What is CO-GENERATION?
This is a combined / integrated System of production of Electrical power and useful heat by sequential use of energy from a common fuel source generally bagasse).

To generate surplus power

For Best Utilization of resources

. To have Independency in power and steam

The Major advantage of CoGen power is ;

A-Most techno- commercial viable Projects with short pay back. B-Cost of power production is very cheap compare to that of purchase power. C-Dependability and reliability with quality of power. D-Quick return on investments. E-Restore ecological imbalance. F-Ability to use Bio-Mass and organic matters like wood, grass and agro wastes and also municipal wastes. G-Availability of power between Nov. to May when Hydel power availability less. H-provides ecmomical and timeluy solution of Power problems.

Benefits of cogeneration
Better Power Quality Improved Reliability and run ability Lower Energy Costs Reduction CO2 in the environment Conserve Natural Resources Support Grid Infrastructure Fewer T&D Constraints Defer Costly Grid Upgrades Price Stability

Expected direct efficiency of multifuel boiler = 84% Then fuel saving = 84 60.5 = 23.5% Cost of fuel saving = Actual cane crushed * % of fuel caned * % fuel save for 02-03 = 729598 * 0.3 * 0.235 = Rs. 51436.65 Then total saving of bagasse = 51437 * 500 = Rs. 2,57,815 = 2.57 crore

Net gain in power = 2.79 crore Net gain in fuel save = 2.57 crore Then total gain = 2.79+2.57 = 5.36 crore

STEPS FOOR SAVINGS

!-Saving of Bagasse by adopting high technology HP Boilers 2-Reduction of moisture in bagasse 50 to 45% by improving Milling Technique. 3-Reduction in Process steam consumptions in evaporator and Prime movers BLTFF evaporators 4- Reduction in live s team consumption by using multi stage reaction Turbines. 5- Reduction in over consumptions of power TCH using new technique of
Variable drives and high efficient auxiliaries. 6-improve crushing rate by having quality power

CONCLUSION

Hence by using technique of cogeneration energy is produced more effectively and also reduces pollution.
