Presentation Transcript

“ Energy – Alternate Solutions for India’s Needs” : 

“ Energy – Alternate Solutions for India’s Needs” IOC R&D Centre Conference on India R&D 2005 Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi, India Potential Alternate Fuels & Energy sources for India 8th Nov, 2005 Dr. R.P.Verma

Slide 2: 

Sustainability Generally avoiding human activities that negatively impact natural environment But to sustain human growth & progress meeting their needs R&D scientists & engineers to keep ‘sustainability’ aspect in mind While developing new technology/ alternate energy sources etc.

Slide 3: 

SOURCE: International Energy Agency, Renewables in Global Energy Supply (2003) Renewables Nuclear Coal Natural Gas Oil World Total Primary Energy Share

Slide 4: 

SOURCE: International Energy Agency, Renewables in Global Energy Supply (2003) Share of Renewables in Total TPES (%) 14.0% 13.3% 13.5% 13.8% 13.3% 12.9% 12.5% 12 World Total Primary Energy Supply

Slide 5: 

Energy Sources – Indian Scenario

Slide 6:

Slide 13: 

Ethanol blending in Gasoline beyond 5% is yet to be approved by vehicle manufacturers. Ethanol in diesel is not acceptable to fuel injection equipment manufacturers. Ethanol is diesel also raises concern about safety on account of lower Flash point. Sustained availability of Ethanol at reasonable price is another issue of concern. Issues related to Ethanol use in India

Slide 14: 

Oil Companies commissioned Pilot projects in sugarcane growing states as per the directives of MoP&NG IOC R&D undertaken detailed studies on a fleet of vehicles using ethanol blends. Based on the success of 3 Pilot projects, Govt. made ethanol blend mandatory in 9 states and 4 UTs. OMCs extended the supply of 5% ethanol gasoline blend in various states during 2003 – 05. Adequate supply of ethanol is not available in the country for last two years Status of Ethanol use in India

Slide 15: 

Biodiesel

Slide 16: 

Renewable source – from vegetable seeds/ oils Non-toxic and biodegradable Lower greenhouse gas emissions than diesel Lower exhaust emissions from engines Better fuel properties than diesel like cetane number, sulphur content, lubricity, flash point etc. Biodiesel – An Emerging Renewable Option

Slide 17: 

Jatropha & Karanjia, Vegitable plants of Choice for India

Slide 18: 

Developed process for esterification of vegetable oils and already produced several batches of bio-diesel from various vegetable oils Physico-chemical testing of HSD and Biodiesel blends Storage Stability and Material Compatibility Studies Startability, Driveability, power and Mass emission tests on vehicles Chemical Speciation of Particulate Matter (Pm) collected during emission testing Biodiesel Studies at IOC R&D

Slide 21: 

Evaluation of neat diesel and upto B20 on 4 passenger cars and 2 Light Commercial vehicles Engine oil condition monitoring, Material compatibility and durability of engine to be assessed by Tata Motors Tata Motors Employee buses – 43 Nos. already running on B10 in Pune. Tata Motors – IOC Joint Project

Slide 22: 

20 buses running on 5% Biodiesel blend for almost one year Driveability performance observed satisfactory and smoke found lower Based on the success of trials so far Haryana Roadways agreed to convert entire Gurgaon and Nuh depot to 5% Biodiesel Biodiesel blending facility created at Rewari terminal of IOC Haryana roadways – IOC Joint Project

Slide 23: 

Biodiesel Emission Life Cycle

Slide 24: 

Biodiesel policy has been announced by MoP&NG on 9th October, 2005 at IOC R&D Centre for the purchase of Biodiesel. The Biodiesel policy will involve the PRIs for Jatropha plantations and oil extractions by establishing Rural business hubs (RBHs). Under this policy OMCs will set up purchase centre at a price of Rs. 25 /lt for Biodiesel at 20 locations for 5% blending of biodiesel in diesel. Assistance will be provided to PRIs by institutes like NOVOD, Ministry of Bio-technology, PCRA and NBRI for Jatropha plantation and oil extraction. IOC R&D will conduct further emission studies and field trials for developing data on increasing biodiesel content in a systematic manner i.e. from 5% to 20%. Biodiesel Purchase policy

Slide 25: 

Gasification & GTL

Slide 26: 

Gasification and production of liquid fuels Exploitation of vast coal reserves in India Co-generation of steam, power& hydrogen and production of liquid fuels from synthesis gas (technology cost reduced from $60/bbl in 1970 to $ 35/bbl) Collaborative R&D efforts for cogasification of coal, residue and petcoke Bio mass gasification Overall potential assessed to be 19500 MW (India) From bagasse alone 3500 MW (India) Current installed capacity : 425 MW (India) (addl. 480 MW under construction) Swiss grass crop – higher Syngas and Hydrogen Cogasification of biomass, coal etc. for low NOx and hydrogen production

GTL : 

GTL GTL Process Group of technologies to produce liquid hydrocarbons from variety of feedstock Involves two major process steps Conversion of feedstock into Syngas (mixture of H2 & CO) Syngas conversion to liquid fuels through Fischer Tropsch Expected worldwide capacity of 1.5 – 2.0 Mbbl/day (~75-100MMTPA) by 2015
