Achievements

  • The Company was the initiator ofhigh-pressure co-gen concepts in the sugar industry. This concept uses the available excess bagasse and exports additional power to the government grid.
  • RajshreeSugars is the first sugar mill in India to introduce 110 ata operating pressure boilers in the industry co-generation. This helps to achieve higher boiler efficiency.
  • RSCL has complete sugar mill automation with centralised DCS. The sugar mill complex can be operated from a single control room.
  • The company established modified incineration technology for the complete burning of concentrated spent wash economically.
  • The new green field distillery factory(Unit-3) operates with complete re-cycling of water generated from the sugar cane process with zero percentage effluent disposal.
  • The company also pioneered the SAP module for cane management system which helps to computerize the whole system of cane indenting, weighing and payment process.
  • RajshreeSugars was the first to introduce organic compositing using ‘Solid State Fermentation’ technology.
  • RSCL Green Plus organic manure and Bio-products are certified as ‘Organic’ by SKAL International, Netherlands as they are eco-friendly and conform to the European standards for pesticide residues and heavy metals.
  • RSCL’s R&D unit is recognized by the Department of Scientific & Industrial Research (DSIR), Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India.
  • RSCL was awarded the ‘Best Sugar Factory for Sugar Cane Development’ for the years 2000-01 and 2001-02 by the South Indian Sugar and Sugarcane Technologists Association (SISSTA).
  • RSCL was awarded the ‘Best Sugar Factory Performance Award’ for the year 2003-04 and 2004-05 by South Indian Sugar and Sugarcane Technologists Association (SISSTA).
  • RSCL was awarded ‘Best Co-generation Award’ for the season 2011-12 by South Indian Sugar and Sugarcane Technologists Association (SISSTA).
  • RSCL was the first sugar factory in India to be registered with UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) as a Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Project under the Kyoto Protocol and generate carbon credits by reducing Green House Gas (GHG) emissions from its co-generation plant.
  • RSCL was the first sugar factory to pioneer the use of air-cooled condensers instead of water-cooled condensers in its co-generation plant to reduce water consumption by 86%.
  • RSCL recycles water naturally available in sugarcane juice to meet the entire sugar processing requirement in its most recently established sugar factory.
  • It recycles 1200m3 of water per day in the distillery unit, reducing 70% of water consumption in the alcohol manufacturing process.
  • RSCL was the first sugar factory to pioneer the use of high pressure boiler systems up to 110 Kg/cm2 to maximise the power to fuel ratio in co-generation plants.
  • RSCL was the first sugar factory to pioneer bio-composting as a zero pollution solution to treat effluent discharge from a distillery by combining it with press mud from a sugar factory in an anaerobic process, returning micro-nutrient rich organic manure to the soil for sustainable agriculture.
