INTRODUCTION:
Sugar industry is
one of the few industries which have contributed much to the growth of rural
economy. Further interestingly, the
sugar industries are utilizing the rural resourced and struggled hard to meet
the large demand of sugar within and to meet the increasing energy needs of the
country.
Sugar industry is
considered as Agro-based industry hence the location of such industries is always
at rural areas. The sugar industry
supports 50 million farmers and their families besides direct employment to the
tune of millions of people.
In earlier days the
manufacturing process of sugar unit are considered as ‘Part time’ industries
and not given much importance to this industry as comparing to others. But at the present scenario of sugar industry
have been changed. It recognize as one
of the most important media in uplifting the socio-economic structure of rural
economy. Now sugar industries are
contributing to the nation monthly by catering the needs of sugar demand but
its contributions in the field of manufacturing electricity by biogases based
Co-gen unit, Distilleries, ethanol and Bio-fertilizers units by using its
by-products.
In the light of
above, the study of organisation structure of sugar industry with special
reference to Naranja Sahakari Sakkare
Karkhane has been taken up for In-plant Training.
Background and
inception of the company:
The Naranja
Sahakari sakkare karkhane Ltd
is a co-operative venture registered on
27th April 1982 under the Karnataka co-operative society’s act 1959 vide
Reg.No.DSK:REG-5/82c-83 with an objective to facilitate farmers to improve
their socio-economic conditions. The Govt. of India have issued Letter of
Intent vide No. Li: 193(1989) dated 20th march 1989. The crushing
capacity of the sugar plant is 2500 TCD & co-generation unit of 14 Mw. The
plant is located at G.N. Nagar Imampur village, 14 km away from Bidar town.
The location of the factory is very ideal in terms
of the following:
An availability of
sufficient raw material: the area of operation of the factory covers the entire
Bidar district. The cane availability within the radius of 15-20 km is much and
saves transportation cost of cane from field to factory besides saves the time.
·
Water Sources:
River Manjra, canals, tanks, wells & borewells are providing required
quantum of water for growing cane in the reserved area of the factory which
ensures the availability of the cane without any interruption.
·
The required
quantum of water to run the factory and for local consumption for employee’s
colonies is met by river Manjra and bore wells.
The activities of
the factory were confined only to the
development of civil works, landscaping and building etc since 1982 to 2000.The
project was slatted for 18 years due to want of leadership. The license of the
factory was in the verge of cancellation. In such crucial juncture, honourable
Sri Gurupadappa Nagamarapalli, a bold leader and a progressive farmer and the
leader of the mass took the management of the company into his hands. With the
association of like minded people he has mobilized required resources like
money, material and man power within a short span of 18 months and started the
commercial production in 2002.
Shri.Gurupadappa
Nagmarpalli is a veteran co-operator, social worker & a progressive farmer.
Served as a Minister of Forest twice in Govt.of Karnataka, serving as a
Chairman, District Central Co-operative Bank Bidar, Director Karnataka State
Co-operative Apex Bank Ltd. Bangalore and KSCMF
Ltd, Bangalore
Nature of
business carried:
§
SUGAR
PRODUCTION:
The crushing
capacity of the sugar plant is 2500 Tones Crushed per day (T.C.D) and producing
export quality white crystal sugar using the latest technology in the country.
The factory is one of the most advanced plants by its modern technicalities.
Robust and reliable equipment of latest design, high efficiency, and low power
consumption have been installed. Factory runs continuously for 6-7 months in a
year.
Due to abundant cane
availability in the area of operation, a minimum duration of season of 6 to 7
months is assured i.e., to say about 6 lakh tones of sugarcane will be crushed
during the season and sugar production will be around 7 lakh quintals. When
this is done, the turnover of the company right from beginning would be Rs.120
crores and after meeting all the obligations, there will be sizable surplus per
year.
v
POWER GENERATION:
The company has
established 14 MW co-gen project to generate power using non conventional
energy fuel i.e., biogases which is a by-product coming out of sugarcane and
available in plenty at the location with the help of high pressure boilers and
turbines. At present 8 MW electricity is being generated. Out of 8 MW, 4.5 MW
will be used for captive consumption and balance of 3.5 MW will be exported to
K.P.T.C.L at fixed rates as per P.P.A. The additional revenue of Rs. 4 crores
will be generated by power export.

PROCESS
Brief Description
of Manufacturing Process of Sugar:
Cane from the fields
is weighed and put into trucks after grading the cane by manually. Then the
graded cane is dumped by tilting mechanism into cane carrier. Cane is passed
through various preparatory devices like leveler, cutter, and shedder for
preparation of cane.
The prepared cane is
fed onto milling tandem in which juice is extracted and biogases is sent as
fuel for boiler. The juice is screened
and weighed then heated in juice heaters up to 65 degrees Celsius. Then to the
juice, milk of lime and SO2 gas is added and again heated in juice heaters up
to 105 degree Celsius. Then the juice is
fed to clarifier where juice and mud thus separated is sent to filter station
for separation of mud.
The separated mud is
sent to bio earth yard for the manufacture of bio-fertilizer. The supernatant
clear juice is fed to Evaporators for concentration.
The concentrated
juice is known as syrup which is clarified in syrup clarification system and is
then sent to suspiration. The sulphited syrup is sent to Pan Floor for
crystallization process.
The N.S.S.K Ltd. is
following three and half massecuite boiling system in pan boiling for
crystallization stage. The massecuites are cured in high-speed centrifugals.
Sugar and molasses are separated.
Sugar
is dried and weighed and sent to godown for storage. Molasses is sent to
storage tanks.
