ICAR-NISA Novel Electric Bhatta for Button Lac Production

Technology Details:

The developed machine uses electric heaters to melt the seedlac instead of wood charcoal. Thus, operator drudgery caused by firing wood charcoal is completely excluded during filtration process.

The developed machine has following unique features:

• Clean production of button lac
• Elimination of wood/charcoal in button lac production
• Precise control over heat generation
• Reduction in operator drudgery
• Reduction in the environmental pollution
• Green production of button lac when operated using solar power
