EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

M/s. Claris Lifesciences Limited (CLL) has its manufacturing campus known as “Clarion

Campus” on Rajkot highway, which is 26 km away from city of Ahmedabad. Three major

regions have been considered for survey of biomass (Castor De oiled Cake and Saw Dust

only) assessment survey i.e. North Gujarat, Middle Gujarat and North West Gujarat.

The major focus was upon following issues Collection of relevant primary and secondary data. Estimation of the available biomass feeds, their current and potential uses,

estimation of biomass available specifically for said project. Evaluation of the stakeholders’ attitude, capabilities, limitations, etc. Evaluation of potential sources and their locations

CLL has installed one 16 TPH FBC boiler along with 2.0 MW steam turbine in Phase-I.

Phase-II of the same project includes another boiler of 10 TPH with 2.0 MW turbine. The

cogeneration plant at Claris Lifesciences Ltd. consumes around 65 – 70 MT per day of

Castor De oiled Cake (Biomass) as a main fuel. The total requirements for both the

phases would be around 100 – 110 MT per day. Thus, the annual requirements of Castor

De-oiled Cake during Phase-I and after completion of Phase – II would be 24500 MT and

38500 MT respectively. However, to ensure the smooth operation of the facility, Saw Dust

is a secondary fuel that can be used in Power Plant in case of insufficient supply of DOC.

M/s. RAVI ENERGIE carried out a study to assess the availability of Biomass for Claris

Lifesciences Limited in defined part of Gujarat. The primary and secondary data collected

alongwith other information was compiled and analysed and is tabulated as follows.

CHAPTER – 1: GUJARAT AT A GLANCE

LOCATION

Gujarat is situated on the west coast of India between 20-6' N to 24-42' N north latitude

and 68-10'E to 74-28'E east longitude. It is bounded by the Arabian Sea in the West,

Rajasthan State in the North and North-East, Madhya Pradesh State in the East and

Maharashtra State in the South and South East. Gujarat State at present comprises of 25

districts, sub-divided into 226 talukas, having 18618 villages and 242 towns. Gujarat has

geographical area of 1.96 lacs sq. km and accounts for 6.19 percent of the total area of

the country.

DEMOGRAPHY

According to the provisional results of Population Census

2001, the population of Gujarat as on 1st March 2001,

stood at 5.06 crore, including the estimated population of

earthquake affected areas. The decadal growth rate of

the decade 1991-2001 has increased in comparison to

1981-1991 from 21.19 percent to 22.48 percent.

The density of Gujarat is 258 persons per sq.km in 2001. The literacy rate in the State

(excluding children in the age group 0-6 years) has increased from 61.29 per cent in 1991

to 69.97 per cent in 2001. About 37.67 per cent population of Gujarat resides in urban

areas (Excluding earthquake affected areas). Out of the total population of 483.87 lacs in

the state (excluding the earthquake affected areas), 203.7 lacs (42.10 per cent) were

workers and 280.2 lacs (57.90 per cent) were non-workers. According to the provisional

results of population census 2001, the total number of households was 96.44 lacs.

AGRO CLIMATIC DETAILS

In terms of the standard climatic types, tropical climate such as sub-humid, arid and semi-

arid, is spread over different regions of the state. Out of total area of the state 58.60% falls

under arid and semi-arid climatic zone. The arid zone contributes 24.94 per cent, while the

semi-arid zone forms 33.66 per cent of the total area of the state. The regions in the

extreme north comprising the district of Kutchh and the western parts of Banaskantha and

Mehsana, the northern fringe (Jamnagar) and the western part of Saurashtra have arid

climate while the rest of the State has semi-arid climate.

BIOENERGY IN GUJARAT

The BIOMASS / ORGANIC WASTE generated in our country (villages semi urban & urban

areas) consists of following types:

Biomass : Crop Residues/ Waste

Agriculture waste

Animal Dung

Organic Waste : Agro – food processing industries

Pulp & paper

Edible & non-edible oil exploring units waste

Sugar/ Distilleries Industrial wastes

Municipal waste

Industrial waste

The above wide range of industrial, urban, agricultural, crop and animal dung etc waste

which is organic waste by nature is proved to be the best and effective source of energy

generation. The energy produced from such Biomass or organic waste is well known as

BIO-ENERGY. Gujarat has very good prospects of Crop residues, agriculture waste, agro

food processing industries, edible and non-edible oil exploring units waste1.

CHAPTER – 2: OBJECTIVES The objective of this study is to assess whether Gujarat is generating enough Biomass (Castor De oiled Cake and Saw Dust) and thereby checking surplus availability to Power Plant of Claris Lifesciences Ltd. The following elements make up the overall scope of the work. Collection of relevant primary and secondary data. Estimation of the available biomass feeds, their current and potential uses,

estimation of biomass available specifically for said project. Evaluation of the stakeholders’ attitude, capabilities, limitations, etc. Evaluation of potential sources and their locations

Biomass Assessment was carried out in three zones of 50 km radius, 50 to 200 km radius

and 200 to 400 km radius. Main districts producing biomass are examined for above

objectives.

METHODOLOGY a) Collection of Primary Data:

Assignment based and trained team of field surveyors were sent to various districts of

Gujarat state specially North Zone, Middle Zone and North West Zone to collect data,

which leads to generation and consumption of concerned Biomass. Ravi Energie designed

questionnaires and the field staff was trained to see that the focus is on concerned

Biomass. The team targeted following groups for primary data collections

Progressive Farmers Cooperative Bodies Castor Processing Units Extension Staff Of Agriculture Universities Government Offices

Districts covered under 50 km of radial distance:

Ahmedabad Gandhinagar Kheda

Districts covered under 50 km – 200 km of radial distance:

Banaskantha Baroda (Vadodara) Anand Mehsana Patan Panchmahal Sabarkantha

Districts covered under 200 km – 400 km of radial distance:

Kutch Rajkot

b) Collection of Secondary Data: References were taken from the following sources:

a) Official data/information from State Govt. Departments, Agricultural Universities in Gujarat, Districts Local Self Government Bodies

b) District Industry Centre c) District Panchayat Offices d) Census Data e) Existing material of a similar nature

Page 15: Ravi Energie

Ravi Energie www.ravienergie.com

Document no: RE/CLL/001/1208-Rev6 Page 12

c) Study and Analysis of Assessed Data:

The primary data (and its verification in comparison to the secondary data) helped in

working out cropping pattern. It also established whether there is enough biomass to feed

the plant on a daily basis. The information collected has been compiled in the following

pages to offer an analysis of existing patterns, generation of biomass, consumption of

biomass and surplus available.

A direct source of Castor De oiled Cake is castor processing units – castor solvent

extraction processing units to be specific. However, castor, being raw materials for the

processing units, we have tried to quantify production of castor seeds in Gujarat as a

whole based on farmers interview, cropping area under cultivation, average yield of

various types of castor varieties, percentage of castor de oiled cake generated during

processing.

The methodology for generation of sawdust is required to be considered differently as the

generation of saw dust can never be correlated with the inputs and production of wood in

India as the generation of sawdust is wastage during saw cutting and processing of

imported timber.

The schematic arrangement showing Modes Operandii is as per Annexure – A.

CHAPTER – 3: LOCATION OF THE PROJECT

Claris Lifesciences Limited has manufacturing campus named as “Clarion Campus”

located at Ahmedabad - Bawla Highway, Village: Chacharwadi Vasna, Taluka Sanand, in

the district of Ahmedabad.

The geographical location of the district is 22.98° N 72.38° E. It is 26 km away from

Ahmedabad in south – west direction. The nearest railway station and airport is at

Ahmedabad.

This Power Plant is using Castor De-Oiled Cake as major fuel and Saw Dust as secondary

fuel collectively and/or individually described as “Biomass” for generation of steam and

power with the help of Turbine Generator installed in the power plant.

CHAPTER – 4: BIOMASS GENERATION

CASTOR SEED AND DE OILED CAKE GENERATION IN GUJARAT:

There are seven varieties of castor in produced Gujarat developed progressively since

1973 till 1999 tabulated below4:

Sr. No.

Variety of Castor Year of Development

Yield (Kg/Hectare)

Average Yield as per Farmers interview

1 GAUC – 1 1973 1242 These varieties are not produced now 2 GAUCH – 1 1973 1518

3 GCH – 2 1985 1747

4 GCH – 4 1986 1985 1900

5 GC – 2 1993 1707 1700

6 GCH – 5 1994 2826 2750

7 GCH – 6 1999 2325 2300

8 GCH – 7 2005 3000 3000

Reference: Annexure – B

Since, the latest developed variety GCH – 7 is giving highest yield, majority of the farmers

are inclined to shift their choice towards high yielding varieties due to extension activities

by state agriculture department.

Most of the farmers sow irrigated castor between July to August and non-irrigated castor

during October and November. Major harvesting is carried out from December to March.

However, the oil mills are running 24 x 365 days.\

A study suggests that 87% of total production of castor in country is contributed by Gujarat

and Rajasthan state (71% and 16% respectively)5. Mehsana and Banaskantha are the

largest castor producing districts in Gujarat. In Gujarat majority of castor cultivation comes

from 6 districts of North Gujarat, viz., Mehsana, Banaskantha, Sabarkantha, Gandhinagar,

Patan and Kutch.6

application in many industries like Paint, Lubricant, Pharmaceutical, Textiles, etc.

However, even there are three different estimates; we can optimally consider the yield of

1800 Kg/Hectare for given objective.

Estimated production of Castor Seed in State of Gujarat11 as compared

to earlier years is as per following details:

Year Area (‘000 Hectare)

Yield (Kg/Hectare)

Reference: Annexure: C2 For our purpose, the primary data of castor mills about generation of Castor DOC is

required to be studied, which is linked with castor production in the state. There are

approximately 20 units of castor processing who are generating castor de oiled cake as a

byproduct as tabulated below.12

Out of total units in Gujarat, we have surveyed some of the major castor seed processing

units and details of survey are tabulated below:

Generally, there is no direct trading between farmers and processing units. It is always

through traders and there are chances of interstate transfer of castor. We have not

considered other state’s data on production and consumption for the purpose of this

survey.

Quantity of Biomass (Castor De oiled Cake) Generation in Gujarat by

processing units:

From the primary data, the yield of Castor DOC turns out to be 55% to 60%. We also took

the samples of castor and analyzed for oil content and worked out the percentage of cake

by weight, which is found to be approximately 58%. Considering the total castor seed

production of 879300 Tons, the net generation of Castor DOC shall be 509994 Tons.

GENERATION OF SAW DUST:

The only source of sawdust as the name implies is a Saw Mill and we concentrated our

survey in a zone where there is a maximum density of sawmills. Gandhidham, Kutch area

in Gujarat is a thickly populated saw mill area because of nearby ports namely Kandla and

Mundra, where majority of the wood is imported to India is unloaded.

CHAPTER – 5: BIOMASS CONSUMPTION

CONSUMPTION OF CASTOR DE OILED CAKE:

As is a known fact, India is one of the largest producers of agriculture products like

cereals, pulses and oilseeds. Gujarat is also a major state in field of producing various

crops. Gujarat state is having variety of crops including Cereals like Paddy, Bajra, Barley,

Maize, wheat, etc., Pulses like Tur, Moong, Urad, etc., and Oil seeds like Groundnut, Teel,

Castor, Soya bean, Cottonseed, etc.

The primary data for consumption of Castor De oiled Cake, being a sensitive data cannot

be extrapolated using a small sample survey of end-users i.e. farmers. Mentality of

farmers indicate that 5 % prefer organic manure and 95% prefer chemical fertilisers, which

are available at subsidized rate and giving higher yield compared to cost incurred. In India,

the chemical fertilisers with primary nutrients like Nitrogen (N), Phosphorous (P) and

Potassium (K) are subsidized. In year 2007 – 2008, there was total subsidy outflow of

around Rs. 50000 Crores, which was more than budgeted amount. The levels of

concession have been varying between Rs. 2500 Rs. 4200 per ton over the last decade,

which is approximately 40%.14 The consumption of 5% includes various De oiled Cakes

including Castor DOC and cow dung. Thus, the only primary source of consumption is the

industries selling Castor DOC for various purposes.

The feedback given by various industries to the survey team is tabulated

The biomass is consumed as organic manure within or outside state of Gujarat. There is

no other major use of biomass noted during survey to agro industries mentioned in above

table. As per the survey, the average consumption of biomass is ranging from 369745

Tonnes/Annum to 392695 Tonnes/Annum. Out of average consumption, biomass used as

organic manure is around 273611 Tonnes/Annum to 290595 Tonnes/Annum and other

uses of biomass are approximately 96134 Tonnes/Annum to 102100 Tonnes/Annum out

of total production.

CHAPTER – 6: SURPLUS AVAILABILITY

SURPLUS BIOMASS (CASTOR DE OILED CAKE):

After estimating the biomass generation from the possible sources and the total biomass

consumption, we can establish surplus biomass available from state as detailed below.

As per survey carried out for major companies involved in the processing of Castor seeds

and thereby producing Biomass (Castor De oiled Cake), on an average basis 72.5% to

77% of total Biomass production is sold out. Rest 23% to 27.5% remains unused and is of

no use, which gradually goes on decay. They also have added that out of sold Biomass,

approximately 74% is used as organic manure and 26% is used for any other unorganized

use like energy generation or fertilizer.

SURPLUS BIOMASS (SAW DUST):

Our survey team has observed large heaps of sawdust lying at sawmills, which are not

completely utilised. As feedback given by saw millers, many times saw miller has to

dispose of saw dust, which is costing to them. Normal consumption is done by

particleboard industries, ceramic industry, brick industry, etc. These consumptions

account for approximately at an average of 581.80 Tons/Annum per sawmill thereby

CHAPTER – 7: CHARACTERISTICS OF BIOMASS

CHARACTERISTICS OF CASTOR DE OILED CAKE:

Castor oil mills in Gujarat, producing De oiled Cake, are facing problems related to bulk

storage, disintegration of De oiled Cake, if not used, increase in fire hazard and

subsequent increase in risk to be covered under insurance leading to increase in

insurance premium. If not used, biodegradation of De oiled Cake leads to generation of

Methane and hence leading to further damage to ozone layer.

The solvent extracted cake, although rich in protein cannot be used as cattle feed because

of its toxicity. However, it can be used as a fertilizer. The seeds and residual cake are

highly poisonous and unless processed to remove the poisons cannot be fed to livestock.

Poisons contained in the cake include ricin.15

CHAPTER – 8: SURVEYOR’S VIEWS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

1. It was difficult to get feedback with clarity from farmers.

2. Replies related to production and cropped area from the farmers were without

consistency due to changes in cropping pattern year by year.

3. All were happy with good rainy seasons in past few year in addition to irrigation

canals of Narmada reaching to various corners of the State.

4. All inclination was observed towards cash crops like cotton, tobacco, castor,

vegetables, etc.

5. Castor has advantages like

(a) No damage by cattle to the crop

(b) Little less security required for farms

(c) Security required at the time of harvesting only

(d) “Sow and Forget” mentality of farmers should be given thought, as good

farming practice is always good for better yield

6. Transportation costs for different fertilizers like cow dung and DOC is a major

drawback for its usage as organic manure.

7. Industries were inclined towards optimisation of their profits, finding opportunities

for sale of the DOC.

8. Suspicion about adulteration with soil and other materials in Castor DOC is a

limiting factor for use as organic manure by farmers.

9. Huge heaps of DOC and sawdust were noted probably leading to disposal issues

for industries.

10. There was a general opinion about increase in production of Castor DOC in future.

11. The sawmills are facing problems of storage and disposal of saw dust. Sawdust,

generally, is stored in open space. Due to high winds in Gandhidham-Kutch area,

losses are too high and polluting the surrounding atmosphere.

12. Decay of Sawdust occurs very fast during monsoon and because of dew in winter.
