Mahakaushal Agricorp India is setting up a sugarcane distillery at Derabari village of Bara block of Prayagraj. The new plant will be spread over 40 acre of land. The 80,000 klpd capacity distillery will be supported by a three MW husk-based power plant.
Excess electricity generated by the plant will be uploaded into the state power grid. Additionally, to ensure zero liquid discharge, a sewage treatment plant of 25 kld capacity will also be installed.
Mahakaushal Agricorp intends to invest around Rs 250 crore in this project. Further, provisions have also been made to expand the capacity of the distillery based on the demand expansion in the future.
