There will be no additional water requirement for proposed modification project. Source : Ground Water Power Requirement (MW) : The existing power requirement is 3.2 MW. There will be no additional power requirement for modification project. Source : 3.5 MW Co-generation Power Plant . Manpower Requirement: The existing manpower is 100 persons, which is sufficient after proposed modification also. Source: Unskilled/ Semi-skilled-local area; skilled- nearby areas & outside. Raw Material Requirement: The main raw material required for the project is Grain. Other chemicals required for the distillation process includes enzymes, nutrient, yeast, antifoam agent andsodium hydroxide. After modernization molasses will be used as a raw material. Fuel Requirement: The fuel requirement for the boiler will be Biomass/Rice husk or Coal which will be sourced from nearby areas/open market. Boiler Details: Capacity of existing boiler –35 TPH. After modification for molasses operation additional boiler of 35 TPH capacity shall be installed which be suitable for incineration of molasses spent wash and coal /biomasses. Environment Management Plan Various mitigation measures are being/ will be undertaken to take care of the environment in respect of air, water, noise, soil & the green cover of the plant site & nearby villages. ESP has already been installed with the existing boiler (35 TPH). The same ESP will work with the proposed incinerator boiler (35 TPH) also, because only one boiler will operate at a time. CO2 generated during the fermentation process is being/will be collected by utilizing CO2 scrubbers and sold to authorized vendor. The distillery is being / will be based on Zero Effluent Discharge. Grain Slops (Spent Wash) will be taken through Centrifuge Decanters for separation of Suspended Solids separated as Wet Cake & will then be treated in Multi Effect Evaporator followed by dryer. Solid waste from the Grain based operations generally comprises of fibers and proteins in the form of DDGS, which will be ideally used as Cattle Feed/ Poultry Feed/ Fisheries etc. During Molasses based operation spent wash will be concentrated in MEE and the concentrated spent wash will be mixed with auxiliary fuel and burnt in the incinerator boiler. The Process condensate is being / will be cooled and sent to CPU. After treatment this process condensate is being / will be recycled into process use. Ash from the boiler is being /will be given to nearby brick/Cement manufacturers or used in land application. Globus Spirits Limited 2 .
