PRESENTATION ON BEST CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM PROJECT in KSRTC 12/8/2010 1
INDIAN TRANSPORT EMISSION SCENARIO Transport sector accounts for 25% energy consumption 12-15% 15% of GHG emission Apart from CO2 substantial amounts of other pollutants such as SPM, HC, NOx and CO are also emitted Expected growth in the sector poses a serious threat to climate change
Promoting the use of cleaner technologies KSRTC was the first STU to take up alternate fuels like biodiesel and ethanol blended diesel in more than 750 buses in Mysore divisions. The ethanol diesel blend proposed will be the first of its kind in the entire South East Asia. This project has been approved by the World Bank under the Clean Development Mechanism for purchase of carbon credits. 12/8/2010 3
PROJECT IN KSRTC Project carried out by Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC), a Public Sector Undertaking with 7,000 bus fleet Technology provider - Energetics Pte Ltd., Singapore Fuel is also known as EnerDieselTM Started in 2006, trail run with 126 buses Currently, 2160 buses are in operation in 17 depots running with EnerdieselTM Proposed use of ethanol-diesel blend in the entire fleet. 12/8/2010 4
What is Ethanol Diesel? A premium ethanol diesel fuel blend with: > 7.7 vol% Fuel Ethanol > 0.5 vol% Multi Patented Proprietary Additive > 91.8 vol% Regular Diesel > Enhanced Lubricity > Improved Cetane > Improved Corrosion Resistance > Outstanding Static Properties > Compatible with High Sulphur Diesel, Low Sulphur Diesel, Biodiesel and ULSD > Less polluting > Excellent response > No Power/Torque loss 12/8/2010 5
Cheaper, renewable environment ally cleaner fuel Direct correlation with oil oil prices Increased Demand for Ethanol Reduces fossil fuel dependence and import bill Sugarcane: Cheapest source of of manufacturing Reduction of pollutants 12/8/2010 6
Visibly cleaner air > Ethanol Diesel substantially reduces: White smoke caused by incomplete combustion during ignition of cold engines Black smoke composed of carbon particles containing oil No engine modifications required 12/8/2010 7
ONSITE DIESEL ETHANOL BLENDING Computerised Blending Equipment and ethanol storage tank installed It offers high accuracy and homogenous blending of all components Fully automatic- No need for human intervention Ethanol diesel blend is extremely clear and stable Instant effect on reducing black & white smoke emissions [ No material compatibility issues Engines are observed to be running as normal 12/8/2010 8
Technology for the future > High competitiveness Low cost compared to other alternatives Ample environmental benefits Proven immediate effects > Compatibility with other technologies New engines Diesel Oxidation Catalysts Diesel Particulate Traps Bio-diesel Hybrid bus 12/8/2010 9
