PRE-FEASIBILITY REPORT 1.0 INTRODUCTION
Earlier, the assessment of the projects was done on Technical feasibility reports and Cost-
Benefit-Ratio which mainly considered financial & technical resources. But no consideration
was given to the environment protection in this evaluation and these flaws became apparent
with continuous deterioration of environment. Thus in order to have more realistic evaluation,
and keeping in view the deteriorating conditions, another dimension was added which is now
called as “Environmental Impact Assessment” (E.I.A.). This forms an integral part of the
project and is taken into account while appraising the project at different stages. Thus in the
new comprehensive approach all considerations like, Technical, Financial & Environmental are
given due weightage.
The Sugar project was set up initially with a capacity of 2500 TCD along with facilities for
generation of 5 MW of power at Village Buttar Sevian, Tehsil Baba Bakala, Distt. Amritsar,
Punjab. The project went into commercial production from December 1993.
The crushing capacity of the Company was enhanced to 5000 TCD and co-generation capacity
to 10 MW from November 1998. The company further set up additional facilities for generation
of 10.2 MW Bagasse based co-generation power project. The entire power generation of 10.2
MW is supplied to Punjab State Electricity Board (PSEB).
Looking at the good returns from the power segment, the company further enhanced its co
generation power capacity by 34 MW. The project went into power generation from September
2007. Out of 46 MW the company is exporting approx. 30 MW presently.
Now project now, proposes to addition of Ethanol Plant with installed capacity 60KLD in the
existing premises. Molasses will be used as Raw Material for proposed plant, which will be met
from our own adjoining Sugar Mills and local nearby markets.
As per EIA Notification dated 14th Sep, 2006 and amendment dated 1st December 2009, the
proposed project falls under Category “A”, Project or Activity 5(g). They have to submit Form-I
along with Pre-Feasibility Report and other relevant documents for getting Environmental
Clearance. This pre-feasibility report has, therefore, been prepared by the consultants to assess
the likely impact of the proposed on various factors which may be affected with the
implementation of the programme and to suggest remedial/precautionary measures, if any.
1.2 REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PROJECT
1. Name of the Industry M/s. Rana Sugar Limited (ETHANOL DIVISION)
2. Products to be manufactured Ethanol (60 KLD)
3. Main Raw Material Molasses
4. Total Plot Area 25 acres
2.0 PROFILE OF THE COMPANY & PROMOTORS. Rana Sugars Limited (RSL) is an integrated Sugar – Alcohol – Power manufacturing
company with a present capacity to crush more than 15000 tones of Sugarcane per day, and
with Co-generation facilities of 86 MW of power and existing Ethanol capacity of 60 KLPD in
Punjab state.
Sugar and Power Units – Uttar Pradesh
With over 15 years of experience in Sugar Industry with diversified operations, the promoters of
the Company decided to expand their operation geographically. The State of U.P. is the largest
cane grower state. Due to this the promoters set up two Sugar units at Moradabad and Rampur
Districts of U.P, with a capacity to crush 5000 tones of Cane per day in each unit and co-
generate 56 MW of power in both units.
The unit at Moradabad commenced its commercial production from May 2007 and unit at
Rampur commenced its commercial production from February 2008.
The Moradabad Unit is spread over 90 Acres of land and offers huge scope for expansion in to
completely integrated unit by setting up the Ethanol for manufacturing of RS / ENA and
Absolute Alcohol (AA) (Ethanol plant).
Distillery Division - Punjab To fully diversify its activities the company set up Ethanol unit with a capacity of 60KLPD
capacity at Village Loukha, Tehsil Patti; Distt Amritsar, Punjab. The project commenced the
commercial production from March 2006. The companies have another Distillery having
capacity 120KLD at Village Indri District Karnal Haryana. The company is utilizing molasses, a
byproduct of sugar and grain for the manufacture of Rectified Spirit, Ethanol and potable
alcohol. The company has further entered in to IMFL segment by bottling of brand name
“Original’s Choice” through a bottling tie up with John Distilleries Limited. Company produces
the Punjab Medium Liquor as per the Government Quota allotted and sells the same through
their Sales Depots situated in various parts of Punjab and Delhi. The Distillery unit also has
captive power plant of 1.60 MW to meet the power requirement of the unit.
Renewable Energy Certificates: Global Warming has raised serious concerns and elevated the need of using the non
conventional sources (Renewable Energy) for generating the power. However, Renewable
Energy (RE) sources are not evenly spread across different parts of the country. On the one
hand there are States (like Delhi) where the potential of RE sources is not that significant. This
inhibits SERCs in these States from specifying higher Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO).
On the other hand there are States (like Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu) where there is very high
potential of RE sources. In such States there are avenues for harnessing the RE potential beyond
the RPO level fixed by the SERCs. However, the high cost of generation from RE sources
discourages the local distribution licensees from purchasing RE generation beyond the RPO
level mandated by the State Commission. The Electricity Act, 2003, the policies framed under
the Act, as also the National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC) provide for a roadmap
for increasing the share of renewable in the total generation capacity in the country. It is in this
context that the concept of Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) assumes significance. This
concept seeks to address the mismatch between availability of RE sources and the requirement
of the obligated entities to meet their RPO. It is also expected to encourage the RE capacity
addition in the States where there is potential for RE generation as the REC framework seeks to
create a national level market for such generators to recover their cost. Central Electricity
Regulatory Commission (CERC) has notified Regulation on Renewable Energy Certificate
(REC) in fulfillment of its mandate to promote renewable sources of energy and development of
market in electricity.
The Company is eligible for REC trading and has registered all the three sugar units for REC
trading.

4.3 PROCESS DESCRIPTION:
ALCOHOL FROM MOLASSES: Molasses is the raw material for the manufacturing of
alcohol. There are different grade of molasses with respect to sugar present in the molasses.
Raw molasses from the storage tank is taken into the molasses weighting system. The weighted
molasses is diluted with raw water to get proper concentration of sugar. This solution if fed in to
yeast vessels. The diluted molasses in the yeast vessel is heated up with steam at 20 psi and
1200C temp for one hr. to kill entire unwanted microorganism present in the solution. After one
hr. the solution is cooled to 350C. Now this vessel is ready for further process. Yeast & all the
nutrients are added in the sterilized media & aerated for growth of the yeast. This process is
continued to increase the volume of the media.
This media is transferred to the main fermentor & the diluted molasses are also added in to the
ferment or. Fermentation is an exothermic process. The temperature of fermented media is
maintained by circulation through PHE continuously. Temp of the fermentor shall be
maintained at 350C.
The carbon dioxide and foam generated in the fermentor is scrubbed in the CO2 scrubber using
process water to recover the alcohol in the Co2. After complete fermentation a sample of
fermented wash is analyzed for alcohol content in the sample and Wash is taken into distillation
if alcohol content in wash is of acceptable level.
The fermented wash is preheated & fed to the top of the degasifying column cum Analyzer
column. Steam applied at the bottom of the Analyzer column to vaporize all the alcohol present
in the fermented wash. The degasifying liquid flows down to the analyzer, & the vapor for
degasifying column along with the analyzer top vapor are taken to the rectifier column. The
spent wash is drained from the bottom of the analyzer column. The vapor of the top of rectifier
column, which contains alcohol are condensed in the condenser & again feed on the top of
rectifier column to maintain the strength of the rectified spirit. Rectified spirit containing 95%
of alcohol is drawn from the top of the rectifier column. Some impure spirit is drawn as a bleed
for the rectifier reflux. Fuel oil is also drawn from different zones in the rectifiers column. From
the bottom of the rectifier column spent lees is drained.
The spent wash & spent lees both are free from alcohol & are the waste water of the Ethanol.
This waste water from the distillation house is fed to the evaporator. In the evaporator, the waste
water is heated with steam and the water present in the waste is separated. This water can be
used in the system. The concentrate from the evaporator will be used for composting.
The rectified spirit which is drawn from the top of the rectifier column is stored in storage
tanks. From the storage tanks the rectified spirit is either taken in to blending vats or goes for
distillation to ENA /ethanol plant. The spirit diluted with deminerlized water goes for blending
chemicals & caramel. The final blend is bottled as per market requirements. Flow chart of
manufacturing process is given in Fig.-4.1

5.2.1 METEOROLOGY:
METEOROLOGY:
Meteorology plays a vital role in affecting the dispersion of pollutants, once discharged into the
atmosphere. The principal variables include horizontal convective transport (average wind
speed and direction), vertical convective transport (atmospheric stability) and topography of the
area.
Meteorological characteristics of an area are very much important in assessing possible
environmental impacts and in preparing environmental management plan. The climate of the
district can be classified as tropical steppe, semi-arid and hot which is mainly characterized by
general dryness except for a short period during southwest monsoon season, intensely hot
summers and cold winters. There are four seasons in a year namely the cold season from
November to March, hot season from April to June, south west monsoon season from the last
week of June to the middle of September and the post monsoon season from September till the
beginning of November. During cold season, a series of western disturbances affect the climate
of the district. During the summer months i.e. from April to June, weather is very hot, dry and
uncomfortable. The weather becomes humid and cloudy during July to September due to
penetration of moist air of oceanic origin into the atmosphere.
The normal annual rainfall of the district is 600 mm, which is unevenly distributed over the area
in 30days. The south west monsoon which contributes 74%, sets in last week of June and
withdrawn in middle of September. July and August are the rainiest months. Rest 26% of annual
rainfall occurs in the non-monsoon months in the wake of western disturbances and thunder
storms. The micro-meteorology of the project site is given in table 3.2
