• Feedstock flexibility to process multiple feedstock based on seasonality
• Debottlenecking for smooth plant operations

Modernization of an existing ethanol plant goes through a systematic process of technical assessment of current operations to decide the course correction. Praj experts, in consultation with various plant personnel, collect a set of operational parameters to benchmark with the global standards. Such assessments involve rigorous steps -

• Consultation with the plant operation and maintenance staff
• Analysis of operating data, log sheets, field tests, construction documents of the equipment, visual inspection etc
• Creation of a virtual process model using various first principle simulators such as Chemcad and Aspen
• Simulation exercise for different process conditions and scenarios
• Financial assessment of various outputs
