1 Biofuels in India : Role of Research and Development Alok Adholeya, The Energy and Resources Institute,New Delhi, India 7/14/ Drivers Energy security Employment needs Ecological restoration Decentralized energy needs 7/14/
2 Energy Consumption Indian Scenario 5 th largest energy consumer Per capita energy requirement is lowest India imported 90 MT of crude oil which is 70% of its requirement By 2030 estimated consumption 5.6 m barrels/day 95% to be met from import 7/14/ Prospect of Biodiesel in India A study points out that that out of India 175 million hectares of wastelands if 30 million hectares can be brought under the cultivation of high-yielding treeborne oilseeds such as Jatropha, Mahua and Pongamia could make significant contribution towards Energy security Apart from this it can also provide direct employment to around 15 million people. 7/14/
3 India : Diesel demand & Biodiesel projections Year High-speed diesel demand (million tones) Bio-diesel at 5% blend (million tonnes) Bio-diesel at 10% blend (million tonnes) Bio-diesel at 20% blend (million tonnes) Source : Planning Commission 7/14/ Biofuel status 40% of total energy requirement, especially in rural households, is met by non-commercial energy sources such as fuel wood, crop residue and animal waste. Ethanol production of India is ranked 4th largest in the world. However, the production capacity of India was much more than its actual production. With uses in different segments, ethanol demand is increasing in India. 7/14/
4 Rural energy demand Total energy requirement of Agriculture + rural household sector = Million kwh Biodiesel generation from 40 Mha land (Best case scenario) = Million Tonnes oil= kwh Biodiesel generation from 4 Mha land (Present scenario) = 3.9 Million Tonnes oil = 1180 Million Kwh 7/14/ Topics of Discussion National innovation systems Advantages of new technologies and its impact on climate change Role of modern biotechnology 7/14/
5 National innovation system and policies Program on inventorization of potential feedstock Lignocellulosic(From various feedstock's from agriculture) conversion to ethanol Field evaluation trials Biotechnological interventions Indigenous process optimization and hardware development 7/14/ Policy Initiatives for Biofuel sector in India 5% Ethanol Blending mandatory is 9 States and 4 Union Territories w.e.f. Jan Biodiesel Purchase Policy announced on 9 th Oct., 2005 Biodiesel Standards and Specifications prepared (BIS 15607) Setting up of an independent National Biofuel Board under consideration 7/14/

8 Feedstock: Various sugar- and starch-based feedstock can be used for ethanol production, these include sugar cane, bagasse, miscanthus, sugar beet, sorghum,, switchgrass, barley, hemp, kenaf, potatoes, sweet potatoes, cassava, sunflower, molasses, whey or skim milk, corn, stover, grain, wheat, wood, paper, straw, and cotton.. Another group of feedstock which can be used for ethanol production is cellulosic materials, including various agricultural residues (e.g. corn stover, wheat straw), herbaceous materials (e.g., switchgrass) and woody materials (e.g., poplar wood) 7/14/ Sweet sorghum Country s ethanol requirement billion liters /annuum (5% level of doping in petrol) molasses can meet - 36%: Prices of molasses are volatile- high price fluctuation between states and seasons Till recently, molasses prices - soaring due to low sugar cane production, however, again recently the prices are showing declining trend Export opportunities Rest must come from other sources (multi feedstock policy) Wide scope for alternate feed-stocks sweet sorghum sugar beet Grains may be needed in potable alcohol sector 7/14/
9 Sweet sorghum Vs Sugarcane cultivation Ethyl alcohol : from stalk juice by fermentation and distillation as similar to molasses route, but without any pollution hazards. Propagation: seeds in sweet sorghum:, sugarcane by setts Short duration: days vis-a-vis12-18 months of sugarcane Water requirement - one fourth/third of sugarcane Water use or seasonal ET: Sorghum: 508 mm, Sugarcane: 1257 mm. Currently available cultivars : 2 tonne/ha of grain (also a good source for potable alcohol) and valuable bagasse - cattle-feed, paper, and for co-generation of power. 7/14/ Challenges: Technological 1. Designing of hardware (machines presently not available): Decortication or fibre separation 2. Development of highly efficient costeconomic technologies for an efficient process of transesterification 7/14/
10 Market needs:new technologies for small Biofuels /feedstock producer 7/14/ Quality Planting Material: An essential requirement for ensuring commercial production Quality raw material is critical to the success of a commercial plantation To ensure cost-effective, large scale commercial plantation, issues to be resolved are Systematic germplasm collection and evaluation programme to identify superior material from the existing natural variations Establish clonal seed orchards and develop mass multiplication techniques to ensure easy supply of elite planting material to growers. A series of multi-locational trials under different agro-climatic conditions to establish authentic data on yield estimates and 7/14/ economic of production. 10
