Sugar Industry is the one which impact all the populations of the area in there day to day life and has transformed the local area socio- economically.
The first crushing season began in 1986 with the capacity of 1000 TCD. The factory has increased its crushing capacity constantly. Today the capacity is 2500 TCD.
DISTILLERY PLANT
This division is established in the year of 1990 in the sugar factory. The working is quite simple. The molasses coming out of factory is sent in large tanks where fermentation process is carried out. The type of fermentation process used is continuous fermentation process.
The total distillery capacity is 15000 liters per day. This division consist two plants. The capacity of each one is different as given below.
First plant: - 5000 liters per day
Second plant: - 10000 liters per day
The total process carried out is very simple. After fermenting the liquid it comes into large columns where in first it’s heated and in another it’s rapidly cooled. This process gives the alcohol from which further products are designed.
BIOGAS DIVISION
The biogas is the side product of the company. The waste liquid coming out of distillery is processed in two large tanks and biogas is produced. The daily production of biogas is nearly about 30,000 cubic meters per day.
The design used for the biogas production is very simple and conventional one. The biogas department is mainly meant for controlling the activities related with the biogas production. In two large tanks different chemicals are also used to activate the reaction process of biogas formation.
This produced biogas is circulated and used in boilers as fuel which saves the bagas.
ELECTRIC POWER PLANT
There are four boilers and two turbines which produces 6 MW electricity per hour. Among these 3 MW electricity is being used in the factory itself and remaining 3 MW electricity is hinged to power grid in nearby area. There is another one power plant working on diesel which is being used during offseason to supply electricity to residential colony of employees.
