·  By improving efficiency, cogeneration systems can reduce fuel costs associated with

providing heat and electricity to a facility.

·  It saves the fossil fuel consumption by using the as well as and related foreign exchange.

·  It does not increase the foreign exchange cut flow, as the plant and machinery are

indigenously available

·  It has lower installation and operating cost compared to the thermal power plant.

·  The profit made by incomes through exportable power improve financial position of the

sugar factory 

·  Improving power reliability 

In cogeneration systems, it is located at the point of energy use. It provide high-quality and

reliable power and heat locally to the energy user. It helps by reducing congestion on the

electric grid by removing load. In this way, cogeneration systems effectively assist or support 

the electric grid, providing enhanced reliability in electricity transmission and distribution.

·  Reducing environmental impact  

Cogeneration reduces the amount of fuel burned for a given energy output and reduces the

corresponding emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases.

·  Conserving limited resources of fossil fuels

Cogeneration requires less fuel for a given energy output, the use of cogeneration reduces the

demand on our limited natural resources—

including coal, natural gas, and oil—

and improvesour nation's energy security. 

7.0 RAW MATERIALS

Bagasse and water will be main raw material. The total requirement for the unit (including

domestic and other.) 900m3/day .The bagasse is fuel material for this plant will be made

available from the attached sugar factory. Bagasse requirement for cogeneration plant will be

1074.0 MT/day during season and 305 MT /day during non-crushing season.

8.0 WATER REQUIREMENT

The water for sugar/cogeneration plants will be drawn from existing overhead service water

tanks and will be recycled after cooling separately. Water from the reservoirs will be used for all

plant and fire-fighting purposes. To achieve better efficiency and to maintain the plant and

machinery in good condition, it is necessary to have proper water treatment system. Process

water will be treated in a water treatment unit as well as a water-softening unit. By having

15.0 ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION AND WASTE MANAGEMENT

Environment protection and the control of solid, liquid, and gaseous effluent or emissions

are key element in the design of all steam and power generating system. At present the

most significant of these emissions are sulfur dioxide (SO2), Oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and

fine airborne particulate matter (SPM) and gases.

Bagasse being a biomass, a renewable fuel does not add any net CO 2 to the atmosphere,

because of the carbon recycling during the growth of cane. The same is applicable even for

the other biomass fuel propos to be used in the plant during the off-season operation.

15.1 Air Environment 

Atmospheric emission arises primarily from the by-product of the combustion process SO2,

NOx, particulate fly ash are exhausted from the stack. A second source of particulate matter

and gases is fugitive dust from bagasse/Biomass/Ash handling equipment. A final source of 

air emission is the cooling tower and associated thermal rise plume, which contains heat 

and some trace materials along with the water vapor.

 Bhimashankar SSKL  14

The element polluting the air that are discharged from the proposed unit are,

q  Dust particulate from fly ash in flue gas

q  Sulfur-di-oxide in the flue gas (Very minor)

15.1.1 Control Measure 

1.  Electro Static Precipitator(ESP) for effective control of fly ash

2.  The existing stack height is 60 m which is as per norms, considering the particulate

matter emission. There is very little sulfur in biogas (1.5% of total volume). hence

the criteria for fixing stack height based on SO2 emission is applicable. The

temperature encountered in the steam generator while burning high moisture

bagasse and biomass is low enough to minimize the NO2 production.

3.  Moreover, the tender specification for stem generation will stipulate over fire air

system with staged combustion, which will also ensure reduction in Nitrogen –oxide

emission. Hence, no separate measures are taken to nitrogen oxide pollutants.

4.  Fly ash collected from the dust hoppers and the air heater hopper and the ash

collected from the furnace bottom hoppers can be used for two purposes. 

1) The high potash content in the bagasse ash makes the ash good manure.

2) It could be sold to brick manufacturing units as per their requirements. 

15.2 Water Environment 

Aqueous discharge arises from a number of sources. Theses include cooling tower blow-

down, sluice water from the bottom ash handling system, boiler chemical cleaning solution,

and gas side water washing waste solution.

15.2.1 Effluents and Sewage Disposal 

Effluent: Wastewater from power plant does not have any significant BOD/COD level. All

wastewater will be neutralized prior to discharging .An effluent treatment plant for sugar

mill is already in operation for the wastewater and provided with aerators, to meet the

norms prescribed by MPCB. The total waste water generated from various units is

estimated to be about 50-55m3/day. The existing ETP of sugar factory (1000m3capacity) is

adequate to treat the effluents from cogeneration unit.

Sewage: Existing sewage system, which is connected to common septic tank and it 

discharges as per the normal accepted local practices. (Refer Figure 4)

15.3 Solid Waste Generation and Management 

The solid waste will be mainly, the ash generated in the boiler, which collected by

electrostatic precipitator. Total ash generation during crushing season will be 21.48 MT per

day. It will be 6.091MT per day during off season. The boiler ash is usually rich in Potash;

hence it could be directly applied int o agriculture field or sold to the brick manufacturers as

per their demand. Figure 4

15.4 Thermal Pollution

The hot effluents are the spray pond overflow. The hot water will of about 42 0C

temperature and the quantity will be in minor quantity around 4-5 m3/day. This hot water

will be cooled down to normal temperature in cooling pond and then recycled. Hence, there

will be no thermal pollution of any surface water body around the project site.

15.5 Noise Pollution

The principal source of noise generation is the boiler and DG. However the noise generated

in the boiler section will be localized and will not dissipate because of the enclosures

provided. Additionally, transportation and handling of bagasse also could raise the levels of 

noise. The noise generated will be only temporary and during the period of operations.

Considering these facts, the project will have minor negative impact on noise environment.

vender as per the Hazardous waste (Management and handling) Amended Rules, 2003.

15.7 Rain Water Harvesting SchemeRain water is one of the purest sources of water for improving the water table in the sub soil

and also the quality of water. Rain water which is otherwise wasted has to be recharged in

to the soil. This can be adopted either using traditional way or by modern technologies. The

various types of rain harvesting schemes are, diverting rain water collection through proper

channels to the nearest pond or open wells and run off from built in areas mainly roofs are

diverted to storm water drains, which is again taken to the nearest lake / pond.

Building up of recharge structures should be in scientific way. Recharge structures of size

approx. 2x2 m and 3m depth can be dug and filled with pebbles/rubbles of sizes more than

2”. At the center of this structure 6” or 8” pipe is driven to the depth of approx.10m, with

perforation of 1or2.” Such structures can be built at pre-defined places (minimum 4 or 5

places, depending up on the site situation) so that maximum quantity of rain water within

the premises of sugar factory can be collected. The water diverted through channels, from

roof tops and other means can be collected in this recharge structure, which will definitely

improve the water table as well as quality of the water and feed water to the plant during

drought season.

The industry has planned to implement the rainwater-harvesting project. It will appoint a

special consultant, under his guidance the project will be designed and implemented.
