INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/ BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Identification of the project and Project Proponent The sugar mill (VSSSKL) is registered as a Co-Operative Society vide Registration No. SUR/MADH/PRG/(A), S90/1999 dated 21/05/1999. It is one of the progressive sugar mill in the Solapur district and has achieved excellent results since its establishment. The sugar mill is very progressive, achieved best technical performance and expanded its capacity in short time span under the able guidance of Founder Chairman Hon. Shri. Babanrao Vitthalrao Shinde (MLA). The initial installed crushing capacity of the sugar mill was 2500 TCD & the first crushing season was conducted in the year 2001-02. Based on increasing availability of sugarcane in area of operation, the sugar mill has expanded its crushing capacity from 2500 TCD to 3500 TCD in 2007-08, from 3500 TCD to 6000 TCD in 2011-12 and from 6000 TCD to 8500 TCD in 2014-15. VSSSKL has also installed a 38 MW co- generation plant. The last five years performance of sugar mill and future five years expected technical performance of the sugar mill is given in table. Last five years performance of sugar mill

Socio Economic Activities:

Apart from running the factory successfully and distributing the profit to member farmers, the management of VSSSKL is also involved in several Socio-Economic developmental activities for member farmers and workers. Some of the activities are briefly mentioned below, i) The sugar mill is giving medical aid to the employees and their dependents. ii) The sugar mill helps member farmers by supplying fertilizers, cane seeds and also arranges field demonstration & seminar to educate the farmers. iii) Sugar mill provides financial support to implement lift irrigation schemes and drip irrigation schemes in its area of operation. iv) Sugar mill provides the residential facility for the staff members. v) The labour welfare activities for workers are conducted at site. vi) Sugar mill has arranged mass marriage program every year at factory site. vii) The labour welfare activities for workers are conducted at site.

In short, the performance of existing 60 KLPD distillery plant of Vitthalrao Shinde Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana Ltd., is very impressive. To exploit more benefit from this industrial complex, the management of the sugar mill has decided to install 45 KLPD grain based distillery plant, boiler & TG set, stillage evaporation plant, dryer and Effluent treatment plant etc.

Justification for diversification to additional grain based distillery plant: Due to increasing demand for alcohol in the country in the last few years and also due to shortage of molasses, the prices of alcohol are increasing day by day. Potable grade Rectified spirit (produced from molasses) price went up to almost Rs. 35.0 to 36.0 per liter. In the last two-three years the availability of alcohol has become very difficult. The present basic price of molasses and extra neutral alcohol (produced from molasses) is Rs. 5,000 to 5,500/MT and Rs. 40.00 to 42.00 /liter respectively. These prices are expected to remain high in the coming years due to increasing demand for alcohol. It has become difficult for liquor manufacturing units to purchase good quality alcohol from the open market and run economically. Therefore, many potable alcohol and liquor- manufacturing units are looking for alternate raw materials. One of the well established routes to manufacture potable alcohol and liquors is to use grains as feedstock. Grain alcohol and liquors made from grain alcohol have special value and can fetch higher price in the market. Also it will be worthwhile to note that there are abnormal variations in the M/s vitthalrao shinde Sahakari Sakhar karkhana Ltd.Pimpalner ,Solapur (M.S.) 2018

price & availability of rectified spirit & molasses depending upon the availability of basic raw material, i.e. sugar cane. There is also no assurance of good return for molasses based rectified spirit. To fulfill this demand the management of has decided to establish a new distillery unit based on grains as the feedstock to produce superior quality of potable alcohol (Rectified spirit and Extra Neutral Alcohol).

Establishing proposed grain based distillery project will be benefit to the farming community and surrounding environment due to following aspects:

Maize /Rice crop is grown in normal soil. It grows in four months on rainwater

Corn & rice are the crops that can be grown by small & marginal farmers because it does not need the infrastructure as in case of sugarcane.

Corn /rice based distillery effluent can be treated more efficiently to produce DWGS or DDGS, which can be used as animal feed.

The corn/ rice -based distillery will be zero pollution distilleries.

Blackened or damaged rice can also be procured from market to produce alcohol.

It is expected that the farmers in the surrounding area will grow corn in addition to conventional crops and supply it to the Vitthalrao Shinde S.S.K. Ltd., Rice, maize and other grains are one of the main course cereal crops of India. India‟s market year 2015-16 rice ending stocks are estimated to be 18.50 million tonnes (16.2 million government rice and 2.3 million tonnes private) due to higher procurement and relatively weak off take, according to the FAS. Market year 2016-17 ending stocks M/s vitthalrao shinde Sahakari Sakhar karkhana Ltd.Pimpalner ,Solapur (M.S.) 2018

are also forecasted to be higher at 16.4 million tonnes on normal procurement and government off take. Maize is the third most important cereal crop in India after rice and wheat. It accounts for 9% of total food grain production in the country. Karnataka, Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh are the major maize producing states; together contribute 60% of area and 70% of maize production in India. In India in 2015- 16, maize occupied 86.27 lakh ha area and production was estimated 13 percent low to about 210.20 lakh tonnes (Third Advance Estimates dt. 9-5-2016) as against 92.71 lakh ha and 241.7 lakh tonnes in previous year, respectively. The production of major crops during 2015-16 in India is as follows: Food grains:- Rice – 103.61 million tonnes Wheat – 93.82 million tonnes Coarse Cereals – 38.40 million tonnes Maize – 21.00 million tonnes Pulses – 17.33 million tonnes Tur – 2.55 million tonnes Gram – 8.09 million tonnes India is second largest producer of corn/rice in the world. This crop is ideally suited for semi-arid agro climatic regions of the country and it gives reasonably good yield with minimal requirement of irrigation and fertilizers. Since corn/rice must be cultivated in semi-arid regions as fodder to feed the large cattle population of the country, industrial applications for this grain are being explored so that corn/rice cultivation becomes economically viable for small & marginal farmers. While the area under corn/rice cultivation in India is consistently declining, the yield is increasing year by year and thus the overall production of corn/rice is increasing. Corn/rice is grown in the Kharif (Rainy season) and Rabi (Post rainy season) but the share of Kharif is higher both in terms of area under cultivation & production. The Kharif corn/rice crop accounts for 55% of the total area under cultivation and 68% of the total production. Also the yield of Kharif season is much higher than Rabi. Produce of Kharif season gets damaged to the extent of 20% and fetches a low price of Rs. 2500- M/s vitthalrao shinde Sahakari Sakhar karkhana Ltd.Pimpalner ,Solapur (M.S.) 2018

4,500 /M.T. as compared to Rs. 4,000-6,000 /M.T. for Rabi crop. One of the reasons for low farm gate price for Kharif corn/rice is that there are several layers of traders between farmer and consumer whereas Rabi crop has good demand and does not go through so many layers of traders. Rabi crop is almost entirely used for human consumption whereas Kharif crop is not very popular for human consumption and is largely used for animal feed, starch and alcohol industry. The consumption pattern of rice grains indicates that the demand for rice as food would decrease, however the demand for Industrial use is set to increase due to availability of sound technical knowledge & encouragement by Government. The major industry sector consumers are Poultry sector (also replacing share of maize), Dairy sector, Alcohol sector & Starch sector. Amongst these sectors alcohol industry is having the largest share. The major application of maize is animal feed, production of starch/starch derivatives and ethanol production. Corn/rice grains fetches lower price when used for animal feed and the quantity used for starch industry is very small. Therefore, use of rice for production of Potable Alcohol would help the poor farmers because they will get a good price for their produce. Out of total stock 18.50 million MTs of corn/rice, about 2-3 million MT is wasted due to grain blackening following un-seasonal rains. This grain is not suitable for human or animal consumption. Hence, it is sold at a low price and thus gives lower returns to the farmers. Thousands of the marginal farmers will be benefited if such grains can be used for Potable alcohol production. Rice has higher starch contents when compared with maize. Rice is the best suited amongst all coarse grains for the production of alcohol because of higher yield as compared with the industry average. The process for alcohol production using Corn or rice is preferable as it is environment friendly compared to molasses. Use of Corn or rice for alcohol/ethanol production will use up to 10-15% of the mold damaged grain, which will help farmers to get a good price for their produce. The proposed project mainly consists of following major sections: 1. Grain processing section 2. Distillery unit M/s vitthalrao shinde Sahakari Sakhar karkhana Ltd.Pimpalner ,Solapur (M.S.) 2018

3. Decantation 4. Stillage evaporation plant 5. Dryer 6. Secondary effluent treatment plant 7. Boiler 8. TG set etc. While the current financial viability analysis is based upon selling the entire products in India, the export market potential is also tremendous. The promoters may consider entering export market at a later stage either on their own or with a suitable tie- up with international partner for marketing. Comparative advantages of grain-based distillery over molasses based distillery are given in the following table 2.2. Table 2.2: Comparison between Molasses and Grain based distilleries to produce alcohol Molasses based Grain based Distillery to produce alcohol Distillery to produce alcohol Pollution Molasses based distilleries are highly It is a “Green Field” project Aspect polluting and are categorized as “Red” in with zero discharge. our country.

Crop specific Sugarcane is long duration crop and Cereal grains are short limitations requires high level of irrigation. There duration crops with will be always limitations on how much substantially less irrigation sugarcane can be grown in our country water requirement. Many parts of the country can produce more cereal grains if there is a good demand for them. Seasonal nature Many molasses based distilleries are Grain based Distilleries, attached to Sugar mills and therefore, because of non-polluting these distilleries also run only during the nature, can run for 300 to sugarcane crushing season. 350 days in a year. However, some molasses based Low grade or damaged food distilleries now run for almost 270 days grains, which are available in a year. sometime at throwaway price, can also be used for grain alcohol production. Technological Molasses is very complex substrate. The Very promising new Developments quality of molasses is detoriating day by developments (such as raw day due to the tendency of sugar starch hydrolysis, new factories to extract maximum sugar. generation of efficient enzymes, dry degermination etc.) are taking place in dry milling grain alcohol production, which will bring down the cost of conversion substantially in future.

Future trends Due to increasing cost of petroleum Slowly, we are expecting a crude, parallel alcohol based route to switch-over in our country produce vital industrial chemicals is so that grain alcohol will be becoming more viable. Therefore, in mostly used for liquor future molasses alcohol will mostly go manufacturing. Some grain for industrial use.

Grains are stored in the silos from there it is conveyed through screw conveyor to bucket elevator. Bucket elevator lifts the grains to approximately 18m height and then passes the grains through vibrating screen, de-stoner and magnetic separator to remove dust and stones, the flow through this equipment are under gravity. The cleaned grains are then again conveyed by bucket elevator to an intermediate hopper, which are provided with rotary air lock system for controlled flow in hammer mill. In hammer mill the particle size is reduced (Size 400-700µ) as per required for the process. The size distribution test or "sieve analysis" of the flour is done regularly in order to ascertain the mill setting and particle size distribution. From hammer mill the flour is pneumatically conveyed to flour bin (Intermediate storage for flour). From flour bin the flour is carried to pre-masher for slurry preparation. In pre-masher, flour & required quantity of water are transferred by conveyer. Uniform grain slurry is made and transferred to another low shear tank (slurry tank) for proper mixing. In slurry tank required pH of 6.0-6.2 is maintained by using lime if required and temperature as 550C to 600C. An enzyme called α-amylase is added here in small (20- 25%) dose before the cooking process starts. Figure 4.3: Slurry preparation:

Cooking: The grain slurry is pumped from mixing tank (Slurry tank) to Jet Cooker (Hydro Heater) through open impeller centrifugal pump. In jet cooker steam is applied at 3.5 kg/cm2 pressure to cook the starch slurry to break down the chemical structure of starch in presence of enzymes. The temperature of grain slurry at outlet of jet cooker is

maintained between 115 to 1200C, after cooking the grain slurry is passed through the retention vessel to provide desired retention time at a given flow rate to convert starch into dextrin. In this step slurry pressure & viscosity reduces. The slurry which is hot is transferred into the flash tank to reduce the temperature of the slurry to 90- 950C before sending to final liquefaction tank. Flash tank is attached to flash condensers where vapours are condensed and condensate is sent to slurry tank. Figure 4.4: Cooking

Liquefaction: Grain slurry is transferred to final liquefaction tank from flash tank where remaining 75 to 80% of enzymes of α-amylase is added which convert starch to dextrin and 1-4 α-glycosidase linkages are hydrolyzed into amylose and amylo pectin. Enzymatic activities rapidly break-down the starch molecules to soluble dextrins and oligosaccharides. To have good conversion of starch to dextrin retention time should be about 1 hr. Saccharification: From the liquefaction chamber, the mash is pumped through a heat exchanger to be cooled for simultaneous saccharification. Simultaneous saccharification is the formation of fermentable glucose and the process is carried out in fermenters with fermentation process. The breakdown of dextrin‟s formed during liquefaction takes place with the help of a second enzyme, Amylo-glucosidase. The pH is required to be adjusted in the range of 4.0 to 5.0 and the optimum temperature for the Amylo-glucosidase enzyme is about 30-350C. The quantity of glucose produced is monitored by measuring the Dextrose Equivalent (DE) of the mash. Figure 4.5: Liquefaction and Saccharification:-

Alfa-amylase Liquefaction tank enzyme PHE

β-amylase or Simultaneous Amylo-glucosidase Saccharification and enzyme (AMG) Fermentation

Fermentation: Fermenters are cylindrical & vertical with conical top & flat sloping bottom. Fermenters are equipped with side entry agitators. Final liquefied slurry from final liquefaction tank is pumped into fermenter and is diluted to appropriate sugar concentration with process water. During fermentation process, saccharification progresses further and releases glucose required by yeast.

Fermentation is initiated by inoculating with required quantity of yeast. The assimilable nitrogen is added in the medium in the form of urea and di-ammonium phosphate. Temperature in the fermenter is maintained at 32 C with the help of external wide gap plate heat exchanger (PHE). The fermented mash is re-circulated continuously through the PHE. Recirculation also helps in proper mixing of fermented mash. The rate of fermentation reaction gradually increases and after about 55 to 65 hours fermentation completes. At the end of fermentation, the alcohol concentration in the mash is 10.0 to % (v/v). This section will have six fermenters of capacity given 70 hours retention time. After completion of fermentation the mash is transferred to mash holding tank.

The CO2 which is liberated during fermentation is scrubbed in water, in CO2 scrubber. This CO2 contains alcohol, which is recovered by collecting CO2 scrubber water into mash holding tank. If required, CO2 can be collected, washed, purified and compressed in cylinders to be sold in consumption for beverages production. However, in the present report this aspect is not considered.

Water & wastewater Details of ETP Scheme

TREATMENT APPROACH:- The mother liquor left behind after distilling-off alcohol is called as stillage. The stillage of distillery poses a very serious problem by way of threat to the environment. The VSSSKL management has decided to install new 45 KLPD grain based distillery plant to produce R.S. or ENA. Sugar mill management has also decided to install Decantation section, Multiple Effect Evaporation section, Mingler section to produce Distiller‟s Wet Grains with Solubles (DWGS), Steam Tube Dryer to produce Distiller‟s Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS) and standalone multiple effect spentwash evaporation plant as primary effluent treatment system followed by Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) digester for treatment of process condensates, CIP effluents, Boiler & Cooling tower blow downs, Fermenter washing water etc. In UASB digester COD & BOD % values are reduced and biogas produced, which is used as a fuel in boiler. The effluent coming out of the UASB digester is further treated in the polishing aerobic reactor to bring down the BOD as per the norms of pollution control authorities and then can be used for ferti-irrigation purpose.

Decantation section: The alcohol stripped whole stillage or spent mash or thick stillage coming out of distillation section is subjected to decantation by centrifugation to separate the suspended fibrous mass called wet cake and thin stillage. Wet cake has about 30 % w/w total solids as removed from the bottom of the decanter and can be directly loaded on the trolleys. Wet cake can be used directly in the formulation of animal feed. Otherwise, wet cake is taken to the mingler for further processing. Composition of Wet cake and thin slops are given in Table 7.1 and 2.2, respectively.

Technical specification for stillage evaporator

Evaporators are classified by the number of effects. In a single-effect evaporator, steam provides energy for vaporization and the vapor product is condensed and removed from the system. In a double-effect evaporator, the vapor product off the first effect is used to provide energy for a second vaporization unit. Triple- effect evaporator, the vapor product off the second effect is used to provide energy for a third vaporization unit. This cascading of effects can continue for many stages. For special applications, Multiple- effect evaporators consisting of even 12 effects have been designed. Multiple-effect evaporators can remove much larger amounts of solvent than is possible in a single effect. In a multiple effect arrangement, the latent heat of the vapor product off of an effect is used to heat the following effect. Effects are thus numbered beginning with the one heated by steam. It will have the highest pressure. Vapor from Effect I will be used to heat Effect II, which consequently will operate at lower pressure. This continues through

the train: pressure drops through the sequence so that the hot vapor will travel from one effect to the next. Normally, all effects in an evaporator will be physically the same in terms of size, construction, and heat transfer area. Unless thermal losses are significant, they will all have the same capacity as well. Evaporator train may receive their feed in several different ways. The feed order is not related to the numbering of effects. Effects are always numbered according to decreasing pressure (steam flow). Forward Feed arrangements follow the pattern I, II, III. These require a single feed pump (reduced fixed costs). They typically have reduced economy (higher operating costs) since the cold feed must be raised to the highest operating temperature. These also tend to have the most concentrated liquor, which tends to be the most viscous, in the lowest temperature effects, so there may be difficulties getting a good overall heat transfer coefficient. Backward feed arrangements go III, II, I. These need multiple pumps to work against the pressure drop of the system; however, since the feed is gradually heated they usually have better economies. This arrangement also reduces the viscosity differences through the system and so is better for viscous solutions.

Mingler/Mixer section: The concentrated syrup from the evaporation section at 28-30 % w/w total solids and wet cake coming from the decanter bottom at 30 –32 % w/w total solids is further mixed thoroughly in an agitated mingler to produce DWGS containing 30 % w/w total solids.

DRYER SECTION: DWGS is subjected to further drying in the dryer system to produce DDGS. This also requires additional steam. The steam tube dryer system operation consists of the following two stages. FEED CONDITIONING AND DRYING 1. Feed Conditioning:- The wet material is sticky in nature and will result in coating of tubes if fed as such. To temper this sticky character, the feed of wet DDGS is mixed with part of the dry product. The resultant mixture is not sticky and can be handled in tubular dryer. The wet material is dozed and mixed with part of the dry product in a suitable paddle mixer. The properly mixed feed is fed to dryer.

DRYING:- In the steam tube dryer, the wet feed is continuously agitated and heated by means of a rotating shell type tubular dryer with steam heated tubes. The material gets dried during its passage across the dryer. The dried material is continuously discharged via the

main rotary valve. Part of the dried material (quantity is controlled by the diverter rotary valve) is sent to the paddle mixer via back mixing conveyor. The moisture which is evaporated during the drying operation is exhausted via an ID fan. The hot air (which is generated in a finned tube heat exchanger, heated by steam) is used as a carrier gas for exhausting the vapours. The final moisture content of DDGS is about 8.0 to 9.0 %. The quantity of DDGS produced is around 250 to 260 kg per MT of corn or sorghum processed. We have considered production of DDGS of about 28 – 30 MT/day. DDGS specifications are given in the following table 7.5. Table : DDGS Specifications

Sr. Description Quantity/Percentage No. 1. DDGS final product 250-260 kg/MT of grains 2. Moisture 10 %, w/w 3. Dry matter solids 90 %, w/w 4. Proteins 36.38 % ,w/w 5. Fats & oils 6-8 %, w/w 6. Inorganic ash 3-5 %, w/w 7. Other organics 39-43 %, w/w

The advantage of DDGS manufacture in the grain based distillery is that there is no effluent (liquid or solid) produced in the plant. Thus, the integrated grain distillery with DDGS system becomes zero effluent discharge plant.

February is followed by the hot season which lasts up to the end of May. June to September is the south-west monsoon season. October and November constitute the post-monsoon or retreating monsoon season.

Rainfall:

Records of rainfall in the district are available for 9 stations for periods ranging from 55 to 84 years. The details of the rainfall at these stations and for the district as a whole are given in table Nos. 2 to 3. The average annual rainfall in the district is 584.3 mm. (23.00"). The rainfall in the district varies from 448.8 mm. (17.67") at Akluj near the western border to 689.2 mm. (27.14") at Akkalkot near the south-eastern border of the district. Some rainfall in the form of thunder-showers occurs during the months of April and May. The rainfall during the south-west monsoon in the months of June to September amounts to about 74 per cent of the annual rainfall. September is the rainiest month. About 17 per cent of the normal annual rainfall in the district is received in the post-monsoon months of October and November. The variation in the annual rainfall from year to year is large. In the fifty-year period from 1901- 1950, the highest annual rainfall amounting to 181 per cent of the normal occurred in 1916. The lowest annual rainfall which was only 51 per cent of the normal occurred in 1905. In the same period the annual rainfall in the district was less than 80 per cent of the normal in 10 years. Two and three consecutive years of such low rainfall occurred once each during this period. Considering the annual rainfall at the individual stations it is seen that two consecutive years of such low rainfall have occurred more than twice at most of the stations. In the period from 1911 to 1913 and in the case of two stations, 1914 also, the rainfall was less than 80 per cent practically throughout the district. It will be seen from table No. 2 that the annual rainfall in the district was between 500 and 800 mm. (19.69" and 31.50") in 31 years out of 50.

On an average there are 37 rainy days (i.e., days with rainfall of 2.5 mm. - 10 cents - or more) in a year in the district. This number increases from 30 at Akluj near the western border of the district to 45 at Akkalkot near the south-eastern border.

The heaviest rainfall in 24 hours recorded at any station in the district was 251.5 mm. (9.90") at Pandharpur on September 7, 1895.

Temperature:

There are two meteorological observatories in the district, one at Sholapur and the other at Jeur. The data of Sholapur are available for a longer period. The records of these two

The cold season starts by about the end of November when temperatures, especially night temperatures, begin to fall rapidly. December is the coldest month with the mean daily maximum at 29.39'C (84.70°F) and the mean daily minimum at 14.8°C (58.6°F). The minimum temperature may occasionally drop down to 4°C or 5°C (39.2°F or 41.0°F). The period from about the middle of February to the end of May is one of continuous increase of temperature. May is the hottest month with the mean daily maximum temperature at 39.9°C (103.8°F) and the mean daily minimum at 25.1 °C (77.2°F). The heat during the summer season is intense and the maximum temperature may sometimes go up to about 44°C or 45°C (111.2°F or 113.0°F). Afternoon thunder-showers bring welcome relief from the heat. The onset of the south-west monsoon by about the first week of June brings down the temperatures appreciably. After the withdrawal of the south-west monsoon early in October day temperatures increase slightly but the night temperatures steadily decrease. After mid- November both day and night temperatures begin to drop rapidly. Except during the south-west monsoon season the daily range of temperature is large and is of the order of 12°C to 16°Cat Sholapur.

The highest maximum temperature recorded at Sholapur was 45.6°C (114.1°F) on May 12, 1939 and the lowest minimum was 4.4°C (39.9°F) on January 7, 1945.

Humidity:

The air is highly humid during the south-west monsoon months, and mostly dry during the rest of the year. The driest part of the year is the summer season when the humidity is between about 20 and 25 per cent on the average in the afternoons.

Cloudiness:

During the south-west monsoon season the skies are heavily clouded or overcast. Skies are generally clear or lightly clouded during the period November to March. Cloudiness increases progressively from May and the afternoons are comparatively more clouded than the mornings.

PLANNING BRIEF

Planning Concept:

The area covered under study zone comprises of medium to heavy soil quality. Profuse availability of stored water has encouraged villagers to grow cash crops.

Facilities:

This site appeared to be environmentally best as also from the business angle and therefore this option was finally adopted. This site is at village Pimpalner and means safe transportation, less need of Utilities, less constructing buildings and roads, less fuel, less water with optimization of infrastructure.

Local Authority has provided all infrastructure like assured Electrical power, continuous water supply with purification from water works having RSF (Rapid Sand Filtration) and disinfection, the internal road network, external approach road.

All surrounding villages are provided with drinking water from wells or Government Water Supply Schemes RWS. Hence we do not encroach upon their supply.

Population Projection:

An official Census 2011 detail of Solapur, a district of Maharashtra has been released by Directorate of Census Operations in Maharashtra. Enumeration of key persons was also done by census officials in Solapur District of Maharashtra.

In 2011, Solapur had population of 4,317,756 of which male and female were 2,227,852 and 2,089,904 respectively. In 2001 census, Solapur had a population of 3,849,543 of which males were 1,989,623 and remaining 1,859,920 were females. Solapur District population constituted 3.84 percent of total Maharashtra population. In 2001 census, this figure for Solapur District was at 3.97 percent of Maharashtra population.

There was change of 12.16 percent in the population compared to population as per 2001. In the previous census of India 2001, Solapur District recorded increase of 19.14 percent to its population compared to 1991.

pg. 47

M/s . Vitthalrao Shinde Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana Ltd. At Post Pimpalner, Tal‐Madha, Dist‐Solapur, Maharashtra. Prefeasibility Report 2018 their future. The requirement of Sugar & Alcohol promotes R & D center in each industrial sector.

Land use planning: The proposed project is in Agricultural area and is a prime Agricultural Land. The land-use is already as “Agricultural”. Thus there is a change in the status. This is flat land whereby Cutting- filling balances and there will be No/Low Borrowing from nature. Topography Map of the proposed site is attached as (Annexure III).

Proposed site will house the facilities, some part will remain untouched for the Future Expansion and 33% area will be demarcated for Green belt development.

Assessment of Infrastructure Demand (Physical and Social): In VS SSK proposed new project will be having only Sugar, Alcohol and Power generation; which require good Physical Infrastructure; so there will be demand of installation of physical infrastructure and social infrastructure. As manpower requirement is optimum for the proposed project which will be from local areas and will not lead to any additional load on the existing social infrastructure

Amenities/Facilities:

VS SSK is proposing Alcohol Manufacturing products in existing agricultural area. Local body provides many basic facilities like uninterrupted water supply, power and Road Network & solids disposal facility. This site is inside the village area and there will be requirement of means safe transportation, need of Utilities, construction of buildings and roads, fuel, water with optimization of infrastructure.

CHAPTER 06

PROPOSED INFRASTRUCTURE

Industrial area:

The proposed project is coming in Agricultural area. There will be production of Alcohol. VSSSKL proposes new proposal of producing Alcohol- 45 KLPD.

Residential Area:

In VSSSKL there will be existing residential colony.

Green Belt:

The total Plot area is 60724.8 sqm demarcated and additional along the boundaries shall be proposed for tree plantation. The selection of trees is based upon the climatological conditions of the Study area.

In and around the VS SSK project plantation is carried out to develop green belt. The treated sewage water is used for green belt development within the factory premises. Following are the status of green belt development.

Design of Green Belt:

The Area Calculation for Green Belt Plan for (Distillery Unit):

Table No. ---- Area Details: Description Area Total plot area (Distillery Unit) 60734.8 Sq. M. Built up area 10120.8Sq. M. Total Open space 20241.6Sq. M.

For Detailed Area break up of industrial unit refer Table No. 2.2 of Chapter 2.

Proposed Tree Plantation:

A comprehensive 'Green Belt Development Programme' would be implemented in a phase wise manner under the proposed project. Features of proposed green belt development programme.

• Trees would be planted in the proposed project's premises along roads as well as along the fence.

pg. 49

M/s . Vitthalrao Shinde Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana Ltd. At Post Pimpalner, Tal‐Madha, Dist‐Solapur, Maharashtra. Prefeasibility Report 2018

• A thick barrier of trees would be created along the entire periphery of the plot. • Trees of commercial importance would be planted. • In the immediate vicinity of ash storage sections /godowns, the trees tolerant to dust would be planted. • As per the recommendations by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) and Ministry of Environment & Forests (MoEF), the green belt would cover more than 40% of open land available with the industry. Based on the above assumption, the green belt development plan has been designed.

The trees along periphery would be planted in the setback margin in three rows with a distance between adjacent trees to the tune of 2 M c/c. Moreover, plantation along the internal roads would be done in single row on either side ofthe road. Here also the distance between adjacent trees is considered as 2 M c/c, and area covered by a single tree is taken as 4 Sq.M.

8-The Criteria for Green Belt Development Plan:

Emission of SPM, S02 is the main criteria for consideration of green belt development. The green belt development is provided to abate effects of the emissions of SPM &

S02.Moreover, there would also be control on noise from the industry to surrounding localities as considerable attenuation would occur due to the barrier of trees in proposed green belt.

From a glance at Table -----, it could be seen that the green belt under unit of "VSSSKL", would cover an area of 4571m2. Further about 1647 trees would be planted under green belt development plan in a phase wise manner. The species of trees that would be planted under the proposed Green Belt Development Plan, based on SPM, S02 and Noise consideration, are as follows-

Social Infrastructure:

In VS SSK there is no need of providing any Social infrastructure as the proposed expansion project is involving only very small number of man power. Existing infrastructure will be sufficient to accommodate the increasing load from the proposed project.

Connectivity:

This proposed manufacturing facility will be located at VS SSK in Solapur district, Maharashtra. The Site is close to village Pimpalner The land and infrastructure is made available by Local Authority and the raw material is easily available through the easy transport via road connectivity and via Sea route and Air route.

The water requirement is about 697cum/ day for Domestic and Processes. The source of water is already availability from existing water works of local authority and the same is adequate and satisfactory. We are not encroaching on anybody’s water source.

Sewage System:

The Domestic Effluent will be treated in Sewage Treatment Plant and will be used for

Industrial Waste Management:

VS SSK proposed Alcohol- 45 KLPD. VSSSKL desires to expansion to produce products in this large size industrial sector. As there is only products, pollution control work can be much streamlined than a heterogeneous mixed stream. The details regarding pollution control of water, waste water, air and solid wastes are as follows:

II) Water consumption &wastewater

The water supply will be through the Ujani Dam. Local body has provided full water works including filtration and disinfection. We are not encroaching on anybody’s water source

At this location there is already a Sugar Unit of the same management exists.

The efforts taken by them in this respect are also indicated. Further, regarding new product looking to the description of manufacturing operations and the corresponding flow sheet, management knows from which unit operation or process, air pollutants are expected. For the purpose of arresting and capturing the pollutants, measures are proposed and designed.

(*) = The Dust Collector of suitable capacity, with hopper bottom. The dust-free air is sucked and thrown into stack through duct by I.D. Fan.

In addition, other attendant efforts like water spraying, tree plantations and covered storage, etc shall be adopted, wherever feasible and required will be done. Totally the pollution control may cost Rs.10 Cr. with O & M anticipated at 10% of it per annum.

It will be our endeavor to procure purer raw materials, to avoid any type of dust or emissions. It will be our endeavor to have smooth and paved internal roads to avoid fugitives and automatic segregator. In addition, other attendant efforts like water spraying, tree plantations and covered storage etc shall be adopted, wherever feasible and needed.

Fugitive Emissions: A number of mitigation measures are taken to control fugitive emissions, the presence of which will be noticeable by plain vision if not controlled. The measures are thus taken seriously and continuously such as:

 Rubber wheel carts/truck stobring in Raw Materials, not filled high, sidescl added, slow speed travel, avoiding vibrationsen-route.

 Collection of fugitive emissions by suitable suction system at the time of casting etc.

 Engineering the plant layout in such a way so as to virtually Eliminate need of using heavy equipment for material handling in the main plant

 Internal roads paved, scrap area paved, leveled, no undulations, no sharp curves, slow speed. No open storage of materials on barren unlined land to the maximum extent possible.

Solid Waste Management:- The main solid waste from this factory will be of non-hazardous from office, garden and sewage Treatment Plant. Non hazardous waste will be segregated as compostable and saleable. This will be so done.

VS SSK has in place the following mitigation policy future:

 Waste minimization at all levels of operations

 The plant will produce very less amount of scrap material. All these will however be

stored carefully on raised platform, with dwarf toe-walls all around and an over head roof.

 The main solid waste from sugar unit will be in form of bagasse which is utilized completely for power generation.

The hazardous waste will be disposed scientifically as per the norms. c) Non Hazardous Solid Waste Based on above working, the summary is  Ash generation will be about 05MT/M.

 This ash will be mixed with the press mud, being sold to the farmers during season.

 Municipal solid waste generated during construction & operation will be Composted and used for Gardening

 The collected ash will be given / sold to cement industries & brick making. d) Hazardous Waste: The different types of hazardous wastes being generated from existing operations as well as those to be generated from proposed activities and their disposal methods are presented in following table.
