Management � Out of the total plant area ~ 33% of total project area will be developed under

green belt/plantation.

� Plantation will be done as per Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) Norms.

� Greenbelt will be developed all along the plant boundary and plantation will be

done all along the roads which attenuates noise level, arrest dust and improves

the surrounding environment.

� Native species will be given priority for plantation in consultation with local

horticulturist.

� The plantation would start along with the start of the construction activities of

the proposed unit.

Odour Management

Management � Odour will be primarily controlled at source by good operational practices,

including physical and management control measures.

� Better housekeeping will be maintained with good hygiene condition by regular

steaming of all fermentation equipment.

� Use of efficient biocides to control bacterial contamination.

� Control of temperature during fermentation to avoid in-activation / killing of

2.0 INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/ BACKGROUND INFORMATION

(i) Identification of Project and Project Proponent

Ankoor Distilleries Private Limited is formerly known as Parag Commodeal Pvt. Ltd. was

incorporated on 17.08.2008 for the Trading activities. Shri Mahendra Sharma, Shri

Abhishek Sharma and Shri Aditya Sharma are the Directors of the company. But company

have alter its main object to manufacturing of Extra Neutral Alcohol/Rectified Alcohol/and

others. Its CIN is U74900WB2008PTC125792 and registered office is 33, Masjid Bari Lane,

Asansol - 713301, (W.B.).

(ii) Brief description of nature of the project

Ankoor Distilleries Private Limited is proposing to set up Extra Neutral Alcohol/ Rectified

Sprites / Ethanol/Industrial Alcohol/Total Alcohol etc. manufacturing facility with an

installed capacity of 200 KLD along with CO2 & Distillers Dried Grains & Solubles (DDGS)

for Cattle/Poultry/Fish or Prawn feed as by-products. For the purpose of setting up the

unit, the site is located at Ghusra, Tehsil Mejhia in Bankura District of West Bengal. The

company will manufacture ENA through grain based process. The proposed site is chosen

because of its proximity to the agriculture field surrounding the area & easy availability of

food grains like rice to the distillery for producing alcohol. Apart from ENA, the company

will also produce few by products such as Technical Alcohol, DDGS for cattle/Poultry/Fish

or Prawn feed, Fusel Oil and Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

(iii) Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region

With hundreds of kind of alcoholic beverages being made and consumed in India, the

industry can be categorised into four broad groups’ viz. Indian Made Foreign Liquor

(IMFL), Country Liquor (CL), illicit liquor & Beer.

IMFL products contain about 42.85% of alcohol. The consumption of CL is slowly on the

decreasing trend as some cheap IMFL is available. In spite of this, the CL industry is

growing at around 8%. However, government is taking necessary steps to restrict the illicit

liquor as it causes loss of revenue and spoils the health of the people, also bad quality may

lead to death of consumer. The major consumption of alcohol as of now is for alcoholic

beverages. Ethyl alcohol has the potential to become the fuel of the future relegating

gasoline to a secondary place.





The ethanol produced from the grains is superior in quality as compared with that from

molasses. It is estimated that IMFL market will require around 3000 million litres in the

year 2014 and expected to grow more than 50% in next 3 years. As Government declares

5% mandatory mixing of fuel ethanol in the gasoline thus there is great potential for new

distillery establishment.

In the present scenario, in West Bengal 75 million litres of alcohol will be consumed for the

production of IMFL in a year. Out of total requirement, manufacturers are arranging

locally nearly 40 percent from the one sole grain distillery unit named as M/s. IFB Agro

Industries Pvt. Ltd. So clearly there is huge scope to capitalise the shortage of availability

of spirit and it can happen if one can set up a second distillery in West Bengal.

The ethyl alcohol manufactured from molasses is largely being used for blending with

petrol. This leaves a lesser quantity for the potable alcohol industry which in turn causes

the potable alcohol industry to rely completely on ethyl alcohol manufactured from grain.

Since the potable alcohol industry is constantly growing at a good rate and is insulted

from economic conditions hence the future of a grain distillery is ensured.

(iv) Demand- Supply Gap

Center’s Blending programme to boost the demand of Alcohol: - The Center’s Program of

blending 10 % ethanol in petrol has given an assured scope for ethanol industry in the

country. The Center’s Kisan-friendly imitative has definitely been a boost to the venture.

The demand supply gap for liquor beverages in the state of West Bengal is as follows:

Table 2

Demand-Supply Gap in Liquor in West Bengal

Year Production (KL) Demand (KL) Gap (KL)

2007-08 135164 162000 26836

2008-09 152388 181440 29052

2014-15 (E) 234458 358130 123672

Similar factors that are mentioned above are driving the demand for the alcoholic

beverages in the country as well. The past and estimated demand for demand for IMFL

and country liquor in the country is as follows:

Marketing Plan

The promoters of the company will take care of the marketing activity of the company.

The promoters of the company have long presence in the diversified industrial activity. As

the demand for ENA is very high in the market the company is unlikely to face any problem

in the selling its product. Further, the company is in the process of marketing its products

with other manufacturers of the IMFL in W.B including UB group, Seagrams, Khaitan,

Radico, McDowell etc.

(v) Import vs. Indigenous Production

Indian market could not meet present alcohol demand. So they import alcohol 5-7% of

total demand. As far as ethanol production is concerned, Indian market play a vital role at

both domestic & international level. So they require produce the more alcohol to meet the

demand.

(vi) Export Possibility

The project site being nearer to both Orissa and Jharkhand states, the selected plant

location is ideal for growing markets especially West Bengal, Orissa & Jharkhand. Further,

proximity to the Haldia port is ideal for export of product to neighbouring countries.

(vii) Domestic / Export Markets

The entire production is envisaged for the domestic purpose mainly but as per

international markets demand (like Bangladesh, Nepal, and Bhutan etc.) product can be

exported via Sea route through Haldia Port or by Road/Rail.





(viii) Employment Generation (Direct and Indirect) due to the project

For smooth functioning of the plant, the company needs a team of 100 persons. These

persons are responsible towards their respective department such as Process Plant, Boiler

Operating Plant and administrative block. Here is the detail description of the manpower

requirement of the company.

(vi) Project Description with Process Details

Process Description of Grain Based Operation

A) GRAIN STORAGE SILOS, CLEANING, HANDLING AND MILLING SECTION:

Grain is received from various sources and is pre-cleaned off stones, husk, etc. and then

stored in specially designed storage silos. Grains are continuously lifted from the bottom

of the silos and screened followed by removal of stones in de-stoner and iron matters in

magnetic separators. Cleaned Grains are then milled using dry milling process in Hammer

Mills. The flour is fed through the bucket elevator and conveyed to the Batch Tipping

Machine through a Screw Conveyor.

B) SLURRY PREPARATION / LIQUEFACTION

Slurry from pre-masher is taken to Initial liquefaction tank where liquefying enzyme is

added.. The mixture of slurry and steam is then passed through the retention vessel (cook

tube) having sufficient capacity to provide the desired retention time at a given flow rate.

The cooked mash is discharged to a flash tank for liquefaction.

The gelatinized mash from the flash tank is further liquefied in a final liquefaction tank





where liquefying enzyme is added. Then the liquefied mash is cooled in slurry cooler and

transferred to Fermentation section.

C) FERMENTATION SECTION

The purpose of fermentation is to convert the fermentable substrate into alcohol. At the

start of the cycle, the fermenter is charged with mash and contents of the Yeast

Activation Vessel. Significant heat release takes place during fermentation. This is

removed by passing cooling water through the Fermenter PHE’s to maintain an optimum

temperature. The recirculating pumps also serve to empty the fermenter into Beer Well.

D) DISTILLATION SECTION

Wash to ENA Multi-pressure: -

Pre-heated fermented wash is fed into a series of Distillation Columns to increase the

alohol concentration and remove various impurities .The columns are termed as below:

� Degasifier

� Analyzer

� Pre Rectifier

� Extractive Distillation

� Exhaust

� Recovery

� Simmering

ENA drawn from the Simmering Column is taken to the receiver after cooling in ENA

cooler.

E) EVAPORATION SECTION

The slop discharged from the Analyzer column is taken to the evaporation section for

concentrating the slop up to 40 % w/w solids.

Treatment scheme is a series of evaporation effects working on the principle of falling film

Evaporation & Forced circulation.

F) DRYER SECTION

The concentrated syrup is mixed with the wet cake from the decantation section .This

mixture is termed as DWGS which is then fed in Dryer to reduce the moisture of upto 10 %.

This by product is termed as DDGS which is in a powder form.

G) PROCESS CONDENSATE TREATMENT SECTION

The process condensate from the evaporation section is treated in this unit and this

treated condensate is then recycled back to process thus reducing the fresh water

consumption.
