across all the industries.
B. V. Sambashivan (Chairman Conference Board - Powder
and Bulk Solids India 2016)
Powder and Bulk Solids India
2016 is an event which will
provide a very effective
platform for exhibitors and
conference participants from
the bulk solids industry to
interact, network and get
knowledge of the available
technologies of ongoing
research in various fields and
also seek insight in to possible
business oppor-tunities. The
event will have a large
participation considering the
wide spectrum of topics and
industries that will be covered
"This industry has a big basket of
its own industry segments
covering the food, pharmaceuticals, infrastructure industries
comprising mining, power,
steel, fertilizers, cement,
powder etc All these industries
have their own growth patterns
depending on various factors
such as demand, availability,
investments available etc. The
food and the pharmaceuticals
industries are continuing to
grow well while some sluggishness is observed in the infra
structure industries at the
moment. However the infrastructure industry has to accelerate
its growth considering the
country's needs."
"Whatever the industry status
is at the moment, the event
aims to provide a good
opportunity for the participants in general to get a good
view of various activities taking
place in the industry. This
event helps the industrial
growth also since it gives
opportunities for participants
to understand the available
efficient and cost effective
technologies, interact with
researchers and academicians
which will prompt them to go
for such technologies and
implement them in their own
segment industries. It is a
platform where the top
researchers and academicians
of global repute interact and
network with the industry."
Many countries have shown a
lot of interest in industrial
growth in India in the last few
decades and are continuing to
do so. Therefore this event will
give them also lot of opportunities to network with their
Indian counterparts and
showcase their expertise. The
exhibitors and conference
presenters get opportunities
to present to visitors the
developments they have made
in their respective specialist
areas. The conference presenters can be from research
organisations, consultants,
industry community etc.
The visitors will gain good
knowledge of the advances
made in ongoing research,
engineering, and manufacture
and commissioning practices
etc. This will help them to
either implement them in their
own plants if they are in the
user industry or adopt such
practices if they are in the
technology developing industry.
Overall the event experience
will be exhilarating and visitors
and participants will carry
pleasant memories with them.
Wishing a very happy experience.

HOSOKAWA ALPINE AT POWDER AND BULK SOLIDS INDIA
Mrs. V. Manjula
Managing Director,
Hosokawa Micron India
Pvt. Ltd.
Hosokawa Micron India a 100%
subsidiary of Hosokawa Alpine
Germany, a pioneer and world
leader ( +120 year old company)
in supplying of powder process
equipments is supplying equipments ro the fast growing
industry in India. They are the
leading and well know technology providers in powder
handling and processing technology. Like every year in 2016
Powder and Bulk Solids India too
they are participating. Mrs.
Manjula Managing Director of
India, has also been appointed
as the conference board member
this year. In a conversation with
Editor She shares her thoughts,
“Powder and Bulk Solids India in
general we consider as a
technology platform for all
industries / applications wherever
Powders are handled. For us, it
is a Powtech in India, and we will
be focussing this year mainly
for Pharma, Food, Chemical
(speciality) and Plastic applications. We will be displaying
products like Jet mills, Mechanical Impact mills, and classifier
mills suitable for applications
for Pharma- API milling, Food –
Cryogenic grinding / Active
Freeze Dryers, Chemicals– Organic Pigments, Toners, Metal Powders
and PTFE processing. Minerals –
Special value addition for Filler
materials like Calcium Carbonate,
Talc processing and so on,
Recycling of Cables, Packaging
Films''.
“In general Indian industries
have seen significant declines in
exports, including commodity,
engineering goods, and so on.
However, not all segments of
Indian exports have been so
badly impacted. The Indian
economy was expected to recover
only gradually. Investment is
yet to pick up significantly. The
government has been pursuing
a very positive policy of trying
to attract global foreign direct
investment into manufacturing
in India through the 'Make in
India' policy. This is expected to
boost foreign investment into
building production facilities in
India, including for export. It is
highly beneficial if the implementation is done in full force”
“Powder and Bulk Solids India
conference and exhibition is
focusing mainly on visitors
and exhibitors issues of interest.
They offer high level panel of
speakers which include repre-
sentatives from the operational
side, industry, media, experts
and leading professors from
renowned Institutes. It will be
covering all aspects of particle,
powder technology and bulk
handling. It will help the
industries related with the field
to get the technical updation at
one place”
“Since Powder and Bulk Solids
India 2016 will be now planned
with a quality inter-national
workshops and panel discussions on dedicated topics,
technology advancement and
experiences of Managers learned
from operations of the systems/
technologies, it is highly beneficial
to participants who will attend
this time. My recommendation
is CEOs, Head of Depts from
Project, Quality Control, and
Regulatory Affairs, Production
and Maintenance officials should
participate from companies in
the sector of Minerals and Metals,
Pharma, Food, Chemicals and
so on”

ROLOLOK VALVES AT POWDER AND BULK SOLIDS INDIA 2016
Rololok Valves is pleased to
participate at the Powder and
Bulk Solids India 2016 going to
be held at Mumbai. Rotolok has
been almost in the global
market for more than 40 years
& offered a correct solution for
handling bulk solids for flow
control. We are going to display
flow control products for
handling bulk solids. We will be
giving Rotary Airlock valve for
all application starting from
normal conveying to pressure
conveying and its focus on
industries like cement, power,
steel, minerals, process and
food industries.
The industry is slowly picking
up and in coming year there will
be an opportunity for supplying
bulk solid handling equip-
ment's to the industry. There
are many manufacturer of
rotary airlock which they
are manufacturing without
knowing the proper application, here we stand out with
large experience and expertise
in this flied.
Mr. Prasanna Veraraghavan
Director, Rololok Valves
ROTARY & ROUNDHEAD VALVES
Rotolok valves have several
features that need to be
considered when comparing
our valves to the competition.
Construction of valves is of
robust cast bodies and end
covers. Bodies, end covers
and rotor are precisely
machined on CNC machines.
Spigot Located End Covers
– ensures concentricity
and tight clearances. All
bodies can be drilled and
tapped for body vents. All
end covers can be drilled
and tapped for air purge
shaft seals. Rotors are
available with open or
closed ends. Fixed bladed
rotors are standard (beveled
blades optional) which
have less drag and have
less product degradation.
Larger rotor shafts –
ensures rotor does not
deflect under product
and/or pressure loading.
Bearings are sealed for life
ball type rigged outboard
and for high temperature
above 250° C, ZZ bearings
with kluber grease are
fitted. Gland type shaft
seals – eliminates leakage
and allows adjustment and
various types of packing
material. Gland follower will
withdraw sufficiently to allow
the packing to be changed
without disassembling entire
valve. All threads and fasteners
are metric.
CHAIN-VEY CONVEYOR
Modern Process Equipment, in
India know as
Bectochem
Consultants and Engineers manufactures the Chain-Vey, a tubular
drag conveyor that is specifically
designed for the transport of food,
chemical and other bulk powder
products without product degradation or declassification.
It has a totally enclosed design that
eliminates dust hazards and the
need for pneumatics - low power
consumption in terms of per kg of
material conveyed hence making
most economical and most
efficient conveying system. System
can be configured to accept
heated air to maintain product
temperature and moisture levels ,
Flexible system configurations ,
Gentle conveying eliminates SAP
declassification during transport ,
Low maintenance operation
NOVEL WAY CHAIN VEY: New way
of conveying with reduced power
consumption per kg of product
conveyed, virtually the application
list is endless be it powder or any
difficult application it can convey
pellets, powders, peanuts, oats,
soap noodles etc. We have
conducted numerous trials on
various products, where we have
demonstrated the new way of
conveying using chains and
specially engineered Plastic
UHMW. Slide fiction of the UHMW
is very low with the Stainless steel
hence the close gap between the
two ensures maximum product
conveying with less spillage and

and Engineers Pvt. Ltd.
added extra wiper disc ensures
cleaning of the pipe internally all
the time making ideal choice for
the production people.
Eliminates Product Declassification and Degradation with
a dust-tight enclosed design. It
features clean-in-place capabilities with automated wash
cycles for sanitary conveying
needs.
The Chain Vey design uses less
than 20% of the energy usage of
pneumatic conveying systems and
can convey distances of up to 200
feet (60 meters). These flexible
designs also enable multiple inlets
and discharge points, enabling our
customers to design and build
conveying systems that fit their
unique processing needs. It is the
most robust and reliable tubular
drag conveyor on the market,
requiring zero unscheduled
maintenance per year, and less
than 1% of scheduled maintenance time. It requires very few
consumable parts, typically less
than $100 per year.

INDEX
INDIAN POWER SECTOR
India has seen lot of changes in
past few months . It has been in
spotlight since the it crossed
china's GDP rate . There is lot of
work happening from Industry
and government side. New
opportunities are opening up. To
give some facts of the industry I
present to you some key figures.
SECTOR
l Indian power sector grew by
8.4% YoY due to
l Availability of coal stock
l Increase in the installed
power capacity
l India has added cumulative
The Chemical & Pharmaceutical
Industry :It is the 3rd largest
producer in Asia and 12 largest in
terms of volume .It accounts for
7% of world production of dye
stuff and intermediaries .India is
a key manufacturer for generics
and drug intermediaries. This
industry likely to grow at 12%
over the next five years.
The Food Processing Sector :
The Indian food industry is
expected to grow at a rate of 11
per cent to touch (US$ 64.31
billion) by 2018.Share of Food
processing sector in GDP of
manufacturing sector was
around 10 -11% in 2014
CURRENT SCENARIO IN POWER
power capacity of 61,014
MW upto March 2015
l Thermal segment has achieved ~80% of the targeted
capacity addition, followed
by Hydro (~21%) and balance
by nuclear segment with
~19%
GROWTH DRIVERS IN POWER
SECTOR
l Reallocation of coal blocks
through e-auction process
l New gas pooling mechanism
to bailout 14,000 MW of
stranded power plants
l New Ultra Mega Power
Project (UMPP) policy to
approach plug and play
model
l Rising focus on renewable
energy sector
l Capex for power generation
to boost the focus on the T&D
space
Our study helps us to share our
findings to the industry. Power
sector shall have moderate
growth for the next fiscal as the
plant load factor of plants is
expected to remain low along
with marginal growth in
electricity demand.It is expected
that power demand shall have
moderate growth of ~4-5%
whereas power generation is
expected to grow at 5-6% in FY
2016-17, with deficits remaining
low at 3-4%.The PLFs of the
thermal power plants are likely
to remain low as demand growth
is marginal. Also, as the
renewable energy share
increases, it could exert
additional pressure on the PLFs
of coal-based plants.
large coal importers
Against the backdrop of limited
possibility of tariff hikes,
discoms will be forced to
improve their operational
efficiency by lowering of
aggregate technical & commercial (AT&C) losses, power
purchase cost rationalisation
and lowering of interest costs.
Despite the odds, the outlook
could be revised to 'stable' on
directional movement towards
improvement in the financial
health of discoms, better
visibility on demand growth for
electricity leading to improvements in PLFs.
The coal output to increase by
10% in the next fiscal to reach
594 metric tonnes, given the
government's focus on achieving
the targeted one billion metric
tonnes by 2020 and on the back
of the strong performance this
financial year.
Higher output will come from
ramping up output from existing
and new mines and better
efficiency. The increase in
domestic coal output, coal
imports into India could decline
by 10-15 per cent, which is likely
to exert pressure on volumes of
