ACTIVATED A CHEAPEST ALTERNATIVE OF FERTILIZERS COMBO FOR HIGH RECOVERY OF ETHANOL FROM MOLASSES IRON OXIDE BY- DR. ANIL KUMAR GUPTA ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY D.A.V COLLEGE,KANPUR
FERMENTATION YEAST (Without energy) (Respiration without Oxygen) Nutrients Yeast with 24 Kcals Energy Decomposition Sugar Ethanol Examples of Nutrients:- 1) Fertilizers : Urea, DAP, ZnSO4, MgSO4 2) Iron Oxide : Ferrous Oxide , Ferric oxide
ACTIVATED IRON OXIDE Ferrous Oxide (Fe2O2) Activator Ferric Oxide (Fe2O3) Oxalic acid from fermented wash Ferri-Oxalate [ Fe2(C2O4)3] Photosenstive Absorbs photons from fermented wash Ferro-Oxalate [ Fe2(C2O4)2] Photons Yeast with energy more than 24 Kcals Decompose More sugar More Ethanol (High Recovery) ACTIVATOR : GALLIONELA BACTERIA
PROBLEM VALIDATION MARKET POTENTIAL (Rs) 250 Tons Molasses (Fertilizers) (Activated iron Oxide) 60,000 ltr Ethanol Ethanol 61,250 ltr Increase in Yield : 61,250 60,000 = 1250 ltr Increase in Income : 1250 80Rs = 100000/day =4.16%
BENEFITS India is endowed with Iron Oxide dust as a natural wealth. Iron Oxide is cheaper, Whereas Urea is Rs 15000/ton. 0.5% Increase in recovery of Ethanol. Increase in income Rs1,00,000/day in a single Distillery.

ADVANTAGE TO COUNTRY SAVING IN TERM OF UREA / SESSION Price of Urea $227/1000 Kg Price of 1875 Kg Urea = $425.625 There are 200 Distilleries in India , which implies $425.625 200 = $85,125 If they run for 150 days, $85,125 150 = $12768750 = U.S.D 12.76 million. Total Income generated / session 100000 200 = 20000000 Rs 20000000 150 = 3000000000 = 50 Million U.S.D
