Preface

The ind ustrial sector represents m ore than one third of both global prim ary energy use and
energy-related carbon d ioxid e em issions. In d eveloping countries, the energy supply
consum ed by the ind ustrial sector is frequently in excess of 50% and so can create tension s
betw een econom ic d evelopm ent goals and a constrained energy supply. Particularly,
countries like Ind ia, w ith an em erging and rapid ly expand ing ind ustrial infrastructure, have
an opportunity to increase their com petitiveness by applying energy -efficient best practices
from the outset in its new ind ustrial facilities.

Despite the potential, policym akers frequently overlook the opportunities presented by
ind ustrial energy efficiency to m ake a significant im pact on clim ate change m itigation,
energy security and sustainability. The com m on perception is that achieving energy
efficiency of the ind ustrial sector is too com plex to be ad d ressed through public po licy and ,
further, that ind ustrial facilities w ill achieve energy efficiency directly through com petitive
pressures in the m arketplace. One such initiative und er the N ational Mission on Enhanced
Energy Efficiency (N MEEE) is the Perform Achieve and Trad e (PAT) schem e. This is a
m arket based m echanism having the objective to enhance energy efficiency (target based ) in
Ind ia w ith an option to trad e the ad ditional energy savings in the form of energy saving
certificates.

In the first phase eight ind ustrial subsectors w ere covered und er the PAT schem e. There are
further plans to w id en the coverage by ad ding new ind ustrial subsectors based on the
energy consum ption levels. Shakti Sustainable Energy Found ation (SSEF) and The Energy
and Resources Institute (TERI) intend to assist the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) in
expand ing the PAT schem e to new sectors in subsequent phases.

As a part of this exercise, the Ind ia country profile of a few selected subsectors along w ith
their energy intensity has been establish ed . It w as d one after interactions w ith relevant
ind ustrial associations / ind ustry head s and compiling d ata from second ary sources. For
this report on the Sugar sector inputs w ere received from the Ind ian Sugar Mills Association
(ISMA), N ational Fed eration of Cooperative Sugar Factories Ltd (N FCSC) and The Sugar
Technologists‟ Association of Ind ia (STAI). Statistics about sugar mills, crushing capacities,
annual country-w id e crushing and average operational d ay d etails w ere collected from the
Sugar Ind ia Yearbook 12. Second ary d ata available in other public sources w ere also
review ed w hile preparing this report.

We believe that this sector m anual w ill act as a guid e for next steps and establish a need to
stud y the energy consum ption th oroughly to set the threshold limit for eligibility for
d esignated consum ers.

Executive Summary

The Ministry of Pow er and Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) are entrusted w ith the
im plem entation of the National Mission on Enhanced Energy Efficiency (N MEEE) und er the
N ational Action Plan on Clim ate Change (NAPCC). One of the key com ponents of the
m ission is Perform , Achieve and Trad e (PAT) mechanism . This is a m arket based
m echanism to im prove the energy efficiency in large energy intensive industries and
facilities cost-effectively by certifying energy savings that could be trad ed . The PAT
m echanism is d esigned to facilitate the Designated Consum ers (DCs) to achieve their legal
obligations und er the Energy Conservation Act (EC Act) of 2001, w hich w as am end ed in
2010.

The ensuing PAT scheme applies to 8 ind ustrial sub-sectors, w hich are Pow er Plant,
Alum inium , Pulp & Paper, Chlor- Alkali, Cement, Iron & Steel, Textile and Fertilizer.
During the first phase of the PAT cycle (3 years starting from 1st April 2012), as per the
recent notification, 478 designated consum ers (DCs) have been id entified. They are obliged
to red uce their energy consum ption by a specific target set by the BEE. The expected energy
savings from this schem e is about 6-8 m illion tonnes of oil equivalent (mMtoe) in this
period . The over achievers w ill earn tradable Energy Saving (ESCerts) w hereas the und er
achievers w ill be liable to com ply through purchase of ESCerts or by paying penalty.

The BEE plans to w id en the coverage of the PAT schem e in phases by ad d ing new ind ustrial
subsectors d epen ding on the energy consum ption. H ow ever, there is a need to stud y the
energy consum ption in detail for the new ind ustrial segm ents to establish the threshold limit
for the eligibility for DCs. Shakti Sustainable Energy Found ation (Shakti or SSEF) operates as
a partner institution of the Clim ate Works Found ation, and has been focusing its efforts on
clean and secured energy future for all in Ind ia. SSEF in consultation w ith TERI is assisting
the BEE in w id ening the net of the PAT schem e by ad d ing new subsect ors in subsequent
phases of the PAT scheme. The four subsectors identified by SSEF to stud y the energy
consum ption in d etail so as to establish the threshold lim it for the eligibility as DCs are

 Copper & zinc

 Glass & ceram ics
 Sugar
 Vegetable oil refineries

The initial task has been to m ap the id entified four sub sectors in the Indian context and
prepare a broad sectorial report. This subsector overview report on Sugar Ind ustry covers
inform ation on large and m ed ium m anufacturers, num ber of plants existing, prod uction
capacity, technology types and technological d evelopm ent in the last d ecad e, capacity
utilization, energy efficiency levels, estim ated energy saving potential, GH G inventory,
m itigation potential and barriers to im plem ent energy efficiency m easures, and regulatory
and policy issues having a bearing on im proving the efficiency in the sector.

The purpose of the sectorial report is m ainly to und erstand the energy intensity of the
subsector, technology adopted and its energy efficiency levels. It also assesses the potential
for red uction in energy consum ption across the subsector and the gaps in technology. It

1
Wid ening the coverage of PAT Schem e – Su gar Sector

provid es an overall energy scenario about the subsector to all the stakehold ers. This
overview report is prepared based on secondary inform ation available in the public d om ain.
Inform ation and d ata w ere also collected by interacting w ith ind ustrial associations and
ind ustrial experts in this subsector.

The sugar ind ustry is one of the largest energy users am ong ind ustry sector using bagasse
for m eeting both therm al energy and electricity requirem ents. Out of the 527 operating sugar
m ills in Ind ia, about 99 sugar m ills have installed capacities of 5000 TCD and above. These
sugar m ills can be brought und er tw o broad categories viz. (1) sugar m ills w ith steam d riven
m ills and (2) sugar mills w ith electrical m otor d riven m ills. H ence the sugar m ills above
5000TCD capacity m ay be taken up for d etailed stud y in the upcom ing phase. The estim ated
annual energy consum ption of these sugar m ills vary betw een 45,000 toe per year to 90,000
toe per year. A large num ber of these sugar m ills have ad opted cogeneration route to m eet
their overall energy requirem ents. As per the collected inform ation and d iscussions w ith
stakeholders d uring the sectoral w orkshop, there exists a significant energy saving potential
of about 20% in sugar ind ustries. Therefore it is suggested that these 99 large sugar m ills
(w hich operate either separately or as a group) m ay be consid ered as DCs und er the PAT
schem e w ith a threshold lim it of 30,000 toe as the m inim um annual energy consum ption per
m ill.

1.0 Introduction
1.1 Sector Importance
The sugar ind ustry is a sector of significant im portance to the national econom y. While
sugar consum ption has been grow ing over the years, the prod uction has been cyclical.
Currently, the sugar industry is regulated across the value chain from prod uction t o end
consum er. Investm ents to generate by-prod ucts are at a nascent stage, and the sector has
struggled to generate a return on invested capital in excess of its cost of capital in m ost
years, prim arily d ue to a high m and ated fixed cane price and a volatile sugar price.

Sugarcane is primarily grow n in nine Ind ian states: And hra Prad esh, Bihar, Gujarat,
H aryana, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Punjab, Uttar Prad esh and Tamil N ad u. More than 50
m illion farm ers and their fam ilies are d epend ent on sugarcane prod uce for their livelihood .
The sugar ind ustry caters to an estim ated 12% of rural population in these nine states
through d irect and ind irect em ploym ent. Effectively, each farm er contributes to the
prod uction of 2.9 m etric tonnes of sugar every year.

The sugar ind ustry is a green ind ustry and is largely self-sufficient in energy need s through
use of bagasse for generating electricity and steam. In fact, the sugar ind ustry generates
surplus exportable energy through cogeneration and contributes in red ucing the en ergy
d eficit that Ind ia is currently facing. The sugar ind ustry is also the prim ary source of raw
m aterial for the alcohol ind ustry in India. The annual econom ic contribution of the sugar
ind ustry to the exchequer through ind irect taxes am ounts to m ore tha n IN R 2800 Crores.

The sugarcane price accounts for approxim ately 70% of the ex-m ill sugar price. H ow ever,
fund am ental changes in the consum er profile and the d em onstrated ability of the sector to
continuously ensure availability of sugar for d omestic consum ption has d iluted the need for
sugar to be consid ered as an essential com m od ity. Accord ing to a recently cond ucted nation -
w id e survey, nearly 75% of the total non -levy sugar is consum ed by ind ustrial, sm all
business and high income household segm ents.

1.2 Prevailing N ational / International Scenario

Sugar is prod uced in 115 countries across the w orld . It is extracted from d ifferent raw
m aterials such as sugarcane and sugar beet. Sugarcane is cultivated in tropical clim ate, w hile
sugar beet is grow n in tem perate regions. Of the 115 sugar prod ucing countries, 67 prod uce
sugar from cane, 39 from beet and 9 from both cane and beet. Brazil, Ind ia, Thailand ,
Australia and Cuba are the largest sugarcane prod ucers. The beet sugar prod ucing countries
includ e the US, Turkey, Ukraine, Poland and Russia.

The Indian sugar ind ustry also has a significant stand ing in the global sugar space. Like in
Brazil and Thailand , the sugar sector is highly regulated in India too. Since 1993, the
regulatory environm ent has consid erably eased , but sugar still continues to be listed as an
essential com m odity und er the Essential Com m od ity Act. There are regulations across the
entire value chain, w hich includ es land d em arcation, sugarcane price, sugarcane
procurem ent, sugar prod uction and sale of sugar by m ills in d om estic and international
m arkets.

3
Wid ening the coverage of PAT Schem e – Su gar Sector

Ind ia‟s sugar sector competes w ith Brazil‟s as the largest in the w orld , and is the second
largest agriculture-based ind ustry in Ind ia, after textiles. A m ajority of its prod uction is
d estined for d om estic markets. The num ber of sugar factories in operation in Ind ia d uring
the crushing season 2010-11 w as 527 and the total sugar prod uction w as 24.39 m illion
tonnes. Based on cane crushing, m ill size ranges from 1250 to m ore than 10,000 Tonnes
Crushed per Day (TCD). The average crushing capacity of the sugar mills in Ind ia is 3,650
TCD.

Approxim ately 40% of Ind ia‟s sugar sector is ow ned and run by farm ers through co -
operatives, a situation that is unique to the country, w hile private sugar m ills in Ind ia are the
second largest prod ucers. The co-operative system generally suffers from poor coord ination
and is therefore less efficient than the plantation system m ost com m on in other sugar
prod ucing countries such as Brazil.

1.3 International standing of the subsector

Ind ia is the largest consum er and second largest prod ucer of sugar in the w orld only next to
Brazil. Ind ia accounted for about 14.75% of the total w orld sugar prod uction d uring 2011 -
12. The country-w ise sugar prod uction across the w orld d uring 2011-12 is represented in
Figure 1.3.

Figure 1.3: Cou ntry-w ise su gar p rod u ction across the w orld in p ercentages

1.4 Current/ Future Market Scenario

The 10 largest sugar prod ucing nations represent roughly 78% of the w orld sugar
prod uction. Brazil accounts for alm ost 22% of the w orld prod uction and its share is
increasing, although the country‟s output has w itnessed som e setback since the 2008-2009
crisis. There w as consid erable expansion in sugar prod uction till 1980, w hen w orld sugar
consum ption reached nearly 90 m illion tonnes, i.e. an annual grow th rate of 3.1%. Since

4
1.0 Introd u ction

early 2000 sugar consumption has grow n at a good rate, notably in Asia (+4.9% p.a.), the
Mid d le-East (+4.6% p.a.) and Africa (+4.1% p.a.). The w orld population com prising 7 billion
people, of w hich 4.0 billion are concentrated in Asia, consum es about 165 m illion tonnes of
sugar. The 10 largest sugar consum ing nations consum e roughly tw o-third s of the total
w orld ‟s sugar. White sugar consum ption in d eveloped countries can be consid ered as
saturated m arkets (flat/ low population grow th and m aturity of food m arkets), w hereas
d eveloping countries are considered as grow ing m arkets, particularly in Asia, and , to a
lesser extent in Mid d le-East and Africa.

1.5 Past grow th and future prospects

Sugar p rod uction in India is closely linked to sugarcane prod uction. Sugarcane prod uction
has increased from 279.59 m illion tonnes to 339.17 m illion tonnes from 1997-98 to 2010-11. It
fell to 233.86 million tonnes in 2003-04. An increase in sugarcane prod uction thereafter w as
again follow ed by a d ecline in 2008-09 to 285.09 million tonnes. In India sugar prod uction
follow s a 5-7 year cycle. Sugar prod uction increases over a 3-4 year period , reaches a high,
w hich in turn, results in low er sugar prices. Low er sugar price and increased sugarcane
arrears results in low er sugarcane prod uction for the next 2-3 years. A graphical
representation of the Indian Su gar Cycle is given in Figure 1.5a. The sugarcane and sugar
prod uction trends in India are given in Figure 1.5b.

1.5.1 Dom estic d em and opportu nity

In 2010-11, the d om estic sugar consum ption w as 20.7 m illion tonnes. It is expected that the
d rivers for consum ption i.e. the GDP grow th and population grow th w ill continue to grow
at current rates. Based on the past 10 years' grow th in consum ption and estim ates from
various ind epend ent sources, it is expected that the d om estic sugar consum ption in 2017
w ould be approxim ately 28.5 Million tonnes. (Source KPMG Analysis). Given the high cost
of im ports and the strategic im portance of food security, India w ill need to set its prod uction
targets in excess of its d om estic consum ption. Given the past trend in production cyclicality,
sugar equivalent to 1.5 months of consum ption i.e. an ad ditional 3.5 m illion tonnes of sugar
w ill need to be prod uced by 2017. (Source KPMG Analysis).

1.5.2 International trad e opportu nity

Ind ia has the potential to export to m ajor Ind ian Ocean m arkets, d ue to freight
com petitiveness w ith respect to key com petitors such as Brazil and Thailand . With the EU
exports red ucing by 4.5 m illion tonnes, the w orld price per m etric tonne of sugar is expected
to increase in the range of USD 50 to USD 100. This could potentially m ake exports m ore
viable for Ind ia. H ow ever, d ue to the increasing em ergence of d estination refineries, key
m arkets are im porting a greater share of raw sugar, and Ind ia's com petitiveness for raw
exports is relatively low er currently. Ind ia's com petitiveness is higher in markets, w here the
share of w hite sugar im ports as a percentage of cum ulative im ports is higher. Going
forw ard , Ind ia w ill need to build the capability to prod uce raw sugar and refined sugar of
international quality stand ard s, in ord er to leverage the export opportunity .

The target m arkets are estim ated to im port 10 m illion m etric tonnes of sugar by 2017. In d ia
w ould be able to leverage this opportunity through prod uctivity im provem ents and
alignm ent of cane and sugar prices in the d om estic m arket. Ind ia's com petitiveness can also
be increased by enhancing export infrastructure. Since the current cost structu re of the
Ind ian ind ustry is uncom petitive for exports, in case of a large sugar surplus, the
governm ent could consid er using WTO com pliant subsidies to enable exports w hile creating
stability in the d om estic m arket. The ind ustry could also explore w ays of collectively sharing
losses d ue to exports, if any, since exports w ill lead to low er availability of stocks in the
d om estic m arket, thus benefiting both m ills and farm ers through higher sugar realization.

1.5.3 Fu tu re potential, im pacts and investm ents

The potential, im pacts and investm ents related to the various opportunities in sugar sector
by 2017 are sum m arized below .

(i) Dom estic consum ption

The d om estic consum ption is expected to rise by 5 m illion tonnes of ad d itional sugar. This
w ould require about Rs 6000 crores of investm ent to m eet the d om estic d em and .

(ii) By-prod ucts

Sugar ind ustry provid es good opportunities for prod uction of by-prod ucts such as ethanol,
electricity, etc that w ould help in energy security related issues through green sources. The
estim ated investm ents is about Rs 52,320 crores.

(iii) Prod uctivity im provem ents

It has been estim ated that Ind ia can m eet about 82% of the estim ated increm ent in d om estic
consum ption (4.1 m illion tonne of sugar) by 2017 by im proving prod uctivity through
m arginal acreage increase, farm practices and infrastructure im provem ents.

(iv) Prod uct innovations

There is also significant potential for prod uct innovation i.e. sugar based prod ucts based on
consum er need s. It w ould be necessary for the sugar ind ustry to invest in R&D activities for
this purpose.

1.10 Sugar policy and regulations in India

Ind ia d oes not have a reasonable d egree of pred ictability in its prod uction and trad e policy
w ith respect to sugar. The sector is characterised by controls across the entire value chain of
sugar prod uction and sale, w hich not only ham pers its efficiency but also exacerbates the
cyclicality in sugar and sugarcane prod uction. This characteristic of unpred ictability in
sugarcane prod uction, coupled w ith the controls, d oes not allow the sugar sector to tap its
full potential and thereby ad versely im pacts the interests of stakehold ers (sugarcane
grow ers, sugar m ills and consum ers) across the value-chain. Som e im portant policies in
sugar ind ustry includ e the follow ing:

11
Wid ening the coverage of PAT Schem e – Su gar Sector

i. Trade policy for sugar

Depend ing on m ill-w ise m onthly prod uction and stocks, local prod uction levels and w orld
m arket conditions, quantitative controls on both exports and im ports are com m on in the
sector. This is an avoid able source of uncertainty for the ind ustry.

ii. Regulations relating to by-products

There are several regulatory hurd les w ith respect to the by-prod ucts of the sugar ind ustry.
With respect to the m olasses, these are d ecisions at the state governm ent level related to
fixation of quotas for d ifferent end uses of m olasses, restrictions on m ovem ent (particularly
across state bound aries), etc. With respect to co-generation from bagasse, there are
regulatory and im plementation issues relating to freed om of selling pow er to
consum ers other than the local pow er utility. The state governm ents or their electricity
board s resort to restriction on open access sale by frequent or routine invocation of
statutory provisions m eant to d eal w ith emergencies.

Other policies related to Ind ian sugar ind ustry includ e (i) cane sugar area and bond ing, (ii)
sugarcane pricing, (iii) levy sugar obligation and (iv) regulated release of free sale (non -levy)
sugar).

1.11 Support for bagasse co-generation

The existing capacity of bagasse based cogeneration is 711 MW. The estimated co -generation
potential in Ind ian Sugar Mills is around 6000M W (Source: Industrial Cogeneration India,
V ol.X IX , October, 2010). Over the last d ecad e, bagasse co-generation faced a d ynam ic and
varied set of substantial inform ation , technical, regulatory and financial barriers. Each of the
program m es d esigned to support bagasse co-generation had a role to play in supporting the
711 MW of bagasse co-generation currently installed . H ow ever none of these program m es
w ould have been successful on its ow n. The promotional policies of the Ministry of N ew
and Renew able Energy (MN RE) includ ing capital and interest subsid ies, and a variety of tax
benefits and guid elines to the states to im plem ent the preferential tariffs mad e bagasse co-
generation cost-effective for im plem entation in Ind ia. Various m ultilateral lines of credit
w ere offered through IREDA to som e of the m ills w ho w ere unable to access cred it through
other institutions. H ow ever, till date support program m es have d one little to ad d ress the
unique financial barriers facing the cooperative mills d ue to institutional structure of these
m ills.

1.11.1 MNRE su pport and initiatives

MN RE initiated new co-generation projects for co-operative/ public sector sugar m ills w hich
are based on the Build , Ow n, Operate, Transfer (BOOT) m od el. Tw o BOOT m od el co-
generation projects in co-operative sugar m ills of Maharashtra, 12 co-operative/ public sector
sugar m ills in Tamil N adu are provid ed assistance und er this initiative. The Ministry has
also initiated in 2012, a new schem e for provid ing Central Financial Assistance for boiler up -
grad ation of co-generation project in co-operative sugar m ills. Three co-operative sugar m ills
in Maharashtra w ith an aggregate capacity of 36 MW (20 MW export d uring season) w ere
provid ed financial assistance.

2.0 Energy Performance

2.1 Energy performance at sectoral level

Sugar m ills are energy intensive and are notified as energy intensive ind ustries as per „The
Energy Conservation Act, 2001‟. Energy consumption in sugar m ills d epend s on various
factors such as (1) capacity, (2) steam generation param eters, (3) age of installed equipm ent
and (4) type of equipm ent used . The specific electricity consum ption per tonne of sugar
prod uction varies from 200~500 kWh / tonne of Sugar Prod uced (Source: CMIE Database)
based on the year of prod uction. The average cane crushing in Ind ian m ills in 2010-11 w as
3650 TCD. The average energy consum ption in an Ind ian sugar m ill is about 26~ 40 kWh /
tonne of cane (Source: TERI Energy A udit reports). The total pow er requirem ent in a stand ard
sugar m ill of 3400 TCD crushing capacity is about 4.0 MW. The steam consum ption varies
from 30% to 50% of steam per tonne of cane based on capacity, evaporator vapour bleed ing
arrangem ent and age of equipm ent used .

The cane to bagasse ratio is around 30% in the Indian Sugar m ills and the GCV of bagasse
w ith 50% m oisture is around 2200kCal/ kg. This is equivalent to 0.22 toe/ tonne of bagasse.
Consid ering 239.8 m illion tonnes of cane d uring 2010-11, the bagasse generation is about
71.94 m illion tonnes and the total energy availability is 15.83 toe. Based on the national
average of 136 d ays of cane crushing in 2010-11, sugar m ills w ith a crushing capacity of
3400TCD and above w ill fall und er the category of energy intensive ind ustries. The input
energy (bagasse) available in each of these sugar m ills is 30,000 m etric tonnes of oil
equivalent and above. The number of sugar m ills state-w ise having a crushing capacity of
3400TCD and above is given in Table 2.1. The d etails of the 230 sugar m ills are given in

The sugar m ills in Southeast Asia use low pressure cycle for co-generation plants and m ost
of the mills are inefficient. In som e of the sugar m ills, up to 40 kWh electricity is consum ed
and up to 600 kg of steam is consum ed for m illing every tonne of sugar ca ne. As low as 30
kWh of electricity is prod uced from the bagasse generated from m illing one tonne of sugar
cane. Som e of the sugar m ills are even installed w ith „used ‟ co-generation equipm ent. There
is a huge potential in existing sugar mills to red uce th e steam and electricity requirem ent for
m illing process. In the new co-generation plant, it is possible to prod uce electricity up to
110-125 kWh for every tonne of sugar cane milled .

In the 1960‟s, efficient bagasse co-generation w as pioneered in Mauritius and H aw aii. The
im plem entation of higher pressure (60 bar and higher) and higher tem perature (450 d eg C
and higher) boilers, and correspond ing turbines allow ed the m ore efficient burning of
bagasse w ith exp ort of electricity to the grid . There w as a phenom enal grow th in sugar co-
generation in Ind ia for the past 15 years. Ind ia started im plem enting the 67 bar cycle 15
years ago. Based on the experience gained and lessons learnt from the operation of those
plants, several 87 bar cogeneration systems w ere installed few years before. N ow , the
ind ustry is m oving tow ard s very high pressure system s of up to 110 bar. Few such system s
are alread y in operation and there are m ore than 25 projects und er various stages of
im plem entation. Several d evelopm ents are also taking place on the processing sid e. Due to
several innovative energy efficiency m easures, technology options and improved house
keepings, the steam consum ption has com e d ow n to as low as 350 to 360 kg of steam per
tonne of cane milled .

2.3 Manufacturing process

Sugar occurs in greatest quantities in sugarcane, from w hich it is extracted . The natural
sugar stored in the sugarcane is separated from the plant material through a process

15
Wid ening the coverage of PAT Schem e – Su gar Sector

1. Juice Extraction
The juice extraction plant consists of cane handling, cane preparation and m illing sections.

a) Cane handling
Cane, brought to the m ill, is m echanically unloaded by a grab type attachm ent. A truck
tippler is som etim es provid ed to unload cane, facilitating load ing of sugar cane to cane
carrier.

b) Cane preparation
The sugarcane is levelled in the leveller before it is fed to the cutter. The cutter shred s the
cane to sm aller sizes and prepares it for the fibrizer w here the cane is converted to a pulp -
like m ass.

Juice extraction from the prepared cane is d one by tw o types of processes. About 95~97% o f
the sugar factories follow m illing process and 3~5% of the sugar factories follow d iffusion
process.

c) M illing
The prepared cane is passed through a m illing tand em com posed of four to six three-roller
m ills. The juice is extracted from the cane by squ eezing und er high pressure in these rollers.
Extraction is m axim ised by leaching the d isintegrated exposed cane w ith w eak juice and
m ake-up w ater in a counter current system . The fibrous m atter or bagasse', w hich is left after
m illing, is used as a fuel for steam generation.

d) Diffusion
Diffusion process is based on a system atic counter current w ashing of the cane or bagasse by
m eans of im bibition w ater. Water is ad d ed at the d ischarge end of the conveyor and
percolates through the bed of bagasse and the perforated slats of the conveyor. The w ater
d issolves the sugar in the bagasse and the thin juice thus form ed is collected in a hopper.
This juice is m oved forw ard one stage by pum ping and the process is repeated until the juice
reaches maxim um concentration at the feed end of the diffuser. The diffuser m ay be
cond itioned either for single-flow or for parallel-flow s juice circulation.

2. Juice clarification
The purification of juice involves (a) juice heating (b) sulphitation (c) clarification and (d )
filtration.
The m ixed juice from the m ills is heated in raw juice heater(s). The heated juice is treated
w ith chem icals to precipitate various d issolved impurities in the m ixed juice. The
precipitated im purities are separated to obtain clear sparkling juice in clarifiers. The clear
juice is again heated to obtain a tem perature of about 105 0C.

3. Evaporation
The juice is concentrated from 15 Brix to around 60 Brix in a m ultiple-effect evaporator. The
vapours are bled from the evaporators for juice heating in various heat exchangers and for
boiling of m assecuite (a m ixture of m olten liquid and crystals) in vacuum pans. This is the
m ajor steam consum ing section of the plant.

16
Energy Perform ance

4. Crystallisation
Crystallisation is an im portant unit operation, w hich in sugar ind ustry is know n as Pan
boiling. A m ajor part of the crystallization process is d one in m ost of the sugar m ills in batch
type vacuum pans. The m assecuite is then transferred to crystallizers w here the process is
com pleted by cooling the m ass und er stirred condition.

5. Centrifuging
The m assecuite from the vacuum pans is sent to the centrifuges, w here the sugar crystals are
separated from the m olasses. These centrifugal machines can be batch type or continuous
type. There are separate centrifugal m achines for `A' type, `B' type and `C' type m assecuites.
The m olasses separated out from this section is a useful by -prod uct, w hich is an excellent
raw m aterial for d istilleries.

6. D rying, grading and packing

The m oist crystals obtained from centrifugal m achines norm ally contain about 15-20%
surface m oisture. They are d ried in traditional d ryers, grad ed accord ing to crystal sizes and
then packed in bags.

2.3.2 By-prod u cts

The m ain by-prod ucts from any su gar ind ustry are (i) bagasse, (ii) m olasses and (iii) filter
cake. The d etails are given below .

i. Bagasse
Bagasse is an im portant by-prod uct of sugar. It is used as a m ajor substitute raw m aterial in
the paper and pulp ind ustry, replacing w ood and bam boo th us red ucing deforestation.
Presently, alm ost all the sugar m ills utilize this bagasse as an in -house fuel in boilers for
steam generation. A num ber of m ills are now planning to utilise bagasse efficiently in high -
pressure boilers for co-generating electricity for export to the grid / neighbouring units.

ii. M olasses
Molasses, the other im portant by-prod uct, is a storehouse of organic chemicals. Ind ustrial
alcohol is prod uced from m olasses, w hich in turn can be used to m anufacture chem icals like
ethyl benzene, lactic acid, tartaric acid , citric acid , d iethyl phthalate, etc. Ind ustrial alcohol
can be used as a fuel extend er as a substitute to the scarce petroleum products.

iii. Filter cake

When cane juice is clarified and filtered , the resulting cake is know n as filt er m ud or filter
cake. It contains m ost of the colloid al m atter precipitated d uring clarification and has
around 63% organic m atter. This cake is of great m anur e value and is m ostly taken by
grow ers using their ow n transport, after d elivering cane to the factory, for use in their field s.

2.3.3 Cogeneration in sugar m ills

The sugar ind ustry by its inherent nature can generate surplus energy in contrast to other
ind ustries, w hich are only consum ers of energy. With liberalization and increased
com petition, the generation and selling of excess pow er to electricity board s, offers an
excellent source of revenue generation to the sugar m ills. This is referred to as com m ercial
co-generation and has been only m arginally tapped in our country. The sugar m ills have

17
Wid ening the coverage of PAT Schem e – Su gar Sector

been ad opting co-generation right from the beginning. H ow ever, the co-generation has been
restricted to generating pow er and steam only to m eet the operational requirem ents of the
plant. Only in recent years, w ith an increasing pow er d em and and shortage, com m ercial co-
generation has becom e attractive, both from the state utility and the sugar m ill point of view .
The sugar m ills d erive ad d itional revenue by selling pow er to the grid , w hile the state is able
to m arginally red uce the 'd em and -supply' gap, w ith red uced investments.

2.3.4 Distillery in su gar m ills

An associated d istillery m ay em ploy batch or continuous ferm entation, follow ed by
d istillation, to prod uce ethanol w ith a purity of 95%. This ethanol can be used in other
ind ustries or further processed and blend ed w ith gasoline. Waste from the d istillation
process is know n as vinasse or spent w ash. Anaerobic d igestion of this w aste is used to
prod uce biogas, w hich can be utilized for the prod uction of boiler fu el for the d istillery or to
fuel com bined heat and pow er engines. The remaining w aste can be returned to agricultural
field s and / or used in the com posting of organic solid s em anating from processing.

2.4 Technological movements

Various technologies for energy efficiency im provem ent are discussed briefly. Many of these
technologies are alread y in use in Ind ia w hile some are in the d evelopm ent phase or not yet
com m ercialized in Ind ia. Besid es these technologies, one im portant step that the Ind ian
sugar m ills can ad opt is to prod uce sm aller sized sugar instead of bold er sugar grains. This
is because the prod uction of bold er grain sugar lead s to an increased consum ption of 2 to 3%
energy by the ind ustry. Som e of the technological m ovem ents that are im plem ented / can be
im plem ented are listed below :
 Capacity enhancem ent
 Ad option to co-generation to m eet both steam and pow er d em and
 Installation of electrical m ill d rive based sugar extraction in place of steam m ill d rives
 Changing the evaporator configuration to (DEVC + Quad to Quintuple/ quad ruple
m od e)
 Mod ification in vapour bleed ing arrangem ent system (For plants using quintuple
effect system)
 H ot cond ensate m anagem ent: Using hot cond ensate from 2nd bod y of m ultiple effect
evaporators for superheated w ash w ater heating instead of exhaust steam or vapour
bled from m ultiple effect evaporator bod ies

2.5 Capacity utilisation

The capacity utilisation of the sugar m ills plays a m ajor role in the overall energy
consum ption of the plant. During the start and end of crushing seasons, w hen cane
availability is less than requirem ent, the sugar plant energy consum ption w ill be m uch
higher com pared to full capacity operation. Failure of equipm ent, d uring the season, also
forces the plants to be operated at low er capacity till the m aintenance of equipm ent is
com pleted and brought back to line. Und er capacity utilisation of plant and over sizing of
equipm ent consid ering future exp ansion also lead s to higher energy consum ption. The
average capacity utilization of the sugar factories in India d uring 2010-11 w as 92%.

2.6 Major energy consuming areas

The section w ise electrical energy consum ption and steam consum ption in sugar m ill is
given in Table 2.6a and Table 2.6b respectively. The m ajor user areas of steam are m ultiple

2.7 Energy saving potential

2.7.1 Scope for im proving energy efficiency
Analysis of the energy consum ption pattern in the sugar m ills reveals that there exists a
significant scope for im proving the energy efficiency in the Ind ian sugar ind ustry. The m ajor
reason for the high energy consum ption in the industry is the presence of a large num ber of
old , sm all capacity sugar m ills w hich have not invested m uch over the years in m od ernizing

Wid ening the coverage of PAT Schem e – Su gar Sector

or upgrad ing their process equipm ent. The period ic expansion of the plant and installation
of new equipm ent as per the plant expansion has led to increased use of many num bers of
sm all capacity equipm ent w hich can be replaced w ith m inim um num ber of higher capacity
equipm ent to im prove energy efficiency and reduce m aintenance cost. By incorporating the
latest energy efficient process equipment mentioned in section 3.4 (technological
m ovem ents) around 20% of electrical energy consum ption and 25% steam consum ption can
be red uced in the sugar m ills.

2.7.2 Scope for co-generation potential

The all-Ind ia potential of bagasse-based cogeneration w ith the im plem entation of extra high
pressure (87 kg/ cm 2 or 110 kg/ cm 2)/ tem perature (515 or 540 d eg C) configuration, is
around 6,000 MW. For the co-generation opportunity, in 2017, there is a total exportable
pow er potential of approxim ately 9,700 MW (KPMG analysis- 2017 forecast). This can fulfill
alm ost 6% of the ad d itional pow er requirem ent of 128 GW by 2017. As of 31 March 2010,
only 1,344 MW (134 projects) of capacity have been com m issioned , w hile another 530MW of
capacity (39 projects) are und er construction. This m eans that only 31% of the potential has
been actually achieved . Table 2.7.2 gives the state-w ise potential for bagasse based co-
generation projects.

3.0 Analysis of energy consumption data

3.1 Energy consumption in sugar mills

The energy requirem ents in a sugar m ill are in the form of steam for process heating/ turbo
d rives and electricity for running various d rives. The sugar ind ustry has the unique
ad vantage of utilizing a captive fuel (bagasse), to m eet its energy requirements. H ow ever,
d epend ing upon factors like fibre content in the cane, quantity of juice, type of clarification
process and evaporation effects, type of prim e m overs (steam d riven or electric d riven) etc.,
som e sugar m ills prod uce a sm all quantity of surplus bagasse w hile others are d eficient by a
sm all quantity. The sugar m ills d epend , in a very lim ited w ay, on external fuels like fuel oil,
LSH , coal etc., to supplem ent their energy requirem ents. Som e sugar mills d uring the season
can prod uce a m arginal surplus pow er w hile others w ould be d eficient in pow er by a sm all
m argin and hence the d epend ence on grid pow er is m inim al.

3.1.2 Steam consum ption in su gar mills

Som e im portant features of steam consum ption in sugar m ills are given below .
 Steam consum ption is about 30 to 50% on cane (i.e., 300kg to 500kg per tonne of cane

 Less num ber of vapour bleed ing stages results in less steam econom y
 Lot of H P steam is also used for process viz. sulphur burner, pan w ashing, sugar

3.3 Possible energy efficiency measures in sugar industry

Sugar m ills cannot control the energy prices, Governm ent policies and the Global econom y.
But they can im prove the w ay they m anage their energy. Im proved energy perform ance can
provid e rapid benefits for the ind ustry by m aximizing the use of energy sources and energy
related assets, thus red ucing both energy cost and consum ption. Various technologies for
energy efficiency im provem ent are discussed briefly. Many of these technologies are alread y
in use in Ind ia w hile some are in the d evelopm ent phase or not yet com m ercialized in India.
Besid es these technologies, one im portant step that the Ind ian sugar mills can ad opt is to
prod uce sm aller sized sugar instead of bold er sugar grains. This is because the prod uction of
bold er grain sugar lead s to an increased consum ption of 2 to 3% energy by the ind ustry.

3.3.1 Im proved reliability and econom ics of steam & pow er generating
systems w ith film form ing polyam ines
Corrosion and scaling in boilers and turbines continue to cause heat insulating d eposits in
boilers resulting in failures, loss of efficiency, frequent cleaning and increased cost of
operations. A “film barrier approach" has been gaining increasing acceptance. It utilizes the
film form ing properties of aliphatic am ines on d ivalent w et m etal surfaces provid ing m uch
superior protection to the m etal surfaces in boilers and turbines against corrosion scaling
and carryover.

3.3.2 Direct prod uction of w hite su gar in a cane su gar mill

White sugar can be d irectly prod uced from clarified juice through an econom ical process.
Juice from a cane sugar m ill, or sugar beet juice, is first contacted w ith hyd rogen peroxid e,
before passing through granular activated carbon. The juice is then passed through cationic
and anionic resins to remove inorganic com pounds, colorants, and other im purities. Then
the juice m ay be concentrated and sugar crystallized . White sugar is produced d irectly,

24
Analysis of Energy Consu m p tion Data

w ithout the need for interm ed iate raw sugar crystallization and the process is thereby
econom ical.

3.3.3 Su garcane w aste conversion into char

The Appropriate Rural Technology Institute (ARTI) in Pune has d eveloped a charring
process for converting sugarcane trash into high value char. Char obtained by this process
can be converted into briqu ettes easily by a variety of w ell-established briquetting m ethod s.
The kiln has a conversion efficiency of 30 per cent and operates as a continuous -batch
process.

3.3.4 Qu intu ple 3rd effect vapou r for su gar m elting

In a m ultiple effect evaporator, vapour bleed ing in the later bod ies w ill bring steam
econom y. But extensive use of this vapour is presently lim ited to first tw o bod ies d ue to low
tem perature of vapours and high scaling patterns in later bod ies. Extensive use of vapour of
the third bod y in a quintuple effect evaporator can be planned . With an increase in pressure
of the exhaust steam used at the first bod y of evaporator, the pressure cond itions of
ind ivid ual bodies changes to higher sid e m atching w ith the pressures of the quad ruple
effect. Steam saving upto 3.5% is achieved through extensive use of vapour from the third
bod y by converting the evaporator system into quintuple from quad ruple. Use of this
system w ould help in red ucing the steam consum ption.

3.3.5 Cond ensate flashing system

When juice is concentrated by separating w ater content in m ultiple effect evaporation, the
vapour cond ensate takes aw ay heat utilized for heating, often into the d rain. As w as the case
of red ucing pressure in bod ies of m ultiple effect evaporators in sequence, it is proper to use
flash heat in hotter vapour cond ensates, in subsequent bod ies by circulating the cond ensate
sequentially.

3.3.6 Film type su lphu r bu rner

Sugar juice clarification (purification) process requires sulphur d ioxid e as a clar ification and
bleaching agent. In Ind ian factories, it is prod uced from expensive (im ported ) sulphur in the
conventional tray type batch burners, w hich are inefficient resulting in high processing cost,
poor clarification and poor sugar quality. The new "film type sulphur burner" prod uces SO2
w ith consistent quality, high efficiency, low consum ption and w ell regulated operation
m ad e possible by the new 'film burning' concept and requisite autom ation. The film type
sulphur burner technology has been ad opted in m ore than 64 sugar factories all over Ind ia.
Operation of the burner is controlled in accord ance w ith process d emand s i.e. SO2 quantity
and quality, sulphur feed rate etc. through use of instrum entation and control system etc.

3.3.7 Bagasse d rier

Bagasse Drier is a novel concept of d rying bagasse as w ell as controlling air pollution. It is a
unique d evice w herein the hot flue gases are m ixed w ith the w et bagasse from m ills. This
w et bagasse gets d ried up and accum ulates all the ash and unburnt carbon w ith it. The
system w ould help in improving the efficiency and in pollution control.

3.3.8 Planetary gearbox for crystalliser

Planetary gearbox is energy efficient, cost effective com pact alternative to the conventional
d rive com prising gear trains and also hyd raulic drive. Som e plants have successfully
replaced the existing w orm w heel red uction system w ith the planetary gearbox arrangem ent
for all the crystallizers.

3.3.9 Ad vanced bagasse based co-generation

Sugar m ills em ploy co-generation system having 480 d eg C and 65 bar (atm ). With
technological advancement, som e sugar mills in Ind ia have im plem ented the ad vanced co-
generation system of 515 d eg C and 105 bar (atm ) pressure for increasing energy efficiency
and financial profitability.

3.3.10 Mechanical Vapou r Com pression (MVR) technology to recover

low -pressu re w aste steam
The need for red ucing energy costs has led to m ulti-effect plants, then to therm al vapour
com pression and finally to the use of m echanical vapours com pression system s. In
m echanical vapour compression, positive displacem ent com pressions or m ulti-stage
centrifugal com pressors are generally used to raise the pressure and tem perature of the
generated vapours. Since m echanical com pressors d o not require any m otive steam , all
vapours can be com pressed to elevated pressure and tem perature, elim inating the need for a
subsequent recovery system . The energy supplied to the com pressor constitutes the
ad d itional energy input to the vapours. After the com pression of the vapour and its
subsequent cond ensation , through transfer of heat to process fluid , the hot cond ensate
leaves the system , w hich can be used as feed w ater/ liquid for boilers.

3.3.11 Mill Drives

DC m ill d rives are used in m ost sugar m ills in India to d rive the m illing tand em w ith four to
five 500-1000 H P d rives. This is in vogue in m ost of the plants now , w ith conversion of
turbo-steam d rive to electrical d rive w ith co-generation of pow er for export being popular.
H ow ever, the new d evelopm ent of using AC d rive instead of DC d rive has the follow ing
ad vantages. The ad vantages includ e the follow ing:
 Efficiency of AC m otor is higher than DC m otor
 Low m aintenance cost than DC m otor
 Less harm onics than DC m otor
 Overall pow er saving of 3-5% is possible w ith AC d rive for m illing tand em in place of
DC d rives

3.3.12 Vertical continu ou s vacu u m pan for m assecu ite boiling

The use of batch type vacuum pans in m ost of the m ills results in consid erable fluctuations
of steam consum ption and irregular sugar quality. It results in variation in the syrup brix.
The use of fully auto controlled continuous pan helps in m aintaining a stead y consum ption
of vapours thus elim inating the problem s associated w ith fluctuating vapour flow s. This
ensures the uniform functioning of the evaporator station, an d also boiler steam generation.

3.3.13 Low pressure extraction (LPE) system

The new LPE system is an efficient alternative to conventional method s of juice extraction,
w hich utilizes com bination of solid -liquid extraction and conventional milling technology at
low hyd raulic pressures. The system uses perforated rollers in m od ules of 2. A total of eight

26
Analysis of Energy Consu m p tion Data

m od ules (16 rollers) w ere used d uring the trial runs. H yd raulic pressure of 110 bar is used .
Due to perforations in the rollers, the extracted juice is quickly d rained out. Re-absorption of
juice is negligible. The system is d riven by electric m otors and operation is autom atically
controlled.

3.3.14 Mem brane filtration for su gar manufactu ring

Mem brane filtration is the process for prod uction of sulphur free, refined quality sugar
w ithout going through conventional refining. In this process, high tem perature tolerant
polym eric m em brane mod ules are em ployed for sugarcane juice clarification for prod uction
of high quality sugar. These m em brane m od ules are capable of w ithstand ing continuous
exposure to hot juice w ithout any visible signs of d eterioration.

3.3.15 H igh pressure co-generation system

Apart from im proving the end use efficiency in the plants, the other m ost prom ising en ergy
conservation measure for the ind ustry is to install extra high pressure (87 kg/ cm 2 or 110
kg/ cm 2)/ tem perature (515 or 540 d eg C) configuration co-generation system s.

3.4 Conclusions
The sugar ind ustry is one of the largest energy users am ong ind ustry sector using bagasse
for m eeting both therm al energy and electricity requirem ents. Out of the 527 operating sugar
m ills in Ind ia, about 99 sugar m ills have an installed capacity of 5000 TCD and above. These
sugar m ills can be brought und er tw o broad categories viz. (1) sugar m ills w ith steam d riven
m ills and (2) sugar mills w ith electrical m otor d riven m ills. The sugar m ills above 5000TCD
capacity may be taken up for d etailed stud y in the first phase. The estim ated annual energy
consum ption of these sugar m ills vary betw een 45,000 toe per year to 90,000 toe per year.
The estim ation of annual energy consum ption w as based on sugar recovery and average
crushing period of sugar m ills in Ind ia. A large num ber of these units have ad opted
cogeneration route to m eet their overall energy requirem ents. As per the collected
inform ation and discussions w ith stakehold ers d uring the sectoral w orkshop, there exists a
significant energy saving potential of about 20% in sugar ind ustries. Therefore it is
suggested that these 99 sugar m ills (w hich operate either separately or as a group) m ay be
consid ered as DCs und er the PAT scheme w ith a threshold limit of 30,000 toe as m inim um
annual energy consum ption per plant (figure 3.4).
