Match List I (Power generation plant) with List II (Feed material) and select the correct answer using the codes given below the Lists: List I List II

List I | List II
I. M/s Gowthami Solvents Oil Limited, Andhra Pradesh | (A) Rice husk
II. M/s KM. Sugar Mills, Uttar Pradesh | (B) Slaughter-house waste
III. M/s Satia Paper Mills, Punjab | (C) Distillery spent wash
IV. M/s Al Kabeer Exports Limited, Andhra Pradesh | (D) Black liquor

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C
Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 (I-A, II-C, III-D, IV-B). This matching is based on the specific industrial waste-to-energy projects promoted by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) in India.

  • I-A: Gowthami Solvents is a major solvent extraction plant where Rice Husk is the primary biomass residue used for power generation.
  • II-C: K.M. Sugar Mills operates a distillery; the acidic effluent known as Distillery Spent Wash is treated through anaerobic digestion to produce biogas for power.
  • III-D: Satia Paper Mills utilizes Black Liquor, a toxic byproduct of the kraft process in papermaking, which is burned in recovery boilers to generate energy.
  • IV-B: Al Kabeer Exports is a leading meat processing unit where Slaughter-house waste is converted into energy via biomethanation.

Options 1, 2, and 4 are incorrect because they mismatch these industry-specific feed materials with their respective technological processes.
