    Calculate Fermentation efficiency (FE), Distillation efficiency (DE) , Over all efficiency (OE)and
    Fermentation house recovery (FHR) from the data

    a) TRS of Molasses – 46%

    b) UFS - 6%

    c) Wash prepared - 450m3

    d) Wash sent for distillation- 445m3

    e) Alcohol % in wash- 6% w/v

    f) Alcohol production - 28.5 KL and

    g) Molasses consumed – 145 tons

    As form above it is given

    -TRS – 46% - Molasses consumed = 145 Tons or 1450 Qtls

    -Unfermentable Sugar – 6% - wash prepared = 450m3

    So Fermentable Sugar - (TRS-UFS) ie. (46-6 = 40 %) - Wash sent for distilled- 445 m3

    So FS is 40%

    - Alcohol in wash 6% w/v = 6/.793 = 7.56% v/v (sp. Gravity of Spent wash = .793)
    - Alcohol production = 28.5 KL = 28500 ltrs
    - So , Theoritical yeild (Ty)= (64.4X 1450X40)Ltrs
    100
    - Ty= 37352 ltrs
    - Fermentation efficiency = Practical Yield (Py)X 100
    Theoritical yeild (Ty)
    = 28500X100 = 76.30 %
    37352
    - Alcohol in wash (Ltr) = 450X 103 X 7.56 = 34020 lit
    100
    - FHR = Total alcohol in wash = 23.46 lit/qtls
    Molasses consumed

    - We got alcohol from wash sent for distillation is 445 x 103 x 7.56 = 33642 ltrs
    100
    - Distillation efficiency (DE) = 28500x100 = 84.71%
    33642
    - Over all efficiency OE = FEXDE = 76.30 X84.71 = 64.63%
    100 100
