[EIRI/EDPR/3658] J.C.: 1743XL

INTRODUCTION

Neutral spirit is ethanol, which will only have the characteristic taste and odour of
ethanol. It is manufactured from molasses, grains and other carbohydrate raw
materials.

In order to classi~ the different types of neutral spirit according to the raw
materials used for the manufacture, the value of the raw material should be
prefixed as follows.

Molasses Neutral Spirit

Neutral spirit made from molasses will be called molasses neutral spirit.

Grain Neutral Spirit ,

Neutral spirit made from grain or malt will be named as grain neutral spirit.

Similarly prefix will be used according to raw material used for manufacture.

Pure Ethyl Alcohol C2 H2O also known as absolute alcohol is a colourless mobile
inflammable liquid. The term alcohol was first applied to the spirits of wine
ethyl alcohol and now it refers to a series of substances with similar
characteristics ethyl alcohol is the active constituent of all intoxicating liquors
obtained by the fermentation of starchy materials. It is present in the a days
prepared in immense quantities chiefly by fermentation and finds numerous
industrial uses, and is also being used as a motor fuel.

Starch bearing materials potatoes, rice wheat maize,etc. form another important
source of alcohol potatoes were extensively used for the manufacture of alcohol
in Germany before the War 1st. Alcohol produced from grains costs more than
that produced from molasses and grains are chiefly used for the production of
patable liquers. Alcohol possesses excellent solvent properties, and it is used for
the extraction of several drugs and for the manufacture of tinctures and others
medicinal prepaparation. It is also employed for the extraction of essential oils,
and for the preparation of perfumes, essences and flavours.

For a developing country like India, where the basic organic chemical Industry
had to take a start from the available source, ethyl alcohol has been found to be
a suitable raw material for a variety of products. So it was in the fitness of
things that India started some of the major thermoplastics and chemical
intermediates from alcohol.
