Hyderabad: TATA Projects Limited, one of India’s fastest-growing and most admired infrastructure companies, has received multiple mega orders in the Oil & Gas refinery sector with combined value totaling more than INR 6,000 crores from HPCL Rajasthan Refinery Ltd (HRRL) and Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL).
BPCL’s order is for its 2G Bio Ethanol Project at Bargarh, Odisha with a proposed production capacity of this plant at 100 KL per day of second-generation Ethanol. This project is significant since the Government of India is encouraging the production of cellulosic ethanol from agricultural residues to provide additional sources of remuneration to farmers. It will assist in addressing growing environmental concerns and supporting the Ethanol Blended Petrol (EBP) program. In addition to reducing environmental pollution due to the burning of agricultural waste – the project will enhance the nation’s energy security.
Once complete, this BPCL 2G Bio Ethanol Project will produce fuel-grade ethanol meeting specifications as per IS 15464:2004, using domestic agro-based lingo-cellulosic feedstock. Rice straw shall be the design feedstock while Maize stalk will be the check case.
Mr. Vinayak Deshpande, Managing Director – TATA Projects Ltd, said, “As a leading construction & technology company, we have a specialised division that executes construction of environmentally beneficial and challenging projects.
