Production economics
Control the costs of ethanol production
Choose feedstock and an energy source based on local prices and the intended use of the product. We compare the cost of purchasing ethanol with the cost of in-house production, accounting for the full investment and operating expenses.

Produce ethanol for your own facility
Complement purchases with your own output and plan your facility's ethanol supply. We select capacity to suit the required volume and operating schedule.

Reuse heat from production
With a self-contained cooling package, the heat removed can be used to heat production premises and preheat water for the next mash. The benefit depends on the selected system design and the site's demand for heat.

Use grain stillage as animal feed
Grain stillage can be used as livestock feed. Its practical value depends on composition, processing, storage and the distance to the livestock farm.

Why our equipment
Modern industrial technologies in a compact design
We select the layout for your premises, utilities and planned output. Automation monitors the process, cloud-based statistics provide access to parameters and operating history, and additional units can be agreed as production develops.

Mash distillation
The continuous mash column works together with a column for separating head impurities, known as an epuration column. It produces crude spirit with the heads removed.
Compact equipment for your site
We account for ceiling height, utility connections, auxiliary vessels and maintenance access. The placement of main and auxiliary units is agreed for your site's conditions.

Automatic control of key operations
Automation controls heating, operating parameters and product collection according to the selected model's algorithms. The operator follows the process and carries out tasks according to the process instructions.
Operating parameters in view
Temperatures, actuator status and process events help assess equipment operation and investigate deviations. The parameters displayed depend on the configuration.
Operating history for diagnostics
Parameter charts and a log of events and operator actions help reconstruct the process and identify when a deviation occurred. Available data and history retention are agreed for the selected control system.
Parameters and operating history in cloud statistics
Parameters and operating history are available through cloud-based statistics. The data helps monitor production, investigate deviations and receive remote technical assistance.

Analysis and support
We define the statistics provided, data access and network connection when selecting the control system. Monitoring parameters does not replace the on-site operator.
An energy source to match your resources
We select an electric or gas-fired heat supply based on available power and operating costs. A suitable steam generator is selected for natural gas or LPG. Pellets and coal are considered as alternative or backup options.

Workshop heating + preheating mash water
Lower costs for water, wastewater disposal and additional heating
The cooling package is agreed separately. We account for its electricity consumption and the site's actual demand for heat.
Return condensate to the steam generator
In the version with indirect steam heating, steam transfers heat through a heat exchanger. The resulting condensate returns to the steam generator through a separate circuit.
Steam generator
Heat exchanger
Condensate
Return to the steam generator
Returning already heated water reduces the need for water treatment and reheating. We calculate the actual benefit for the heat supply scheme and operating conditions.
The steam and condensate circuit and the cooling circuit perform different tasks. Indirect heating, the return scheme and water requirements depend on the selected version.
Protection at three levels
Mechanical components, electrical protection and control algorithms work together. The specific devices and responses to deviations are defined by the project and described in the documentation.
Mechanical protection
Pressure and temperature monitoring, specified safety valves and connection checks help monitor the condition of process equipment.
Electrical protection
Earthing, protective devices and selected electrical components form part of the connection scheme. Site power supply and protection requirements are provided with the documentation.
Protective algorithms
The system logs specified errors, notifies the operator and performs the programmed response: limiting operation or stopping the relevant units. Responses depend on the sensors and algorithms of the selected version.

Message and log
Action under the procedure
Temperature or cooling deviation
If monitored parameters deviate, the operator receives a system message. The cause is checked using readings, the event log and operating procedures; the equipment response follows the specified protective scenario.
Automation helps detect and respond to the specified deviations. Correct connections, maintenance and the actions of a trained operator remain essential operating requirements.

What to know before choosing a plant
What is included in the supply, and what is handled on site?+
The equipment, documentation and support provided are defined in the specification and proposal. The customer organises installation work and site preparation. Commissioning is primarily guided remotely; a possible specialist visit is agreed separately according to need, team availability, fee and timing.
Can the plant operate without a continuous cooling water supply?+
Yes, with a separately agreed self-contained cooling package. A continuous supply and discharge of cooling water are not required; useful heat reuse depends on the system design and site conditions.
How do natural gas and LPG differ?+
Appropriate supply systems and steam generators are selected for mains gas and for LPG, a propane-butane mixture from a storage tank. Consumption figures for different fuels are calculated separately.
Can a specialist visit the site?+
Commissioning and support are primarily provided remotely. If needed and if the team is available, a specialist visit is arranged separately, with a separate fee, schedule and scope of work.
