  • Power Quality Analysis for Sugar Industry with Cogeneration
    2018 Second International Conference on Inventive Communication and Computational Technologies (ICICCT), 2018
    Co-Authors: Vaibhav P. Ingale, Akash D. Jadhav, Nilesh K. Takawale, Shrikant D. Mangate
    Abstract:

    This paper presents a case study of electrical power quality of Sugar Industry. VFDs are extensively used in most of Sugar Industries, to achieve better performance of Sugar Industry. Initially DC Drives were used, but now a day these are replaced by AC Drives. In a case study of Power Quality Analysis of MALEGAON SAHAKARI SAKHAR KARKHANA LTD, SHIVNAGAR, BARAMATI (MSSK LTD). It is seen that at some place old DC drives has been replaced with latest technology AC drives. But because of variation in the load pattern, these drives still produce harmonics. In order to find out these harmonics, MSSK LTD, SHIVNAGAR, BARAMATI Sugar Industry has grid connected Cogeneration plant. The power quality audit has to be done for the Sugar Industry.

  • Determinants of Competitiveness of the Swaziland Sugar Industry
    Journal of Agricultural Studies, 2016
    Co-Authors: Ndlangamandla Knowledge
    Abstract:

    The issue of abolishment of trade agreements preferences pose a great threat to the Sugar Industry in Swaziland. Several questions arise on the global comparative advantage of the Sugar Industry considering that it is the centre of the country`s economy. This study aimed at estimating the comparative advantage of Swaziland Sugar Industry in the global market, factors responsible for this comparative advantage, and the factors affecting the competitiveness of the Swaziland Sugar Industry. The Relative Trade Advantage, multiple linear regression model and Porter`s 1990 National Diamond concept were used to achieve the set objectives, respectively. The study found that the Swaziland Sugar Industry had a relatively highly comparative advantage in the global market in terms of producing Sugar. Results from the regression model indicated that global Sugar market prices, exchange rate and export values had a significant influence on Swaziland`s comparative advantage. The Porter`s (1990) National Diamond model analysis revealed factors that enhance competitiveness of the Sugar Industry including business approach to human resource, relationship and networking, availability of unskilled labour and production of high quality products. Some factors that have a major constraining effect on the competitiveness were the small local market size, cost of transport, and cost of supply of inputs. Government in consultation with the Industry representatives should consider development and implementation of an Industry policy strategy for the Sugar Industry intended to ensure its survival. In order to counteract the effects of global market prices and the exchange rate, exploring of new market opportunities is essential. Other strategies would be to improve efficiencies at both field and factory level.

  • Renewable energy: an opportunity for the South African Sugar Industry?
    2005
    Co-Authors: A. Wienese, B. S. Purchase
    Abstract:

    In the South African Sugar Industry, both co-generation and the production of fuel alcohol are considered to be uneconomical. Although this is probably true at present, it might change in the near future due to changing market opportunities, environmental considerations, technological developments and an increasing demand for energy. The South African Government targets 10 000 GWh renewable energy by 2013, to be produced mainly from biomass, wind, solar and small-scale hydro. The renewable energy is to be utilised for power generation and non-electrical technologies such as solar water heating and bio-fuel. This presents an opportunity for the South African Sugar Industry in terms of value addition and diversification and reduces its exposure to the world Sugar market. To seize this opportunity the Industry has to be pro-active both in laying the political and technical foundations. This paper looks at the possible prospects of renewable energy for the South African Sugar Industry.

  • Energy Management in the South African Sugar Industry
    2013
    Co-Authors: Charles Mbohwa
    Abstract:

     Abstract—The South African Sugar Industry produces Sugar and electricity and raw materials for ethanol production among other by-products. The cogeneration of electricity in the Sugar Industry is linked to energy security and avoided greenhouse gas emissions. Electrical energy and thermal energy are the primary energy types used for Sugar processing. This paper identifies energy management best practices necessary to increase the efficiency of the cogeneration processes. Adoption of energy conservation and efficiency measures is imperative for the Sugar Industry to generate electricity for own use and for export to the national grid. More energy efficient practices save money and reduce coal consumption. Equipment and technological improvements coupled with process design improvements necessary to improve factory energy efficiency are identified. The paper further discusses the bio-energy role and potential in the South African Sugar Industry with a view to inform decision making and advise government policies.
