Biotechnical production of ethanol Deluxe

As well as its great importance for the chemical and foodstuffs industries, ethanol (alcohol) is increasingly used as a fuel. Realistic experiments for the production of ethanol from starch-based raw materials such as potatoes can be conducted. The experimental plant consists of three main components: a mash tank, a fermentation tank and a distillation unit.

• batch conversion of starch-based raw materials into ethanol
• open mash tank with water-jacket cooling, steam injection and stirrer
• closed fermentation tank with stirrer and water-jacket cooling/heating
• distillation unit with 3 bubble cap trays, dephlegmator, condenser and stirrer
• 2 pumps for delivering the mash
• pH value control in the mash tank with acid and caustic delivered by metering pumps
• adjustment of the amount of injected heating steam, the cooling water flow rates and the head temperature by means of PID controllers
• plant control using a PLC; operated by touch screen
• integrated router for operation and control via an end device and for screen mirroring: mirroring of the user interface on up to 5 end devices
• data acquisition via PLC on internal memory, access to stored measured values via WLAN/LAN with integrated router/LAN connection to customer’s own network or direct LAN connection without customer network
