The promoters have diversified interests in liquor, edible oils, real estate etc. The promoters have the financial and managerial capability to set up and manage large industrial projects. Now, Company is proposing Project comprising of Grain Based Distillery, IMFL & Country Liquor Bottling, Brewery and Co-Generation Power Plant at Plot No. B- 2/6 & B 2/7, UPSIDC Industrial Area, Sandila Phase IV, Lucknow Hardoi Road, Tehsil Sandila, District Hardoi, Uttar Pradesh. It would be an eco-friendly project. We shall adopt zero discharge concepts. (ii) Brief description of nature of the project M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited is proposing to set up Extra Neutral Alcohol/ Rectified Spirit manufacturing facility with an installed capacity of 55 KLPD & 2.0 MW Co-generation Power Plant along with CO2 & Distillers Dried Grains & Solubles (DDGS) for Cattle/Poultry/Fish or Prawn feed as by-products. For the purpose of setting up the unit, the site is located at Plot No. B- 2/6 & B 2/7, UPSIDC Industrial Area, Sandila Phase IV, Lucknow Hardoi Road, Tehsil Sandila, District Hardoi, Uttar Pradesh. The company will manufacture ENA & RS through grain based process. The proposed site is chosen because of its proximity to the agriculture field surrounding the area & easy availability of food grains like Maize, Bajra, Sorghum & broken rice to the distillery for producing alcohol. (iii) Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region With hundreds of kind of alcoholic beverages being made and consumed in India, the industry can be categorised into four broad groups viz. Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL), Country Liquor (CL), illicit liquor & Beer. IMFL products contain about 42.85% of alcohol. The consumption of CL is slowly on the decreasing trend as some cheap IMFL is available. In spite of this, the CL industry is growing at around 8%. However, government is taking necessary steps to restrict the illicit liquor as it causes loss of revenue and spoils the health of the people, also bad quality may M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited 5

6 lead to death of consumer. The major consumption of alcohol as of now is for alcoholic beverages. Ethyl alcohol has the potential to become the fuel of the future relegating gasoline to a secondary place. The ethanol produced from the grains is superior in quality as compared with that from molasses. It is estimated that IMFL market will require around 3000 million litres in the year 2014 and expected to grow more than 50% in next 3 years. As Government declares 5% mandatory mixing of fuel ethanol in the gasoline thus there is great potential for new distillery establishment. (iv) Demand- Supply Gap Not required in this Project. This depends on excise Department. (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 to produce more alcohol to meet the demand. (vi) Export Possibility Export of Alcohol is currently governed by Govt. policy. (vii) Domestic / Export 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. We have a thrust on institutional Buyers which is a paradigm shift from the tradition of selling to wholesale market. (viii) Employment Generation (Direct and Indirect) due to the project For smooth functioning of the plant, the company needs a team of 60 persons. These persons are responsible towards their respective department such as Process Plant, Boiler Operating Plant and administrative block. Here is the detailed description of the manpower requirement of the company. M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited 6 Table 2 Manpower Requirement S. No. Units Requirement 1.

11 (iv) Details of alternative sites consideration and basis of selecting the proposed site, particularly the environmental considerations gone into should be highlighted. No alternative site has been taken into consideration as the proposed site has been acquired by the company keeping in mind following mentioned factors: Grant of state excise permissions (LOI) for setting up distillery in the district/state. Proposed project is located within UPSIDC Industrial Area. Raw material availability & markets for both products & by-products within the state. Nearness to SH - 25 (~0.5 Km in North direction) makes it easier to transport raw materials & final product to market. (v) Size or magnitude of operation The total proposed capacity of Grain Based Distillery is 55 KLPD & Co-generation Power Plant is 2.0 MW. The process includes basic raw material requirement, sizing of equipment, utilities & services, infrastructure facilities & sources of waste generation, their quantity, treatment & safe disposal of the waste. S. No. Units Capacity 1. Distillery (ENA/ RS) 55 KLPD 2. Co-Generation Power Plant 2.0 MW (vi) Project Description with Process Details Process Description of Grain Based Operation A) Grain Receipt and Storage: The process of the production of alcohol begins with the procurement of grain which is received at the factory in trucks and generally in bags. These are unloaded in the grain unloading section and the grain pre-cleaned through a system of bucket elevators and suitable equipment like destoners and others and transferred to the Grain Silos meant for the storage of Grain. Silos are generally made of GI Sheet having all internals to handle and keep the grain cool and maintain the right moisture content through blowers etc. B) Milling The grains after being cleaned of its impurities are then passed to the milling section. The cleaned grains are then milled using dry milling process through special hammer mills which grind the grain down to the size suitable for the process of conversion of starch to sugar and finally to alcohol. Grain after milling is passed through a mesh which grades the flour and passes on the M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited 11

12 larger grain and re-circulates the larger grain back to the milling section for grinding it to the requisite size. This section is equipped with all relevant dust collectors, back filters to contain the dust or any other foreign particle like stones, metals etc. The flour is then stored in a flour silo from where it is transferred to a slurry tank through another screw conveyer (Pre masher) for the slurry preparation. C) Slurry Preparation, Cooking & Liquefaction Section Grain flour and processed water are fed at controlled rate in slurry mixing cum liquefaction tank as per the requirement. The liquefying enzymes are also added in the slurry at this stage. This slurry is then cooked in the jet cooker. The slurry is continuously pumped to a steam jet cooker where high-pressure steam rapidly raises the slurry temperature. The mixture of slurry and steam is then passed through the retention vessel having sufficient capacity to provide the desired retention time at a given flow rate. The cooked mash is discharged to a flash tank. The cooking process, accomplished in the above manner, converts the slurry into a hydrated, sterilized suspension (as starch molecule is solubilised) and therefore susceptible to enzyme attack for liquefaction. The gelatinized mash from the flash tank is further liquefied in a liquefaction tank where liquefying enzyme is added. Then the liquefied mash is cooled in slurry cooler and transferred to Fermentation section. D) Saccharification & Fermentation Yeast Activation: Yeast seed material is prepared in Yeast Activation Vessel (Pre fermenter) by inoculating sterilized mash with yeast. Optimum temperature is maintained by circulating cooling water. The contents of the Yeast Activation Vessel are then transferred to Fermenter. Fermentation: The purpose of fermentation is to convert the fermentable substrate into alcohol. To prepare the mash for fermentation, it is diluted with water. Yeast is added in sufficient quantity to complete fermentation to produce alcohol. The fermentation process is engineered to operate in batch mode depending upon the quality of raw material. During Fermentation, sugars are broken down into alcohol and carbon-dioxide. Significant heat release takes place during fermentation. The fermenter temperature is maintained at around C by forced recirculation flow through plate heat exchangers. There is a provision for spent wash recycling to fermentation depending on solids concentration in fermented wash. M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited 12

13 At the start of the cycle, the fermenter is charged with mash and contents of the Yeast Activation Vessel (Pre Fermenter) once the yeast has got activated. Contrary to tradition today yeast is available readymade and one has to only activate the same and not develop it. Thus in normal course of today s fermentation we can do without yeast vessels and we can start the process at the pre-fermenter stage itself. Significant heat release take place during Fermentation, being an exothermic reaction. This is removed by passing the mash through heat exchangers to maintain an optimum temperature. The re-circulating pumps also serve to empty the Fermenters into Beer Well for Distillation of Alcohol. CO2 which is released during fermentation is passed to the CO2 recovery section after the recovery of alcohol from the scrubber. After emptying of Fermenter, it is cleaned with CIP using cleaning nozzles. After CIP, fermenter is ready for next batch to be filled for the next cycle. This whole process of fermentation from filling to emptying to cleaning and restart takes about 72 hours. E) Multi-Pressure Distillation:- Multi Pressure Distillation system has Seven Distillation columns operating at various pressure conditions. Heat energy from columns operating under high pressure is utilized for columns operating under low pressure to optimize the operation for energy consumption. Wash to ENA Mode:- 1. Analyser Column 2. Degasifying Column 3. Pre-Rectifier Column 4. Extractive Distillation Column 5. Rectifier cum Exhaust Column 6. Recovery Column 7. Simmering Column Pre-heated fermented wash will be fed to Degasifying column. Fermented wash is stripped off alcohol by ascending vapours in Analyser column. Rectifier vapours provide energy to Analyser column through a Thermo-siphoned-boiler. Vapours of Degasifying column are condensed and taken to Recovery Feed Tank. The condensed analyser Vapours are taken to Pre-Rectifier Feed Tank. Analyser Condensate is concentrated in Pre- M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited 13

14 Rectifier column, which operates under pressure. Condensing steam provides energy to pre-rectifier column through a vertical Thermo-siphoned-boiler. A Technical Alcohol cut of about 1-2% of total spirit is taken from the Pre-Rectifier column. Concentrated alcohol drawn from Pre-Rectifier column is fed to an Extractive distillation column for purification. Dilution water in the ratio of 1:9 is added in this column for concentrating higher alcohol at the top. Top of this column is condensed in its condensers and fed to recovery feed tank while bottoms are fed to Rectifier cum Exhaust Column for concentration. Rectifier Column operates under pressure and condensing steam provides energy to this column through a vertical Thermo-siphon re-boiler. Technical Alcohol cut is taken out from the top of this column while ENA draw is taken out from appropriate upper trays and fed to Simmering Column after cooling. Fusel Oil build up is avoided by taking fuse oil draws from appropriate trays. These fusel oils along with the condensate of Degasifying & Extractive Distillation columns are fed to recovery column for concentration. A technical alcohol cut is taken out from the top of this column. Simmering Column is operated under high reflux for better separation of methanol and diacetyls. Final ENA product draw is taken from the bottom of this column. Benefits of Multi-pressure Distillation:- Multi-pressure Distillation system has lower steam consumption as it is designed for maximum heat integration to conserve energy Energy efficient Multi-pressure Distillation system with a steam consumption of 3.2 kg/lit of Total Spirit (depending on mode of operation) Vacuum operation nearly eliminates scaling problem in Analyser column and ensures better separation of impurities, which results into better quality product. Well-engineered plants with high efficiency trays to ensure elaborate separation and removal of impurities ensuring superior quality of Neutral Alcohol. Proper care in design of calming zone on trays, large area of down-comers, gasliquid separators with tangential entry and vapour bottles ensures proper gasliquid disengagement and eliminates chances of liquid carryover. Analyzer column with Hyper-stat Rh-Grid trays ensure high turbulence on tray, this minimizes chances of scaling. Also, this special construction of trays and access to each tray helps in easier cleaning column internals. Condensers are designed with multiple passes to ensure high velocity and to M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited 14

15 minimize scaling inside tubes. Fusel oil decanters after Rectification column ensure proper separation of fusel oils. F) Decantation & Thin Slops Recycling:- Decantation section comprises of a Centrifuge Decanter for separation of suspended solids from Spent Wash coming out of Grain Distillation Plant. Wet cake has 28-32% w/w solids as removed from bottom of Decanter which can be sold directly in wet form as cattle feed (DWG). Thin slops coming out of Decanter are collected in a tank and partly recycled into the process & further for Evaporation for concentration up to 35% w/w (min) solids. The concentrated thin slops called as Syrup is mixed with Wet cake and sold in wet form as cattle feed (DWGS) or the entire mixture can be dried in a DDGS Dryer and then sold in dry form as Cattle feed (DDGS). G) Evaporation System- Integrated Evaporation Scheme:- The suggested treatment scheme is a TWO Effect (Integrated) plus TWO Finisher effect working on the principle of falling film Thin Slop Evaporation Plant. The following points will elucidate the basic working principle: a) Shell & Tube type Evaporators working on the principle of Falling film. b) Analyzer vapours is fed to the first effect evaporator shell side and steam is fed to shell side finisher at the given pressure and temperature as the heating medium. c) The Feed is at predetermined temperature is fed from the top of First effect evaporator, and then it is follow the following flow path. d) Vapours generated in 1st effect VLS (Vapour Liquid Separator) are used as heat source in the 2nd effect. e) The vapours from Stand alone falling film effect E-3 are also added to stand- alone effect- 4 Jacket to increase the steam economy. f) Vapours generated in stand-alone 4th effect VLS (vapour Liquid Separator) are added to integrate second effect. g) Vapours from 2nd Effect are condensed in Surface Condenser. A Shell & tube type Multi-pass Surface condenser is employed for condensing the shell side vapours. h) The product at the desired concentration 35% is obtained at the outlet of the Fifth effect. i) Each effect is provided with recirculation cum transfer pump. j) The condensate from surface condensers is collected in a common condensate M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited 15

16 pot. The condensate is transferred for further treatment/ drain by using centrifugal pump. k) The Pure steam condensate is collected in receiving vessels and can be pumped to desired battery limit. l) Highly efficient operating pumps have been provided for pumping the required fluid. m) The plant is having high level of automation to get consistent output at required concentration. n) The system operates under vacuum. Water- ring vacuum pumps are used to maintain a desired vacuum. o) Cooling water from cooling tower is used in the surface condensers for condensing the vapours. H) Dryer Section:- The wet grain received from the Decanter and the thick slops received from the Evaporator are mixed in a ribbon mixture to make DWGS which has about 70% moisture. This material can then be disposed of as cattle feed or sent to the DDGS Dryer for drying. The Dryer works on the principle of steam being used as a heating medium and passed through tubes and the DWGS mixture of Wet Grain from the Decanters and the syrup from the evaporator is fed to the Dryer. The DWGS at 70% moisture is dried to about 10% moisture to give DDGS which is sold as Cattle Feed. DDGS has a good market potential in India as well as abroad and is also a major source of revenue. I) Effluent Treatment:- The first step to achieving a zero discharge is through recycling of different streams and the following streams are recycled into the process to economize on the usage of fresh water as also achieve a zero discharge in the process:- a) Thin slops emerging from the decanters are recycled to the process in varying quantities depending on what the process can take from 10-25%. b) The balance thin slops are passed on to the evaporator and then to the Mixer for making of DWGS and then to the Dryer to make DDGS thereby making the entire effluent zero and getting a valuable by product cattle feed. c) Spent less which is the waste zero alcohol liquid coming from different distillation columns is also recycled to the process. d) Steam and process condensate is also reused with primary condensate going back M/s. Shri Gang Industries & Allied Products Limited 16

17 to the boiler and the process condensate being used as a makeup at different points including the Cooling Tower and so on. e) All washings etc. which cannot be reused are passed through a small treatment plant and the clear liquid obtained sent back to the process. f) The reject of the treatment plant is generally used for ash quenching or for gardening. g) We are thus able to achieve zero discharge which is the objective of this treatment process.
