Mohali, India, 16th March 2026: Spray Engineering Devices Limited (SED), a global leader in energy-efficient industrial technologies, has received a significant repeat order from Dalmia Bharat Sugar & Industries Ltd. (DBSIL) to modernise its Jawaharpur sugar unit in Uttar Pradesh. Designed for a crushing capacity of 9,000 TCD, the project aims to reduce steam consumption to approximately 30.9% on cane, drastically lowering operating costs, cutting carbon emissions, and enhancing thermal efficiency in sugar manufacturing.
This latest order underscores a long-standing partnership. SED has previously modernised Dalmia Bharat’s Ramgarh unit (reducing steam usage from 48% to 33%) and Nigohi unit (from 38% to 30%). By extending these industrial-scale breakthroughs to Jawaharpur, the two companies are setting a new benchmark for profitability and sustainability in India’s sugar sector amid rising fuel costs.
Vivek Verma, Managing Director, Spray Engineering Devices Limited said “Repeat orders are the ultimate proof of performance in our industry, and we are delighted to deepen our association with the Dalmia Bharat Group. At Jawaharpur, we are not just installing equipment, we are engineering a more sustainable future. With advanced heat-recovery and evaporation systems, we expect to deliver significant fuel savings annually, demonstrating that large-scale sugar manufacturing can be both efficient and environmentally responsible.”
Pankaj Rastogi, Business Head-Sugar Division, (DBSIL) added “Energy efficiency has become central to competitiveness in the sugar industry. By partnering with SED, we have consistently achieved reductions in steam consumption across our units. This latest upgrade at Jawaharpur is another step toward sustainable, cost-effective operations. Beyond the immediate reduction in energy waste, the modernisation will strengthen our regional presence, support the local economy, and generate direct and indirect livelihoods in Uttar Pradesh.”
Under the new order, SED will deliver complete design, supply, and automation of critical systems, including proprietary Spray Continuous Pans, high-efficiency juice heaters, and integrated falling film evaporators. The configuration will enable the plant to operate at approximately 375 TCH cane crushing rate, with flexibility for syrup diversion to distillery and refined sugar production.
Industry observers note that repeat orders in the sugar sector are typically driven by proven savings in steam consumption and process stability, especially as energy costs remain one of the largest components of sugar manufacturing.
SED has also supplied MVR-based boiler-free evaporation systems for distillery operations at Jawaharpur, enabling low-energy operation and water recovery. With installations across multiple countries in sugar, ethanol, water, and process industries, the company continues to expand its footprint with proprietary evaporation and heat-recovery technologies.
