Co₂ (Carbon Dioxide)
Food-Grade CO₂ from Fermentation for Industrial & Commercial Use
At Shri Balaji Sugars & Chemicals Pvt. Ltd., our integrated bioenergy system includes the capture and purification of Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) generated during the ethanol fermentation process. Rather than allowing this byproduct to escape into the atmosphere, we recover and convert it into food-grade CO₂ — a valuable resource used in beverages, refrigeration, welding, and other industries.
This initiative aligns with our commitment to reducing emissions, maximizing resource efficiency, and contributing to India’s green industrial economy.
Environmental Impact & Sustainability
By capturing and utilizing CO₂, Balaji Sugars:
🌍 Minimizes greenhouse gas emissions
🔄 Promotes circular resource use in ethanol production
🧱 Supports sustainable industrial processes
👨🔬 Contributes to low-carbon manufacturing ecosystems
This approach reflects our belief that every by-product has a purpose — and with the right technology, even emissions can be transformed into value.

How We Capture CO₂
During the fermentation of molasses to produce ethanol, significant amounts of CO₂ are naturally released. We’ve implemented advanced CO₂ recovery technology to:
Capture fermentation gas
Purify and liquefy CO₂ to food-grade standards
Store and supply in pressurized cylinders or tanks
This system allows us to turn waste gas into a commercially viable, environmentally responsible product.
Key Applications of Recovered CO₂
🥤 Beverage Industry: Carbonation in sodas, sparkling water, and energy drinks
❄️ Cold Storage & Freezing: As dry ice for transportation and preservation
🔧 Industrial Use: Welding, fire extinguishers, and cleaning applications
🌱 Greenhouses: Enhances plant growth when used in controlled environments
🧪 Pharmaceuticals & Labs: Inert gas applications and quality control processes
