4. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

4.1 Process Description The proposed 100 KLPD plant is based on the DBT-ICT 2G Ethanol technology developed indigenously at the DBT-ICT Centre for Energy Biosciences (CEB), Mumbai. The CEB at the Institute of Chemical Technology (ICT), Mumbai is one of India’s leading multidisciplinary research facilities specializing in Bioenergy and Industrial Biotechnology. The project is designed to produce 100KL fuel grade ethanol per day, primarily from rice straw and will use approximately 400 tons of rice straw per day for the process. An additional 50 tons of straw per day will be used for supplementary fuel for steam generation. The process employed here uses rice straw as feed stock to convert into its cellulose, hemi cellulose and lignin fractions. The cellulose and hemi cellulose fractions are then converted into respective sugars through a process called saccharification.The sugars are then converted into dilute ethanol by fermentation using appropriate yeasts. The dilute impure ethanol stream is then purified and concentrated to fuel grade ethanol. The Figure 4.1 depicts the process outline. The rectangular blue blocks represent the main processing sections in the plant. Aside from these, there are ancillary sections like biomass size reduction, steam/steam /power/water supply systems, raw material and finished goods storage yards etc.

Figure 4.1: Process Flowchart

The plant has been designed as a zero-liquid discharge plant. The final products will be fuel grade ethanol, silica, mixed solid salts and liquid carbon dioxide.


4.2 Manufacturing Process

The Figure 4.2 schematically represents the basic process outline. Biomass (rice straw/cotton stalk/Napiergrass) obtained in the form of bales, is size reduced and then converted to sugars that are fermented to ethanol via two step alkali and acid treatment steps. The overall site consists of the following sections:

• Size reduction • Fractionation to cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin • Saccharification to C6 and C5 sugars • Fermentation to Ethanol • Distillation and Dehydration of ethanol • Purification, Compression and Bottling of CO2

• Utilities(power, steam, cooling water)
