Water and Wastewater treatment
Water from fresh water sources like rivers, canals, lakes, springs, tube well etc. is pretreated in a water treatment plant of a suitable configuration.
- Pretreatment involves
- Classification
- Filtration
- Chlorination
- Ozonation
- Softening
- Demineralization
- Revers Osmosis etc
Depending on the quality of water required in the process a suitable combination of above processes is selected.
Water is used in steam boiler, fermentation, cooling tower, make-up water, floor washing, Cip of equipments etc.
K-Super technology provided by KBK helps treat the naturally available inconsistent quality water by making it suitable for process and other critical applications.
Major water consumer in distillery is fermentation process wherein water is used for dilution.
The Spentwash received from primary column (1st column) of distillation section is taken to wastewater treatment plant for suitable reuse & recycle. Part of the spentwash generated in K-Super process is also recycled back to the fermentation.
K-Super water management system combines the following unit process for maximizing recycle & minimizing low water consumption.
- Recycle to fermentation
- Decantation, solids removal and reuse
- Evaporation for 1 : 2.5 Product : Waste water ratio
- Effluent treatment plant
- Biomethanation
- Zero Liquid discharge. ( ZLD) etc
