Nominal capacity
Two process modules · batch rectification
Mash distillation and batch rectification are two independent process modules.
Each process unit has a clear role: distillation separates alcohol from the mash, a dedicated column removes the heads fraction, and rectification brings the product to its target specifications.
Continuous mash column + heads removal / rectification column with 850 L pot
500 L/day is the nominal output. Depending on the feedstock, output may be slightly higher or lower when the operating conditions are maintained.
Mash distillation and rectification operate as two independent modules.
Before starting, the operator checks that the equipment is ready, enters the crude spirit volume, measures its initial alcohol strength and selects the agreed settings. Mash preparation and readiness checks remain part of the on-site work.
Using the inputs and settings, the control system calculates fraction take-off and the estimated cycle duration, and regulates heating and take-off rate. The operator monitors rectification and responds to system messages.
The system switches operating modes to collect the specified fractions in sequence. The operator prepares and connects the required vessels in advance according to the equipment layout.
Fewer manual switching operations during a cycle lasting several hours, a clear operating sequence and a process history. Product quality also depends on feedstock, preparation and adherence to the process requirements.
New interface: RU / EN / DE / FR / AR. The version and control interface languages are confirmed for the selected configuration.
Cloud-based statistics provide access to operating parameters and history. The customer receives data for monitoring production, while the technical team uses it to analyse operation and provide remote assistance.
We define the statistics provided, data access and network connection when selecting the control system. Monitoring parameters does not replace the on-site operator.
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.
Pressure and temperature monitoring, specified safety valves and connection checks help monitor the condition of process equipment.
Earthing, protective devices and selected electrical components form part of the connection scheme. Site power supply and protection requirements are provided with the documentation.
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.
Select a protection scenario
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.
Site layout
We agree on module positions, connections and working aisles to suit your premises. The plan includes the main plant and auxiliary production areas.
We define the connection points for electricity or steam, water and drainage. We account for the selected heating and cooling options.
We plan aisles and access to control panels, pumps and connections so the operator can monitor the plant and service its components comfortably.
We allow space for fermentation, finished product and auxiliary equipment. The areas are selected according to the feedstock, and we agree on their layout at the site.
We determine the exact area for the premises and selected configuration
Send us the floor plan or room dimensions, ceiling height and utility locations. We use these to agree on the arrangement of modules, auxiliary areas and maintenance access.
We select an electric or gas-fired steam generator using natural gas or LPG from a storage tank. We account for available energy, required power and operating costs. Pellets and coal are considered as an alternative or backup option.
We confirm operating values, installed power and actual power consumption for the selected configuration.
Approximate values. Actual consumption depends on operating mode and heat source efficiency.
Energy efficiency: energy use per litre and useful heat recovery. We compare options using your site's operating mode and utilisation.
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.
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.
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.
Quality and support
Producing the selected grade requires suitable feedstock, proper mash preparation and adherence to production conditions. Lux uses grain feedstock; Alpha uses wheat, rye or a mixture of both.
For each feedstock, we define preparation, the processing cycle and target ethanol specifications. Suitability and expected yield are confirmed in the process sheet.
We select the process for food-grade or industrial ethanol applications. Lux and Alpha grades require suitable grain feedstock and compliance with process requirements.
Wheat, rye or a mixture of both
Grades under GOST 5962-2013 can be obtained with suitable feedstock and compliance with the full set of process requirements.
We assemble the plant at our site and connect the control system. In the buyer’s presence, we check the controls, sensors and pumps, verify that the equipment is complete, and inspect assembly quality. We demonstrate how to assemble, start and maintain the equipment.
