2.0 INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/ BACKGROUND INFORMATION

(i) Identification of Project and Project Proponent

M/s Express Digital Payment Services Private Limited (EDPSPL) is a company promoted by

Mrs. Anita Gupta and family. The promoters of EDPSPL have diversified interests in liquor,

edible oils, real estate, financial services etc. The promoters have the financial and

managerial capability to set up and manage large industrial projects.

Now, EDPSPL is proposing Project comprising of Grain Based Distillery, IMFL & Country

Liquor Bottling, Brewery and Co-Generation Power Plant at Village Ganora, Tehsil Ghatol,

District Banswara (Rajasthan). It would be an eco-friendly project. We shall adopt zero

discharge concepts.

(ii) Brief description of nature of the project

M/s Express Digital Payment Services Private Limited is proposing to set up Extra Neutral

Alcohol/ Rectified Sprites / Ethanol/Industrial Alcohol/Total Alcohol etc. manufacturing

facility with an installed capacity of 90 KLD & 3 MW Co-generation Power Palnt 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 Village Ganora,

Tehsil Ghatol, District Banswara (Rajasthan). The company will manufacture ENA 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

Page 10: PRE - FEASIBILITY REPORT Forenvironmentclearance.nic.in/writereaddata/Online/TOR/11...PRE - FEASIBILITY REPORT For Proposed 90 KLPD Grain Based Distillery along with 3.0 MW Co-Generation

At Village Ganora, Tehsil Ghatol, District Banswara (Rajasthan).

Pre - feasibility Report

M/s. Express Digital Payment Services Private Limited 6

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

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 produce the 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 100 persons. These

persons are responsible towards their respective department such as Process Plant, Boiler

Operating Plant and administrative block. Here is the detail description of the manpower

requirement of the company.

(vi) Project Description with Process Details

Process Description of Grain Based Operation

A) Grain Storage Silos, Cleaning, Handling and Milling Section:

Grain is received from various sources and is pre-cleaned off stones, husk, etc. and then

stored in specially designed storage silos. Grains are continuously lifted from the bottom

of the silos and screened followed by removal of stones in de-stoner and iron matters in

magnetic separators. Cleaned Grains are then milled using dry milling process in Hammer

Mills. The flour is fed through the bucket elevator and conveyed to the Batch Tipping

Machine through a Screw Conveyor.

B) Liquefaction Section

Grain flour mixed with recycle streams and water in Pre-masher and slurry has been fed to

Liquefaction tank. Required temperature has been maintained by applying steam through

steam sparger in liquefaction tank. The cooking process, accomplished in the above

manner, converts the slurry into a hydrated, sterilized suspension (as starch molecule is

solubilized) and is therefore susceptible to enzyme attack for liquefaction. The liquefied

mash is cooled in slurry cooler and transferred to Fermentation section.

C) Fermentation Section

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.

At the start of the cycle, the Fermenter is charged with mash and contents of the Yeast

Activation Vessel (Pre-fermenter). Significant heat release takes place during

fermentation. This is removed by passing the mash through heat exchangers to maintain

an optimum temperature. The recirculation pumps also serve to empty the Fermenters

into Beer Well. CO2 evolved during fermentation carries along with it some entrained

alcohol. This CO2 is taken to a CO2 scrubber where it is washed with water to remove the

entrained alcohol. The scrubbed CO2 can then be taken to CO2 plant or vented out. After

emptying of Fermenter, it is cleaned with CIP using cleaning nozzles. After CIP Fermenter

is ready for next batch to be filled.

D) MPR Distillation Wash to ENA:

Multi-Pressure Distillation system has eight 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. Following Columns will be under operation

� Analyser Column

� Degasifying Column

� Pre-Rectifier Column cum

� Exhaust Column

� Extractive Distillation Column

� Rectifier cum Exhaust Column

� Recovery Column

� Simmering Column

Pre-heated fermented wash is fed at the top of the Degasifying column. Analyser Column

is provided with Reboiler. Top vapors of Analyser column containing all the alcohol in the

wash are sent to Pre-Rectifier column. Rest of the fermented wash flows down the

Analyser column and is taken out as thick slops from Analyser column bottom. Low boiling

impurities are concentrated in the Pre-Rectifier column. A draw of impure alcohol is taken

out from the top of the Pre-Rectifier column. RS draw is taken from the top of Pre rectifier

column, which further is sent to Extractive Distillation column. Dilution water is fed to this

column. The Extractive Column operates on the principle of inversion of relative volatility.

Low boiling impurities are separated in the Extractive Distillation Column & bottom is sent

to Rectifier cum Exhaust column. The Rectifier/Exhaust column concentrates the alcohol

to 96% v/v. The spirit is drawn from the upper trays of the Rectification Column. Fusel oil

build up is avoided in the Rectifier cum exhaust column by withdrawing side streams

(fusel oils). ED condensates, fusel oil draw from R/E column are sent to Recovery column

where these fusel oils are concentrated and then sent to decanter where these streams

are diluted with water and fusel oil rich layer is separated. Washings are sent back to the

column to recover alcohol. The spirit Draw from the Rectifier column is sent to the

Simmering column where methanol is separated in the form of a cut from the top and

ENA is taken out from the bottom. ENA drawn from the Simmering Column is taken to the

receiver after cooling in ENA cooler.

E) Decantation Section Excluding Decanter Centrifuges

Decantation section comprises of a Centrifuge Decanters (Client scope) for separation of

suspended solids from Thick slop coming out of Grain Distillation Plant. Wet cake is

removed from bottom of Decanter. Thin slops coming out of Decanter are collected in a

tank and partly recycled into the process & Evaporation for further concentration. 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 DWGS Dryer and then sold in

dry form as Cattle feed (DDGS).

F) Integrated Evaporation

The suggested treatment scheme is a Multi Effect Evaporation Plant for Thin Slop

Evaporation. Shell & Tube type Evaporators with highly efficient liquid distributor working

on the principle of Falling Film and Forced circulation Evaporation has been used.

The product at the desired concentration of 40%w/w Total Solid is obtained at the outlet

of the final effect. Each effect is provided with recirculation cum transfer pumps. The

condensate from surface condensers is collected in a common condensate pot. The

condensate is transferred for further treatment / drain by using centrifugal pump. The

system operates under vacuum. Water-ring vacuum pumps are used to maintain a desired

vacuum. Cooling water from cooling tower is used in the surface condensers for

condensing the vapours.

G) DWGS Dryer Section

Wet distiller’s grains shall be fed into the dryer housing at controlled rate through a

suitable feeding system. The Rotary Bundle is enclosed in an insulated dryer housing and

on its outer flights are fixed. Dry, saturated steam is to be supplied to the bundle through

rotary joint at one end & the condensate is discharged through rotary joint mounted of

another end. During the course of rotation, these flights pick up the material and shower

them on to the tube bundles. The heat transfer is primarily by conduction. The water

vapors are exhausted through an Exhaust Blower & passed through a cyclone separator

for separating fines. Dry product partially recycled back to feed conditioner for feed

(x) Quantity of waste to be generated (liquid and solid) and scheme for their

management/disposal

� The proposed project is based on “ZERO EFFLUENT DISCHARGE”.

� Grain Slops (Spent Wash) will be taken through Centrifuge Decanters for separation

of Suspended Solids separated as Wet Cake.

� Thin Slops from the Decanter Centrifuge will be partly recycled back to process (30-

35%) and partly taken to Thins Slops Evaporation Plant for concentration of

remaining solids to form a Syrup. This Syrup is mixed with the Wet Cake coming out

of Decanter Centrifuge and forms part of Cattle Feed. (Also known as Distillers Wet

Grain Solubles - Collectively known as DWGS).

� DWGS is taken to a dryer operating on steam and is dried to make it DDGS – Distillers

Dried Grain Solubles.

� The process condensate is cooled and collected into a neutralization tank with

sufficient residence time. After Neutralization, this process condensate will be

recycled into process and is used for green belt development within the complex.

� Solid waste from the Grain based operations generally comprises of Fibres and

proteins in the form of DDGS, which will be ideally used as Cattle Feed.

� Ash from the Boiler will be sold to Brick manufacturers and Cement manufactures.

� Yeast sludge will be sent to the Sludge Drying Beds or may be added to the Wet

Cake.

� Used oil & grease generated from plant machinery / Gear boxes & D.G. Set will be

partly used in oiling & greasing as lubrication of external parts of machinery & partly

will be sold to the CPCB authorized recycler.
