ATTACHMENT
Manufacturing Process for Sugar
Matured, clean and fresh cut sugar cane from the field of cultivators is brought by bullock carts, trucks &tractor trolleys to sugar factory site. It is weighted on the electronic platform type weigh bridge. The carts, trucks &trolleys are unloaded into cane carrier by mechanical unloader. The cane is cut into small fine pieces by means of chopper, leveler, cutter & fibrizor called the cane preparatory devices. The prepared cane is then crushed by five or six mill tandem. The imbibitions hot water is added before last mill for better extraction of juice. The all juice extracted is screened through DSM or rotary screen, weighted by mass flow matter and sent to boiling house for further processing. The last mill bagasse, which is a byproduct, is used for co-gen boiler as a fuel. Saved bagasse shall also be used for co-generation in the off-season.
The weighed and mixed juice is heated upto 70°C to 75°C in juice heater and sent to reaction tank where same is treated with milk of lime and SO2 gas and the pH is kept as 7 to 7.1. This sulphured juice is again heated up to 100°C to 105°C in juice heater and sent to clarifier for sedimentation. Here, clear juice and precipitated non-sugars, organic & inorganic chemicals are separated which are called mud of the clarifier. The mud is filtered by means of vacuum filter unit where sugary filtrate and press cake (pressmud) are separated. The filtrate is reprocessed and pressmud, which is a by-product, is used as manure in the cane cultivators' field.
The clear juice from clarifier having 95°C temperature is heated to 112°C to 115°C in the juice heater and taken to evaporator set where 16° Brix juice is concentrated up to 60° Brix syrup. Thereafter, it is again treated with SO2 gas and finally sulphured syrup is sent to pan floor supply tanks. At pan section, 3 massecuite boiling system or 3.5 massecuite boiling is adopted accordingly to purities of basic products.
1. A Massecuite – Syrup + Melt + A light + Dry seed or B seed2. B Massecuite – A Heavy + B Grain3. C Massecuite – B Heavy + C Light + C Grain
Slurry is used for B & C grain preparation. After boiling massecuite in the vaccum pans, it is discharged in the crystallizers for maturation and cooling purpose. The cooled A, B, C massecuite are then taken for separation of sugar and mother liquor through continuous high speed and batch type automatic three speed machines. Thus, all mother liquors, B sugar and C sugar are taken form reprocess and the white sugar is taken from drying and cooling through hoppers and elevators to grader where 1.30, M30 & S30 sugar is separated. The dust is taken for reprocess. C mass mother liquor is called final molasses which is a byproduct that is sold for distilleries. It could be consumed in own distillery also for production of alcohol, ENA & ethanol. The above graded white sugar is taken to silo and then it is filled in bags after weighing (50 Kg net wt.) and same are sent to go downs for storage.
Manufacturing Process for Co-generation Plant
Cogeneration is broadly defined as the coincident generation of useful thermal energy and electrical power from the same input fuel. Thus, cogeneration can allow the energy consumers to lower their energy costs, through use of the energy normally wasted in conventional systems as losses. The useful thermal energy could be in the form of hot gases, hot liquids or steam; generally used for meeting the process and or heating requirements. When the thermal energy is required in the form of steam, industries employ steam boilers for raising the required steam at the required pressure and temperatures, suitable for the process.
Under proposed expansion project of sugar factory, 7500 TCD of cane crushing shall be done in 24 hours (i.e.) 312.50 TCH. The proposed co-gen plant is sized considering operation at 7500 TCD crushing capacity at present. The power distribution system has also been sized to meet with the power requirement at 7500 TCD crushing level. The steam and power requirement of the distillery will be supplied from the TG extractions of the new high pressure co-generation plant. Accordingly, the boiler capacity of the high pressure cogeneration plant is selected.
The proposed cogeneration power export scheme for the D.B.R.K. SSKL, Kolhapur plant, consist of a single boiler of 140 TPH capacity. The proposed system is capable of operating during the sugar off-season with bought out bagasse / biomass fuels/ cane trash etc. and the bagasse that is saved during the seasonal operation of the plant.

1.1 Need of the Project The Sugar industry in India is well maintained and growing at a steady pace, boasting of a consumer base of over billions of people. India is the second largest producer of sugar in the world. With more than 45 millions of sugarcane growers in the country, the bulk of rural population in India depends on this industry. One of the agro-based enterprises in India, sugar manufacturing is the second largest agricultural industry, after the textile sector. Sugar manufacturing in Maharashtra is one of the most notable sectors in the country. The pace of growth of this industry has been massive over the past few years. Most of the sugar units have by-product utilization plants, based on bagasse and molasses. Ethanol, power and paper projects have tremendous scope for development in India. Bagasse based power generation projects, installed in the premises of sugar factory, not only fulfill captive need of the industry but also make available surplus power which could be exported in the grid thereby providing value addition. 1.2 Employment Generation Potential The activities in proposed industry would improve the socio-economic status of people in the study area in terms of local labor employment and contract basis jobs. The proposed activity might provide employment opportunities to the local populace, especially in business and other services. Under proposed expansion no new workers will be appointed.

2.7 Process Details
Sugarcane, which is used as a raw material in sugar factory, is grown in the field and harvested according to the maturity survey and date of plantation after ensuring maximum sugar content in the cane. Harvesting may be done either manually or mechanically. Thereafter, the cane is transported to the factory. Sugarcane is unloaded mechanically on cane carrier and subjected to different units like crushing mills, raw juice extraction & its processing, weighment of the juice, juice heater, clarifier, evaporator, pan boiling, crystallizer and ultimately centrifuge to obtain final product. The bagasse produced from the sugar factory is utilized as a fuel in the boiler. In the boiler saturated steam is produced, this steam is used for moving the power turbines to generate power and generated power is given to the grid.
2.8 Resource Optimization/Recycling and Reuse All the manufacturing units in D.B.R.K. Panchganga S.S.K.L. have been designed in versatile fashion by adopting latest process techniques as well as with state-of-the art machinery. The effluent from existing as well as proposed activities is treated in ETP provided in the existing sugar factory unit. The entire treated effluent quantity is used for gardening in own industrial premises and the sludge is used as manure. This same method of disposal would be continued in the proposed sugar factory expansion project. 2.9 Input Requirements and Infrastructure Facilities including Power Sources Water
The total water requirement for existing and proposed expansion project would be 2280 CMD. The same would be cane condensate water. No any fresh water will be required for expansion of 10,000 TCD crushing. Initial fresh water requirement before the start of crushing season would be 22,400 CMD. The domestic water requirement is 50 CMD for industrial workers. The fresh water is taken from Panchganga river. Refer additional attachment for water budget of existing & expansion activities and water lifting permission letter.
