INTRODUCTION
This is
detergent in cake form, which can be used with hand as well
as in soft water.
In our country,
village people are accustomed to washing clothes near rivers

year is presumed. Efficient machines and
workers are also presumed.
2. Minimum
6 month period is considered for achieving full capacity utilisation
3. Labour
rates are as per the prevailing rates.
4. An
average interest rate of 18% is considered.
5. The
estimates are drawn for a production capacity generally considered
techno-economically viable for model type
of manufacturing activity.
6. The
information supplied is based on a standard type of manufacturing
activity viable for model type of manufacturing
activity.
7. The
information supplied is based on a standard type of manufacturing
activity utilising conventional techniques of
production at optimum level of performance.
8. Costs
in respect of land and building, machinery and equipment,
raw materials and the selling prices of the finished
products etc., are generally prevailing at the time of preparation
of the project profiles and may vary depending
upon various factors.
9. Whereas
some names of manufacturers, suppliers of machinery and equipment,
raw materials etc. are indicated at
the end of the profile, those are by no means exclusive or
exhaustive.
IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE
Normally
six months are required for the complete implementation of
the project, including machinery erection, raw materials procurement
etc.
TECHNICAL ASPECTS
There are
two methods for the manufacturing of Detergent Powder, viz.
spray dried detergent powder and just mixing of Detergent

and hence the other simple mixing method is adopted by a number
of small units. In this project profile, simple mixing method
is followed.
