1.3 Proposed Project Activity

Molasses and Press mud which are the major byproducts from sugar mill are presently being sold to nearby distilleries and to farmers. Hence the SSSSKL sugar mill management has decided to set up a 60 KLPD capacity on Molasses based Distillery cum Ethanol plant.

Total molasses quantity required for proposed distillery plant will be 185MT/day out of which 112MT/day will be from supplied from the own sugar mill and remaining 73MT/day will be procured from the nearby sugar mills. The distillery effluent (Spent wash) generated will be concentrated in biodigester, Multiple Effective evaporator and mixed with the press mud from the sugar mill and prepare a Biocompost which is a rich source of soil nutrients.

Hence thesugar mill byproduct shall be utilized as own resources in the form of feed for their distillery and shall earn extra profit due to value addition of these by-product in the form of Alcohol/Ethanol and Bio-compost. SSSSKL now intends to propose a molasses based distillery of 60KLPD in order to increase its productivity and profitability in addition to abating pollution.

1.17IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY AND REGION

India is predominately an agro based economy. Sugarcane plays a very vital role in the agro based economy by providing sugar, the main sweetner used in India. With the growing demand for sugar, the emphasis has been on increasing sugar production. India is the second largest producer of sugar over the globe. With more than 45 millions of sugar cane growers in the country, the bulk of the rural population in India depends on this industry. One of the major agro-based industries in India, sugar industry is the second largest agricultural industry followed after the textile industry. There are few major reasons for the installation of ethanol plant. Since the absolute alcohol demand on All India basis is going to increase in proportion to petrol consumption with 5% blend. The demand for absolute alcohol outstrips the supply quite considerably. This proposed Distillery plant will help to cope up some need of alochol (ethanol) for the above said purpose.

1.18 JUSTIFICATION OF THE PROJECT

M/s Saduguru Sri Sri Sakhar Karkhana Ltd is being managed in a very systematic and professional way. Hence, it has registered a consistent profit since the establishment. Looking in to the present demand of E.N.A. and for extending support to Government’s Fuel Ethanol Blending policy, the Management, have decided to diversify their activities by entering in the field of Distillery.

Further, during setting up of Sugar mill, The Management has purposefully acquired an extra Land for Expansion / Diversification in future. Accordingly, an adequate piece of Land is available in Sugar mill premises which can be used for setting up of the proposed 60 KLPD Distillery.

Molasses and Press Mud from Sugar mill are presently being sold to nearby Distilleries and to farmers respectively. However by setting up of the proposed Distillery, these Sugar mill By-products shall be utilized as own resources in the form of feed for their Distillery and shall earn extra profit due to value addition of these By-products in the form of Alcohol and Bio-compost.

The Sugar mill management has thus decided to put up a 60 KLPD Capacity, Molasses based Distillery cum Ethanol Plant. The Molasses requirement of the

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report

distillery could be met well by their own molasses and by the molasses produced in the nearby sugar mills.

The proposed distillery cum Ethanol Plant shall generate employment opportunities to the needy people in nearby areas. Thus, Management feel proud in obliging the sons of soil by providing the jobs to these people and fulfilling the social commitments by extending the welfare amenities to their family. After setting up of the Proposed Distillery, few ancillaries shall also come to support Distillery operations and this shall also lead to generate some employment and other business activities.

In short, by putting up the proposed Distillery cum Ethanol unit, there will be a further growth of Sugar mill area in terms of Employment, Business, Education, transportation, communication and of course Standard of living of families.

2.2. Manufacturing Process of the Proposed Distillery cum Ethanol plant (50KLPD capacity) Fig 6: Manufacturing Process of Distillery plant from Molasses

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report

Proposed Distillery shall be set-up based on latest Design, Engineering and Supply technology for Molasses handling, Fermentation, Distillation, Molecular Sieve Dehydration, Bio-Methanation, Evaporation & Bio-composting, Effluent Treatment in condensate polishing unit so as to have the Plant compliance to Zero Discharge. Latest Technology ensures incorporation of High efficiency Design, Higher fermentation efficiency and Effective heat integration in distillation and evaporation. The Process Technology adds value to overall plant engineering by incorporating global standards for Design, on safety norms and adherence to local design codes. The distillery process will be Continuous Fermentation.

Continuous Fermentation Series of fermenters of identical size capacity will be provided equipped with agitators for mixing of fermenter mass & facilitate release of CO2 produced. Molasses, diluted with water to the desired concentration is metered and fed continuously into Fermenter I. Additives like urea and de-foaming oil are also introduced in the Fermenter I. There is an automatic foam level sensing and dosing system for de-foaming oil, in both the Fermenters.

Fermentation

Every Kilogram of alcohol produced, generates about 290 Kcal of heat. This excess heat is removed by continuous circulation of the fermenting wash through an external plate heat exchanger called the Fermenter Cooler I. The Fermenter temperature is always maintained between 32 and 34°C, the range optimum for efficient fermentation. The conversion of 80% sugar approximately in to ethanol is completed in Fermenter I. The fermenters are provided with a provision for stillage recycle for maintaining high dissolved solids concentration in the Fermenters. The temperature in the Fermenters is maintained between 32 to 34°C for optimum fermentation. Conversion of sugar to ethanol is instantaneous, and the residual sugar concentration in Fermenters is maintained below 0.2 % w/w as glucose. This usually corresponds to a residual reducing substances concentration of 2.0 to 2.5% w/w in wash.

The yeast for the fermentation is initially (i.e. during start-up of the plant) developed in the Propagation Section. Once propagated, a viable cell population of about 300-500 million cells/ml is maintained by yeast recycling and continuous aeration of the fermenter. Fluctuations in the yeast count of ±20% have little effect on the overall fermenter productivity. Yeast cell vitality which is usually above 70 % may, in times of stress (such

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report as prolonged shut-downs) drop to 50% without affecting the fermentation. The aeration rate in both the Fermenters is adjusted for desired yeast cell vitality.

All the nutrient elements necessary for yeast growth exist in adequate quantities as impurities in molasses. Occasionally, Nitrogen may have to be supplemented. De-foaming oil (DFO), say Turkey Red Oil is added to the fermenter by an automated DFO dosing system, to control foaming. Usually no other additives are required.

Fermented wash from Fermenter II passes through a series of hydro-cyclones, which remove grit, iron filings and heavy particulate matter. The overflow from the first set of hydro-cyclone is taken to Yeast Separator, which clarifies the wash. The hydro-cyclones protect the separator from erosion damage by removing grit and hard particles. The reject from 1 st stage hydro-cyclone is fed to 2 nd stage hydro-cyclone for further separation. The reject from 2 nd stage hydro-cyclone containing sludge along with some wash, is fed to Decanter Centrifuge for separation of sludge which is sent to composting. The clear wash recovered from the Decanter Centrifuge is fed to wash column for alcohol recovery . The overflow from 2 nd stage is recycled back to Fermenter I.

Yeast recycling The yeast in the fermented wash is removed as 40% to 45 % v/v slurry, and is returned to the Fermenter I. This feature ensures a high yeast cell concentration is achieved and maintained in the fermenters. By re-circulating grown, active yeast, sugar that would have otherwise been consumed in yeast growth is made available for ethanol production, ensuring high process efficiency and extra alcohol yield. The clarified wash from separators is collected and sent to distillation section.

Propagation The propagation section is a feeder unit to the fermenters. Yeast is grown in 3 stages. The first two stages are designed for aseptic growth. Propagation vessel III develops the inoculums using pasteurized molasses solution as the medium. Propagation is carried out only to start up the process initially or after very long shutdowns during which the fermenter is emptied.

CO 2 Scrubbing and recovery The carbon-di-oxide produced during fermentation from Fermenter I is scrubbed with water in sieve tray scrubber to recover alcohol from vent gases. The vent gases from Fermenter II

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report mainly air and carbon dioxide are also scrubbed in sieve tray scrubber for alcohol recovery. The water from both the scrubber is returned to respective Fermenters. About 1% of the total alcohol production is saved by scrubbing the Fermenter off gases.

The CO 2 produced from fermenters after scrubbing will be bottled to avoid air pollution.

Molasses Handling and Distribution

Screened molasses transferred to molasses receiving tank and molasses is weighed. Weighed molasses is distributed to cell mass propagation, fermentation and yeast activation section. Yeast Propagation

Yeast is grown in laboratory during plant start up. Yeast propagation section comprises of molasses diluter and hygienically engineered yeast vessels equipped with heating, cooling and air sparging facility.

Dilute molasses media are prepared in yeast vessel by re-circulating media through molasses diluter. Laboratory propagated cell mass is scaled up in series of yeast vessels. Filtered air is sparged in pasteurized and cooled dilute molasses medium for optimum growth of yeast. Temperature is maintained at 30-32°C by recirculation cooling water through jacket of yeast vessels. Cell mass from Yeast vessel is transferred to yeast activation vessel to build up cell mass required for fermentation by cell mass transfer pump.

MULTI-PRESSURE DISTILLATION

Multi-Pressure distillation scheme has distillation columns operating under different pressures. Heat energy from columns operating under high pressure is recycled back to columns operating under low pressure to conserve energy. The plant can be operated under 2 different modes to produce RS or ENA as desired.

ENA PLANT DISTILLATION COLUMNS

OPERATIONAL MODE - 1: WASH TO ENA PLANT This scheme has total seven distillation columns. The columns in order of flow are: - 1. Analyzer Cum Degasifying Column – vacuum. 19

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report

2. Aldehyde Column – vacuum. 3. Pre-rectifier column – vacuum. 4. Pre-rectifier Stripper column – vacuum. 5. Purification Column – atmospheric pressure. 6. Rectification cum exhaust column – pressure 7. FOC (Recovery) Column – atmospheric pressure 8. Simmering Column – atmospheric pressure

Fermented wash is preheated in fermented wash pre –heater. The preheated wash is fed to analyzer column, to remove light impurities, dissolved gasses etc. Vapor from this column are passed to the bottom of the pre –rectifier and aldehyde Column. The Spent wash from the bottom of analyzer column is sent through a PHE to heat the incoming fermented wash and taken for further treatment or recycle to fermentation section.

In Pre-rectifier column the alcohol is concentrated and in the top tray and a small impure sprit cut is taken out. RS draw is taken from few trays below the top of Pre rectifier column, which is sent to purification column.

Purifier column operates on the principle of inversion of relative volatility. Low boiling impurities are separated in the purifier column & bottom is sent to rectifier cum exhaust column while the top vapor draw is fed directly to Fusel oil concentration column. The Rectifier/Exhaust column concentrates the ethanol to 96% v/v. The high-grade spirit is drawn from one of the upper trays of the rectification column and fed to the Simmering Column.

Simmering Column removes methanol, di-acetyls from the top and ENA draw is taken from the bottom. A small head cut is removed from the overhead stream to withdraw impurities. Fusel oil build up is avoided in the Rectifier cum exhaust column by withdrawing outside streams (fusel oils).

These are sent to the fusel oil concentration column where these fusel oils are concentrated and sent to decanter where these streams are diluted with water and fusel oil rich layer is separated. In this mode, rectifier column drives the analyzer and pre –rectifier column while purifier column partially meets the heat requirement of simmering column, thus achieving maximum heat integration and minimum steam consumption.

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report

OPERATIONAL MODE – 2: WASH TO RECTIFIED SPIRIT PLANT

In this mode , system will consists of three columns: 1. Analyzer Column 2. Pre –rectification Column 3. Pre –rectification Stripper Column 3. Rectification cum Exhaust Column 4. FOC (Recovery) Column

After preheating fermented wash in fermented wash pre-heater, the wash is fed at the top of the Analyzer column in which alcohol is stripped from the wash. Spent wash is removed from the bottom of the column. The vapors from uppermost tray Analyzer column are fed directly to the Pre –rectification column, A top cut is taken out from the Pre –rectification top to remove low boiling impurities.

The RS draw from Pre-Rectification is fed to the Rectification cum Exhaust Column. Rectification cum exhaust column concentrates the ethanol to 94.68 % v/v. The high-grade spirit is drawn from one of the upper trays of Rectification cum exhaust column.

A small heads cut is removed from the overhead stream to withdraw impurities. The lees from the column are drained out. Lower side draw streams are taken from Rectification cum Exhaust column to avoid fusel oil build up. The fusel oils are fed to the fusel oil concentration column. In this mode rectifier column drives the analyzer and pre –rectifier column. fusel oil concentration columns are operating stand-alone.

De-Hydration Technology for Fuel Ethanol

Molecular sieve technology works on the principle of pressure swing adsorption. Here water is removed by adsorbing on surface of `Molecular Sieves’ and then cyclically removing it under different conditions (steaming).

Molecular sieves are synthetic Zeolite typically 3A Zeolite. Zeolites are synthetic crystalline Alumino silicates. This material has strong affinity for water. They adsorb the water when heated (and pressurized) and desorbs the water under vacuum. This principle is used to dehydrate ethanol. The crystalline structure of Zeolite is complex and gives this material

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report

the ability to adsorb or reject material based on molecular sizes. Water molecule can enter the sieve and be adsorbed, but larger alcohol molecule will not be retained and will go through the bed. There can be two beds in parallel. Once a particular bed is saturated with water, the anhydrous alcohol is re-circulated to remove water from the bed under vacuum. The operation is called regeneration of bed; so that adsorbed water is desorbed from the bed. Till that time, other bed is used for dehydration. 3.0 Utilities 3.1 Raw material requirement Table 6: Raw material Requirement for Proposed 60KLPD Distillery

Initially to start the operation, the process requires 987KLD of water input out of which 500KLD will be recycled and reused. The effluent generated will be 617KLPD. This will be treated by using Condensate Polishing system.

3.3 Process for power generation:

Electricity in all power stations originates in the spinning of electrical generators with the help of turbines. The heat necessary for the production of steam, which drives the turbine, is obtained by burning of bagasse. SSSSKL has a 30MW Co-generation plant. The existing sugar mill 5000TCD will require approximately 8MW power for its operation. The proposed Distillery 60KLD capacity will require around 1.5MW power which will be supplied from existing cogeneration plant.

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report

Sugar Mill is having 70 TPH boiler. It will be will be used for distillery upto commissioning/trail period and then a dedicated new boiler & turbine of 50TPH capacity will be proposed for distillery and sugar mill expansion activity. Fuel for this distillery plant will be Bagasse at a rate of 5MT/hr or 120MT/day. The schematic representation of the Co-gen plant is depicted above.

4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AND POLLUTION CONTROL

4.1 Air Pollution Control : Sources of Air pollution are: Boiler, Stack emissions, DG set emissions, vehicular movement. During Trail season of Distillery plant, SSSSKL will use existing 70TPH boiler for steam generation. Later a dedicated boiler of 50TPH will be used for Distillery plant and expansion of sugar mill activities. Table 12: Particulate emissions from Existing 70TPH Boiler S.No Particular Quantity 1.

plant Ash Emissions 9 Total Ash emissions 6TPD 10 Fly ash Emissions 4.8TPD 11 Bottom ash Emissions 1.2TPD

Treatment Technology of Particulate emissions The critical SPM concentration in the flue gas will be less than 150.0 mg/Nm3. Majority of the particulates (about 60-70%) will have sizes in the range of 2-10 µm. The emissions are expected to have temperature in the range of 140-150°C. 1. SSSSKL has installed Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) of 98.5% efficiency for control of particulate emission for the existing sugar plant. 2. SSSSKL is proposing Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) of 98.5% efficiency for proposed 50KLPD molasses based distillery plant. Gaseous emissions in form of particulates and SOx and NOx are generated from boiler and diesel generator. As steam requirement for distillery unit will be met from boiler of co-gen plant in sugar mill there will not be any air discharges on this account due to operation of distillery.

CO 2 generated in fermentation process will be compressed liquefied and sold to consumers.

Diesel generators are used only during power failure to meet the supply of power to essential services. Hence emission due to running of D G set shall be insignificant

Mitigation Measures: • The main raw material and product shall be brought and dispatched by road and it will be ensured that the vehicle owners must have valid PUC Certificate. • It will be ensured that vehicles are not overloaded during transportation. • Dust suppression on internal roads will be done at regular intervals. • Boiler ash will be transferred in closed bulkers to the end users to avoid any spillage. • Better housekeeping by regular steaming of all fermentation equipment, Control of temperature during fermentation and Use of efficient bio-cides to control bacterial contamination will help to control odour ;

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report

• Air Treatment Technology using Electrostatic Precipitator will manage aerial emission prior to discharge to the atmosphere via a stack. The existing stack of sugar mill plant with 72m height is adequate for particulate dispersion during the trail period of proposed distillery plant. Later, a dedicated boiler of 50TPH will be used for distillery for which a stack of 60m height is proposed which is adequate to aid dispersion to the point where emissions will not impact on any receptors. • Adequate green belt will be developed over an extent of 33% of total plot area (i.e 20 Acres).

4.2 Effluent Treatment System for Distillery plant

• Initially to start the operation of distillery plant, it requires an amount of 987 KLD of freshwater. Out of which 500KLD will be recycled and reused in the process. • Daily net water requirement for proposed 60KLD distillery will be 487 KLD which is <10KL per KL of alcohol production as per the regulations of MoEF&CC. • Distillery effluent i.e Spent wash generated shall be 400 KLD which is 8KL/KL of alcohol production. • The spent wash generated will be treated by Bio digester as Primary Treatment followed by Multiple Effect Evaporation as secondary treatment. Concentrated spent wash will go to the Bio-composting which will be mixed with press mud that is available with the attached existing sugar mill.

4.2.1 Bio-methanation process

Biomethanation involves conversion of organic compounds present in the effluent, using a consortium of bacteria under anaerobic conditions. During their life cycle, the bacteria break down these organic compounds into methane and carbon dioxide.

The bacteria, being living organisms, require specific conditions to prosper. This is achieved by controlling the following parameters:

• Temperature

• Acidity

• Organic Loading

• Nutrient Balance

There are various Biomethanation systems available for treating various types of waste water, using different processes. The proposed Biomethanation system uses a specially designed Mixed Tank Reactor (MTR), called biodigester, to convert organic matter into useful energy in the form of biogas. The biological process of conversion takes place at

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report mesophilic temperature in a controlled atmosphere, ensuring maximum conversion efficiency and production of biogas.

Following are the salient features of the process:

Pre - Settling

Before entering the biodigester, the spent wash from the distillery unit is received into a spent wash pit to enable settling of suspended solids. The pre-settling system ensures consistent operation by reducing the solid build up in the biodigester. The settled solids are removed periodically from the pit for further disposal. pH control

Spent wash pH is adjusted to 6.5-7.0 by recycling part of the treated effluent.

Mixing in Biodigester

Mixing is done by recirculation of biomass, using a specially designed mixing system and is further enhanced by gas propagation. Efficient mixing helps micro organisms to reach fresh nutrients in a favourable living condition and convert organic matter into methane and carbon dioxide. Various sample points are provided in the bio-digester to measure the concentration of sludge. Drain points are provided to drain the sludge from the biodigester.

The sludge is settled in the parallel plate clarifier, which is recycled to increase solid retention time in the bio-digester. Supernatant liquid from the clarifier is sent for further treatment. Excess biomass and sludge is removed from the bottom of the biodigester regularly and sent to sludge drying beds for disposal.

Gas Collection & Handling

Biogas produced in the bio-digester is collected from the top of the digester and flows to the gas holder. The gas holder acts as an intermediate gas storage and pressure control device. Biogas is transferred to a biogas power plant to produce power. A flare unit is provided for excess gas burning.

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report

Safety Systems

For safe operation, flame arresters are provided on gas lines to protect the bio-digester from backfire & pressure relief valves are provided on bio-digester to protect from excess pressure or vacuum.

Control Systems

Controlling pH ensures the smooth and safe operation of the system. Temperature, volatile acidity and alkalinity are also controlled, using various control features provided.

Type of Bacteria

Anaerobic digestion of organic compounds is carried out, using different bacteria. Three main groups of bacteria are used:

1. Hydrolyzing bacteria ( Solubilising bacteria)

2. Acetogenic bacteria ( Acetate forming bacteria)

3. Methanogenic bacteria ( Methane forming bacteria)

4.2.2 Bio-Composting Plant The composting process consists of converting the spent wash into useful manure. This is done with the help of specialized microbial culture or using fresh compost as seed for the micro-organisms. The raw materials required for composting are spent wash, bacterial culture and a filler material. The most common filler material is press mud obtained from the sugar factory. Other filler materials are agricultural residues, such as bagasse, segregated municipal solid waste and ash.

Composting is a biological oxidation process for decomposing organic material by a mixed microbial population in a suitably warm and moist environment under aerobic conditions. The degradation converts the material to a stable organic fertilizer, which is also a soil improver.

The aerobic composting process involves arranging the press mud (filler material) in 300 to 400 m long windrows of triangular section of about 1.5 m height by 3.0 m. width on impervious ground usually with the help of front end loaders. The windrows are sprayed with a measured quantity of spent wash, in the ratio of 3:1 (spent wash to

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report press mud). The ratio will vary depending on the moisture content of the filler materials. The spraying of spent wash is done when the moisture content of the press mud drops to 50%. The moisture content is not allowed to exceed 65% as at that moisture anaerobic condition start prevailing which is detrimental to the composting process.

The windrows are inoculated with the seed material after the first spray. About 1 Kg. of bio culture is required per ton of press mud. From ambient temperature at start up the temperature rises to 65 Deg. C. by the second week and continues up to the 7th week. The total duration for completion of the reactions is about 8 weeks by which time the temperature returns to ambient. A further 2 weeks is allowed for curing. Carbon to nitrogen ratio is the deciding factor to determine the completion of the bio composting process. It should be 20 or below.

Specialized mixing machines called aero tillers, traveling along the length of the windrows are used to mix and aerate the decomposing mass, about once in three days. This results in increased spent wash absorption, oxygen supply for proper growth of micro-organisms and dissipation of heat, which is liberated due to metabolic activity of micro-organisms. The moisture content during composting is maintained at 50-60% by periodic spraying of the spent wash.

Adequate holding capacity (min. 30 days) is to be provided for the spent wash in lined lagoons to cater to any demand mismatch. The lagoons should be duly lined with 250 micron HDPE and pitched by stone/bricks with cement mortar to prevent leachate.

Composting is to be carried out on a raised impervious floor protected by bunds with provision for leachate collection and surface runoff and it’s pumping to the holding lagoon. Pipe network is laid for automatic spraying of spent wash.

Advantages of Bio Compost

The importance of recycling organic wastes is being increasingly recognized. Bio-earth compost provides early nitrogen, enhances nutrient availability, increases water retention, and provides colloidal nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, sulphur and micro-nutrients. It energizes the soil microorganisms and humus provides slow release of all the nutrients, which is essential for crops. It absorbs the nutrient

M/s Sadguru Sri SriSakharKarkhana Ltd Pre-feasibility Report elements from leaching and thus nutrients are utilized efficiently. It is non-pathogenic. High temperature decomposition process (60°C to 70°C) assures the elimination of disease causing organisms.

Compared to raw press mud, the bio earth compost application has following advantages:

• Very little quantity of bio earth compost is sufficient for crops and thus input and transport cost could be reduced. • Improved fertility value. • Provides early nitrogen. • Humus rich, very slow release of nutrients, which is essential for crop growth. • Immediate usage of compost for crops without allowing extended period of decomposition. • Increases water holding capacity of soil.

Improved yields of cane have been reported worldwide after using this bio compost.

The technology has many advantages. The resultant organic fertilizer is of high quality with rich nutrients and trace elements, ideal for keeping the soil healthy and for triggering the self -replenishment of the soil. The continuous use of raw organic wastes on land as followed presently, leaves toxins and is detrimental to the soil health in the long run. This is an internationally proven technology operating in India for more than Twelve years. Out of all the technologies so far proposed and followed, this is the only technology leading us towards minimum/zero pollution at economical cost.

Compost Quality Typical compost quality will conform to the following specifications: • Moisture content : < 35% • Organic carbon : 20-25% • Phosphorous : 1.5-2% • Nitrogen : 1.5-2% • Potassium : 2-3.5% • C : N ratio : < 17
