat 2,130 million liters. Ethanol consumption increased from 1,780 million liters in 2009-10 to 2,010 millionliters in 2010-11, owing to improved molasses supply and steady ethanol demand from competing indus-tries.

1.3.4 GOVERNMENT POLICYIn 2006, GOI mandated 5% ethanol blending with petrol (EBP) programme to directly benefit the sugarcanefarmers by assuring the sugar industry a stable and reasonable return for the molasses and then passing a sig-nificant part of the same to the farmers. But since then the programme has been struggling to take off despitethe fact that the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) in November 2009 directed that a finan -cial penalty be imposed on OMCs for their failure to reach targets.

In November 2012, the CCEA has made it mandatory for Oil marketing companies (OMCs) - Bharat Petro-leum, Hindustan Petroleum and Indian Oil Corporation - to blend 5% ethanol with petrol. This is likely toreduce the fuel import bill and lower India's dependence on fossil fuel as the ethanol prices are lower thanpetrol. OMCs have been blending ethanol with petrol for the past two years but the policy was partially im-plemented in absence of any clear directive. The Committee, headed by the Prime Minister, has also ap -proved market-based pricing of the biofuel, opening the market for ethanol producers - mostly sugar compa -nies. This shall result in an increased demand for ethanol by OMCs.

The national bio-fuel policy, approved by the Government of India, has plans for a 20% ethanol blendingprogramme by 2017 from the current mandated 5% blending & recently increased to 10%, to reduce India’sdependence on fossil fuel imports.

1.4 DEMANDS-SUPPLY GAPThe gap between the availability of alcohol and the requirement by the industry has been widening. The ex -isting requirement of alcohol by the industries is around 600 million liters annually. In 1992-93, alcohol con-sumed for industrial purpose was 450 million liters and utilization for potable purpose was 434 millionliters. The trend is expected to continue over last 9-10 years.

1.5 EMPLOYMENT GENERATIONFor the proposed project 50 personnel will be employed.

2.3 PROCESS DESCRIPTION

MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF DISTILLERY UNIT

The manufacturing process of rectified spirit/ anhydrous alcohol involves two major steps. Molasses is thebasic raw material. Generally sulphuric acid is not required, nutrients like yeast, anti-foam agent etc, will beused.

Following steps are required for the Ethanol Production.

1) Fermentation SectionMolasses handling: Molasses from the sugar factory will be utilized for the proposed production. Molassesis then after weighted, sent for storage or to the process diluter tank.

Yeast Propagation: Best strain of yeast is required for the production of alcohol, yeast is bought fromnearby vendor and is developed further in propagation section and maintain the viable cell population ofabout 300 million cells/ml by yeast recycling and continuous aeration of the fermenter.

Fermentation: When Yeast is added in container, yeast works on sugar present in molasses, break down thesugar into alcohol and carbon-dioxide, required temperature controlled to be 30-32°C (by circulating coolingwater). From Fermenter CO2 collected and directed to scrubber. Remaining content is “wash”.

2) Distillation SectionThe “wash” from the fermentation enters into distillation section. The hardware contains columns basicallyfor two functions, namely Stripping and Rectification. Thus, 1) Analyser column – Operated under vacuumand 2) Rectifier cum Exhaust Column – operated under pressure. (Additional columns only for refinement).

The “wash” from fermentation is first preheated in heater and fed to analyser column. Alcohol from thewash in form of vapour from the analyser column is fed to pre-rectifier column (under vaccum). The impurespirit drawn from the top of column were collected at bottom which is fed into the rectified cum exhaustcolumn (under pressure). Alcohol is enriched towards the top and drawn out as Rectified Spirit about 95%v/v concentrations. Fusel oil generated is drawn out to tank, washed with water, decanted, layers separatedand alcohol layer returned as recovery.

3) Molecular Sieve DehydrationMolecular sieve dehydration is to produce anhydrous alcohol from rectified spirit. Water molecules areadsorbed on the pore surface and the larger alcohol molecules are excluded and exit from the sieve unit. Theabsorption is a vapour phase process and hence, rectified spirit, vaporized and super heated in avaporizer/column is passed through sieve unit. Generally there are two sieve units. One is under adsorptionwhile the other is under regeneration. The cycle time for adsorption and regeneration varies from 5 to 10minutes. Thus forms Absolute Alcohol of desired 99.8% v/v purity. There is alternate Sieve Bed 2 ready fornext operation.

4) Multi-Effect EvaporationSpent wash from the process is fed into multi effect evaporator. Whole process is under vacuum and vaporgenerated are compressed and used as steam. Condensate water generated from evaporation will be recycledback into the process. While spent wash will be incinerated in the proposed spent wash fired boiler.

Stare cooling water circulation to S.S. reactor and bring the temperature of Ethanol between 30-350C.

Start addition of 215 kg KOH (purity of KOH is 855) slowly by maintain the temperature of Ethanol shouldnot be increased more than 35-400C.

Addition time of KOH will be 0.5 to 1.0 hrs.

After completing addition, maintain the temperature of ethanolic KOH solution at 350C for 3.0 hrs with con-stant stirring.

Check the moisture content. It should not be more than 9.0%.

After 3.0 hrs, transfer the ethanolic KOH in Drum/Storage tank with constant stirring. Solid un-dissolvedKOH should not be settled at bottom during the transfer of ethanolic KOH solution

4) POTASSIUM METHOXIDE SOLUTION (30% to 25%)

Potassium Hydroxide flex is charged in four times Methanol and heated to reflux to get Methoxide Caustic solutionwhich presence of one equivalent molecules of water.

This water is recovered with counter current dry methanol vapor in a bubble cap tray tower, the result in Potassiummethoxide solution is collected from the bottom of that column (25-30% W/W).

CHAPTER – 4PLANNING BRIEF

4.1 PLANNING CONCEPT

Molasses is the by-product in processing sugar cane for production of sugar. In general the molasses produc-tion is about 4.5% on cane crushed. The Carbohydrates in Molasses are already in the form of Sugars. Hencemolasses does not need any pretreatment for production of Alcohol. Repeated evaporation and Centrifuga-tion decreases the sugar content of molasses and increases the viscosity and concentration of salts and otherimpurities. The residual syrup thus becomes thick, viscous and brown in colour and is very heavy. The con -centration of molasses is normally measured in Brix.
