Meet us Globally

Meet us at the Fuel Ethanol Workshop in St. Louis, Missouri, USA!

For over four decades, the Fuel Ethanol Workshop (FEW) has been the leading platform for innovation, technology and best practice in the production of ethanol on a global scale. As the world's largest and most prestigious ethanol conference, it brings together industry experts to discuss topics such as efficiency and sustainability, as well as the future of production.

Visit booth 1530 to learn about PILLER's solutions for reducing energy consumption and associated CO₂ emissions, and to find out about options for carbon capture.

Caldwell Reed's presentation on “Profitably Decarbonizing Ethanol Production with Mechanical Vapor Recompression” is also not to be missed.

Using real-world projects, he demonstrates how MVR technology can drastically reduce thermal energy requirements while enabling cost-effective decarbonization.

Pannonia Bio:
Optimizing steam reuse has significantly reduced energy costs and emissions.

Brazilian bioethanol plant:
MVR technology is used to drive overhead steam from the rectification column through dehydration. This has enabled the front-end distillation process to be operated using low-pressure waste gas steam, thereby reducing the carbon intensity of one of the world's leading bioethanol plants.

Chivas Brothers (Allt-A-Bhainne and Glentauchers distilleries):
MVR technology has played a pivotal role in reducing the energy intensity of distilled spirits production and supporting the achievement of ambitious sustainability goals.

Key takeaways:
• Learn how MVR technology can optimize energy consumption
• Gain insights from real-world case studies
• Discover opportunities to integrate MVR technology into your energy strategy
