Mineral Water

This document provides details for establishing a packaged drinking water production business in India. It discusses the market potential, noting that safe drinking water is not universally available and demand is high. Production would involve purifying raw water through various filtration and disinfection processes before automated bottling and packaging. The total implementation time is estimated to be 9 months. Financial projections estimate an annual production capacity of 45 lakh bottles with a value of Rs. 281.25 lakh and total initial capital requirements of Rs. 130 lakh, including land, building, plant, and machinery costs. Profits are projected to be achieved in the third year once full production capacity is reached.

INTRODUCTION :
It is needless to mention that water, a compound of Hydrogen and Oxygen is a
precious natural gift which is very essential for survival of mankind including animals. The
water used for potable purposes should be free from undesirable impurities. The water
available from untreated sources such as Well, Boreholes and Spring is generally not
hygienic and safe for drinking. Thus it is desirable and necessary to purify the water and
supply under hygienic conditions for human drinking purpose. As the name implies, the
mineral water is the purified water fortified with requisite amounts of minerals such as
Barium, Iron, Manganese, etc. which can be absorbed by human body. It is either obtained
from natural resources like spring and drilled wells or it is fortified artificially by blending
and treating with mineral salts. The mineral water shall be manufactured and packed under
hygienic conditions in properly washed and cleaned bottles in sterilised conditions.
MARKET POTENTIAL :
Unfortunately sufficient safe potable water is not available everywhere in the
country, either harmful chemical substances are found in the layers of earth which enter
into water or it may be contaminated due to pathogenic micro-organisms. If such water is
consumed, the body suffers from water born diseases. Due to this, it has become
imperative to process and bottle safe potable water for the mankind in prevailing
conditions. The demand for purified water becomes more during summer season. Although
few companies have already entered in the bottling of safe potable water and mineralised
water, but still huge gap is there in between demand and supply at all metropolitan-cities
and towns. The product is widely accepted in offices, restaurants, railway stations, airport,
bus stands, hospitals and to some extent even in rich house-holds. So there is good scope
for establishing the units for processing and bottling plain and mineralised drinking water in
different parts of the country.

BASIS AND PRESUMPTIONS :


This project has been drawn on the basis of following presumptions.
1. Working hours per shift : 8
2. Number of shift/day : 3
3. Number of Working days per annum : 300
4. Total number of working hours : 72
5. Working efficiency : 75%
6. Total period for achieving maximum capacity utilisation : Third year from the date of
commencement of production.
7. Margin money : 25% of Capital Investment
8. Rate of Interest of Capital : 15% per annum.
9. Construction Cost of Building, Cost of Land, Labour Charges and Cost of Plant,
Machinery and Equipment have been considered as per prevailing rates in the market.
10. Cost of Installation and Electrification of Machinery and Equipment has been taken at
the rate of 10% of the cost of Plant and Machinery.
11. Operative period of the project has been considered as 7 years.
IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE :
It is expected that total time of about 9 months will be taken from the date of approval of
the scheme for complete implementation. Break-up of the activities and relative time for
each of them is shown below:

Nature of Activity Time Period (in months)


1. Preparation of Project and its approval 0-1 month
2. SSI Provisional Registration 1-3 months
3. Sanction of Loan 2-5 months
4. Clearance from Pollution Control Board and taking permission from Municipal
Health Authority/BIS etc. 2-5 months
5. Placement Order for machinery of equipment 4-6 months
6. Installation of machinery and equipment 6-8 months
7. Power connection arrangement from Electricity Board 2-6 months
8. Appointment of staff etc. 5-8 months
9. Trial run 8-9 months
10. Commencement of Production and permanent registration/marketing 9 months
onwards.
TECHNICAL ASPECTS:
Processing and Bottling
Raw water to be processed is collected in tanks. A known quantity is pumped into
the above tank where the water is dozed with alum for coagulation with heavy metals or
insoluable matters.The water after coagulation is allowed to settle for an hour. The
impurities may be removed by Reverse Osmosis techniques also. The supernatant water
is taken to the chlorination tank where primary disinfection is brought about by bubbling
chlorine gas. The water is then passed through sand filters for trapping of undissolved
impurities. The water after sand filteration is passed through Carbon filters for removal of
odour, colour and also for dechlorination. It is then passed through series of micro fillers
comprising 5 micron, 1 micron and 0.4 micron filter followed by ultraviolet disinfection
system for terminal disinfection. Packing is done in PET bottles of 1 litre capacity through
an automatic rinsing, filling, and capping machine fitted with an Ozone generator. The
bottles after capping are shrink wrapped (Optional) and packed in corrugated boxes of one
dozen each.
QUALITY CONTROL AND STANDARDS :
The plain drinking water has to be bottled in pet bottle as per IS Specifications
(IS:14543: 1998: Packaged Drinking Water and IS:13428:1998: Packaged Mineral Water).
The details of the specification can be obtained from Bureau of Indian Standard, Manak
Bhawan, 9, Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg, New Delhi 110002.
PRODUCTION CAPACITY
Quantity : 45 lakh Bottles per annum Value : Rs. 281.25 lakh.
Motive Power 50 H.P.
POLLUTION CONTROL:
Although this unit will not affect the environment, but the enterpreneurs are advised
to obtain, No Objection Certificate from competent authority of State Pollution Control
Board. They should develop Kitchen Garden in the factory premises to utilise waste water
from the plant.
ENERGY CONSERVATION:
Suitable measures should be adopted to use appropriate amount of fuel and electricity.
The promoters should arrange periodic auditing of electrical consumption, as the unit will
be running in three shifts. Unnecessary operation of machines should be controlled to
avoid excess consumption of electricity. Natural ventilation in production premises may be
made available to avoid use of electrical power during day hours.
