ZLD Plant Case Study – “PROJECT AT TGV SRAAC LIMITED, KURNOOL​

SYNOPSIS

TGV SRAAC LIMITED (formerly Sree Rayalaseema Alkalies and Allied ChemicalsLtd.) is the flagship company of the TGV Group. It is the leading producer ofChlor-Alkali products and also manufactures Castor Derivatives and FattyAcids.

TGV OBJECTIVE WITH “SCALEBAN” TECHNOLOGY

Due to high operating cost of conventional technologies such as Evaporator for achieving ZLD objective. TGV SRAAC management was looking for an alternative cost effective sustainable solution.

TGV Approach to adopt “SCALEBAN” technology:

TGV SRAAC came across “SCALEBAN” Technology through their industrial references/interactions with our existing clients in India and outside India. After getting good performance feedback of “SCALEBAN” Technology with our clients in India & abroad, In the 1st Phase, TGV SRAAC awarded contract to implement ‘SCALEBAN’ technology at their 500TPD Caustic Soda Evaporation plant cooling tower to utilize their 250m3/day Final RO reject in cooling tower at high COC for optimizing water conservation and ZLD objectives on a sustainable basis.

After its successful implementation at 500 TPD caustic soda Evaporation plant cooling tower, TGV SRAAC LTD. awarded repeat order for their 200 TPD caustic soda Evaporation plant cooling tower to use balance quantity of RO reject to optimize ZLD objective on a sustainable basis.

With the implementation of “SCALEBAN” technology, we have successful eliminated the need of Evaporator for the treatment of wastewater RO reject  and saved high CAPEX and OPEX for achieving ZLD objective.

Achievements of the “SCALEBAN” Project:

  • Achieved water conservation and ZLD objectives on a sustainable basis.
  • Saving in high CAPEX of MEE (Evaporator).
  • Saving in high OPEX of MEE (Evaporator).
  • 100% saving of fresh water consumption in cooling towers.
  • Completed project in 6-8 weeks time.
  • Considerable reduction in Carbon footprint.
  • High COC operations of the cooling tower.
  • Substantial reduction in cooling tower blowdown quantity.
  • Zero scale, corrosion & biofouling free operation of the condensers/coolers.
  • By implementing Scaleban technology TGV contributed in achieving UNsustainable development goal no. 6,7,13,14

We are thankful to TGV SRAAC team for implementing ‘SCALEBAN’ Technology for achieving water conservation and ZLD system on a sustainable basis.
