New ethanol start-up in Sweden
Source : renewableenergyworld.com
One of the world's most energy-efficient bioethanol production plants is currently being commissioned in Norrkoping, Sweden by Austrian firm Vogelbusch GmbH. With a weekly output of more than 3 million liters of bioethanol from grain, the multi-pressure system is the biggest in northern Europe, the company said. The multipressure system achieves its efficiency by recycling steam used in the distillation process by the use of several distillation columns with different steam pressures. These columns combine to bring about a reduction in steam consumption of more than 50% over conventional technologies. The plant will be operated by Swedish company Lantmännen Agroetanol and a nearby biomass power station supplies the required process energy.
