As advised by CPCB, following parameters were studied and validated for our industry by VSI Pune. Assessment of manufacturing technology for spent wash generation and adequacy assessment of ZLD system comprising of Bio-methanation, RO,MEE, Composting / Incineration and steam availability etc. Water Audit and mass balance reports to establish spent wash generation rate. Action plans to achieve Zero Liquid Discharge. To restrict lined effluent storage capacity to 30 days. Assessment of availability of press mud, compost yard, composting process, compost quality and sale of compost.

In 2005 we installed our First RO Plant of 1000 m3 / day. In 2007 we installed another RO plant of 1250 M3 / day. Modified both the RO plants in 2013 to take load of higher TDS, After installation of MEE on distillation plants. In the year 2002, we started Bio-Composting and at present we have about 52 Acres of Biocomposting. At present we have 14 Acres of covered Bio- Composting for composting in rainy season.
Distillery have adopted the process of reduce and recycle process to manage effluent. Volume reduction is achieved through re-boilers, integrated multi-effect evaporators ( MEE) before Bio- Digesters. We have installed Sophisticated TSS removal system ( To bring down Digester outlet TSS 20,000 PPM to 2000 PPM at RO Inlet ) comprising of Lamella Clarifiers, Series of Clariflocculators, filter press. Clarifier and Dissolved air floatation for further volume reduction through R.O. plants
1) Reduced Effluent Generation through Multi Effect Evaporators and High Pressure RO Plants of 1000 m3 and 1250 m3/ day followed by permeate polishing unit. 2) Improved efficiency of RO Plant by increasing RO pressure from 60 Bar to 75 Bar and improved TSS reduction system through following additional equipments in 2015-16. Now added one more stage of 90 Bar to improve recovery. 3) Installed 2 nd stage RO as RO III plant for ultra filtration of First stage Permeate in order to recycle it in fermentation and cooling tower. 4) Degasser to de-gasify the effluent for better settling of suspended solids.
(4) Settlers (3 nos.) for better sludge separation. (5) Lamella Clarifier for better sludge separation. (6) Filter Press- for thickening of separated sludge. (7) Dissolved Air Floatation (DAF) Mechanism with the help of Special Polyelectrolyte for settling of fine sludge particles.
Lamella Degasser Filter Press
Radico is one of the Pioneer to accept and introduce the new Technologies. For the First Time in India we have installed the DAF System on Distillery Effluent. TSS Reduction thru DAF is from 3200 PPM to 2000 PPM i.e. about 38%.
Note : Till Now we have achieved 70% reduction in overall effluent volume and targeted to have 80% reduction after stabilization of currently installed systems.
In order to reduce effluent volume to less than1: 2 ratio, Radico has planned and ordered to M/s Excel Engineers and Consultants to install evaporator for it s effluent from RO reject. Radico is installing five falling film and 0ne force flow evaporator along with one stand by ( FF) for all the five evaporators. It will be having auto CIP / change over through DCS control system. Concentration of effluent shall be increased up to 28-30% from 19-20 % of RO reject.

RO-II
After volume reduction through MEE & R.O. remaining effluent is sent for Bio-Composting using sugar mill press mud and manufacturing highly valuable and micro-nutrient rich organic manure Bio-compost. The Bio-compost manufactured in the Distillery is being packed in sealed bags and no Bio- Compost sale is done through tractor trolleys now.
Installed Permeate polishing unit in RO plant for recycling of Permeate in Process. Recycling of lees, process condensate and Permeate in fermentation for Molasses dilution. Radico has been able to cut their fresh water consumption by about 60% through recycling of steam Condensate to Boilers, Using MEE condensate for dilution of Molasses and recycling R O. permeate to cooling towers and for gardening.

Radico has adopted very innovative and effective way of Bio-composting in Rainy season by covering Bio-composting yards. These poly sheds are very useful in the rainy season and protect the press mud from rain water in order to continue the process of Sp. Wash consumption in the press mud in the rainy season as well. By adopting covered Bio-composting, Radico is able to achieve ZSD in the rainy season and thereby facilitate operation of distillery throughout the year including rainy season.
Radico Khaitan Ltd has achieved remarkable landmarks in the field of effluent management, achieving Zero Spent Wash Discharge through various means and reduction in fresh water consumption per litre of alcohol production.
CSR INITIATIVES ON WATER RECHARGING Radico had made 80 Nos bore wells at Rampur Village s pond with an objective to Tap the Natural water resource available which ultimately raises the water level in Rampur District. Further 20 Nos recharging bore well installation is in pipeline in the ponds of nearby villages..
