Project detail:
M/s SGS Biofuels Pvt. Ltd., the project proponent, proposes to install a green field project of grain based distillery to produce ethanol for blending with petroleum. Since the location of
proposed project site in agriculturally prominent area of Buxar, Bihar, proponent intends to use grain as raw material. To meet the power required for the proposed project, proponent
wish to install own power plant also. For power generation, fuel proposed is rice husk or bagasse
The present proposal is to set up a distillery using grains as raw material. The product ethanol is intended for use in blending with petrol under EBP Programme. The project is predominantly grain based and is environment friendly. It will use renewable sources of energy (biomass) to meet power requirement. CO2 will be the by-product which will be
collected, liquefied stored and sold to other users. DDGS will be another by product to ensure ZLD project. DDGS is used as cattle feed.
Grains such as damaged grain feed stock, broken rice, maize, bajra & sorghum will be used as raw material which is easily available from the local market.
Fuel Ethanol is basically used for blending petrol supplied by Oil marketing companies (OMCs). The proposed project will contribute to narrow the gap of demand/ supply of Indian made
Fuel ethanol. Govt. of India has mandated 10% blending of Ethanol in Petrol by 2022 so as to reduce dependence on imported Crude Oil and to provide a cleaner fuel. The project will help
fulfilling the demand for Ethanol. In addition to it, this will also provide employment.
Company proposed Greenfield Project for grain based distillery project of 200 KLPD along with Biomass based Captive Power Plant of 6.0 MW located at, Industrial Area, Nawanagar,
District-Buxar, State-Bihar.
There are no interlinked projects related to this project. Power and Steam will be sourced from in house captive Power Plant .
The overall estimated project cost for the proposed unit is 212.0 Cr.
