5 Project No 1 LIME SLUDGE AND FLYASH MANAGEMENT (LSFM) SYSTEM WASTE TO WEALTH

6 Methodology Adopted Cement Lime sludge from 1 st Stage caustisizing Fly Ash Major Inorganic Solid waste

7 Expansion Capacity : 900 Tons/ day Lime sludge from SRP 200 T/day Fly Ash from boilers 100 T/day Capital Outlay Rs 166 Cr ( ) Initial Capacity : 600 Tons/ day Lime stone

8 Trigger major thrust/reason behind initiating the project Environmentally and Economically effective disposal & management of Solid Waste (Lime Sludge and Fly Ash) and conversion of waste to wealth

9 Uniqueness of the Project Conventional wood based mills follow single stage caustizising and entire lime sludge is reused. Agro based raw material contains relatively high silica content when compared to wood. Silica being one of the major non process element creates various problems, such as, high viscosity, corrosion, low energy generation, evaporator & boiler tube plugging and scaling in chemical recovery cycle. Hence, two stage caustizisingprocess is necessary to purge part of silica entering to chemical recovery cycle to avoid silica build-up in the system. Lime sludge purged from the first stage caustizisingis the one of the major inorganic solid waste and it is unique problem to agro based mills

10 Uniqueness of the Project H 2 O Green Liquor (Na 2 S + Na 2 CO 3 100% Ca(OH) 2 Caustizising(Na 2 S + Lime Kiln CaO+ CO 2 Ca CO 3 2NaOH + Ca CO 3 White Liquor (Na 2 S + 2NaOH) Reused in the digester Conventional wood based Process

11 Uniqueness of the Project Green Liquor (Na 2 S + Na 2 CO 3 30% Ca(OH) 2 1 st Stage Caustizising(Na 2 S + H 2 O 2NaOH + Na 2 CO 3 + Ca CO 3 70% Ca(OH) 2 Lime Kiln CaO+ CO 2 Ca CO 3 2 nd Stage Caustizising(Na 2 S + 2NaOH + Ca CO 3 White Liquor (Na 2 S + 2NaOH) Ca CO 3 With high silica solid waste Non-Conventional agro based Process

12 Technological Challenges 1. Raw Material blending: Density of Lime Sludge & Stone: Optimized by various combination of Sludge and Stone ratio as NO reference is available 2. High sodium content in the sludge Introduction of additional washer for sludge washing reduced sodium content in sludge 3. Drying the sludge to 1% moisture by drum washer and then by hot air Hot air generated from pre heater is used for drying 4. Variation of LOI in the fly ash due to variations in the pith use in Power. Mixed with Low LOI fly ash from other boilers where pith is not used

13 Maintenance Challenges 1. Frequent change of bag filter due to damage No previous experience in bag filter maintenance. Periodical inspection and proper maintenance eliminated the issue 2. Transportation of lime sludge for about 3 km through pipeline Jamming of pipe line reduced by reduced consistency and line flushing before and after pumping.

14 Administrative Challenges Mini Cement Mill: Experience personnel are not available for Production as well as Quality Control Personnel from Paper Mill is transfer to Cement Mill Marketing of Product : Initially it is sluggish as Cement is manufactured from Waste. Product Quality is ensured by Strict Quality Control department and Market is captured.

15 Replication potential of the project in Indian Industry All the agro based integrated pulp and paper industry will have similar issue of silica build-up in the chemical recovery cycle and generation of inorganic solid waste from the first stage To avoid silica built-up and solid waste issue and to utilize the fly ash they can adopt this innovative approach.

19 Project 2 REDUCE BLACK LIQUOR CONTENT IN HARDWOOD FINE REJECTS TO UTILIZE AS FUEL IN POWER BOILER.

20 Methodology Adopted Recover BL to recovery boiler Hardwood Digester Screen Rejects Stored in bagasse yard Screw Press To effluent Twin Roll Press Unbleached pulp for bleaching Recovered fines send to boiler(fuel) Before Project Knotters Knots Reused in the digester After Project

21 Trigger major thrust/reason behind initiating the project Reduction & effective management of disposal solid waste (Hard wood rejects) with black liquor content under the concept of waste to energy

22 Uniqueness of the Project Designed and implemented internally to reduce the pollution load to generate energy from waste & conserve the resources.

23 Technological & Maintenance Challenges Screw press was designed in-house and also there was no reference data available for this process, therefore initially many trials were conducted to optimize the inlet and outlet consistency of the sludge for trouble free operation

24 Replication Potential of the Project in Indian Industry Can be Replicated in all the wood based integrated pulp and Paper Industry

25 Spinoff Project Enquires are coming from kraftpaper mills to use this material as fibre source. If it is successful, it will give additional economic value than using it as fuel in the boiler.
