Abstract

Nandan offers bioenergy plant based bio-diesel energy solutions. By converging the strengths and focus on ?Sustainability?, NCL has developed cutting?edge technology that benefits the entire bio-diesel spectrum from Seed to Oil and Beyond. Nandan?s competitive asset is the committed team of experts and state of the art technology that has enabled it to excel in bioenergy R&D and achieve publication of its seven patents on superior bioenergy hybrids. NCL has devised an immaculate plan for renewable power generation from biomass. Drawing a bead on the available economies of scale, the company wishes to utilize the available captive biomass from bioenergy plantations across India to fulfill the feedstock requirement for generating power through biomass. In addition to Jatropha the company has commenced its research on other biomass crops such as Gliricidia, Subabul, Neem, Bamboo, Melia and Eucalyptus. The in-house technologies and research facility, developed through years of research experience, has also been recognized by esteemed institutions like Department of Science & Industrial Research, Government of India. This has enabled NCL to successfully establish industrial scale bioenergy projects on marginal lands pan- India (Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Orissa, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh). A new element in NCL R&D activities is the recently established 2nd generation Catalytic De Polymerization (CDP) Pilot Plant (German Technology), which enables us with the ability to produce biodiesel from biomass and bioenergy species oil mixture. The technology will completely transform the economics of bioenergy cultivation by converting the oil component of the seed as well as pruned crops biomass into Green Diesel, giving greater benefits
