Project Detail:
Expansion of distillery unit from 80 KLPD to 120 KLPD ethanol unit to achieve the final capacity of 200 KLPD.
Alcohol has assumed a very important place in the economy of the country after the ethanol blending program started in 2007. The ethanol blending program which started with 5% ethanol was looked upon as a step towards reducing dependence on import of petroleum. The National Biofuels Policy of 2018 aims to ensure availability of a minimum level of biofuels to meet the demand with an indicative target of 20% blending of biofuels till 2025. It stipulates Ethanol Blended with Petrol (EBP) Programme as its main component, offering indigenous and non-polluting renewable energy source.
Successful implementation of the programme would not only result in substantial reduction in air pollution but also save precious foreign exchange through import substitutions.
With Fuel Ethanol Policy being favorably implemented, huge opportunities have been created for further expansion of distilleries in India. Hence, with rising demand of fuel ethanol, M/s. ShreenathMhaskoba Sakhar Karkhana Ltd. has decided to undertake expansion of distillery unit with change in effluent treatment scheme.
Total Project Cost: Cr. 149
