Bagasse Cogeneration Plant
Bagasse is the leftover of the sugarcane after crushing, And is burnt as a fuel in the boiler of sugar mill. Bagasse cogeneration has been practiced in sugar mills since long to meet sugar mills own energy needs. However, supplying excess electricity to the grid has gained momentum worldwide in last one decade. It offers several advantages such as near – zero fuel cost, increased viability of sugar mills, energy security, fuel diversity, reduced transmission and distribution losses and carbon emission reduction.
Today, the thrust is on the most economic use of power. Captive power generation is a value added dimension for sugar mills. A sugar plant has inherent capacity to generate much more power than its own requirement. SS Engineers have the expertise to design sugar plants with co-generation. We design sugar plants with the most economic power consumption, leaving a substantial surplus from the plant. This surplus power is in-turn supplied to the National Grid.
Till date SS Engineers has supplied and have under commissioning 30 Nos.co-generation plants from 6 MW to 35MW.
