Quality Check

Each corn shipment undergoes thorough lab testing to ensure quality before entering the biorefinery.

Grinding and fibre separation

The corn kernels are ground to break open the husk and access the starch. The separated fibre is then used in biogas production within the facility.

Mashing and fermentation

Enzymes and yeast initiate a 75-hour fermentation at controlled temperatures, transforming sugars into ethanol.

Fibre

A breakthrough innovation, our fibre extraction process creates high-value products for the food, energy and agricultural sectors.

Separation

The solid fraction is dried, while the wet fraction moves forward for bioethanol production.

Biogas production

Extracted fibre is transformed into biogas for the consumer grid, with the leftover digestate converted into nutrient-rich organic fertiliser.

Food and animal feed

Processed fibre is sold for both food and feed applications, delivering high-value solutions across industries.

Distillation

Heat and distillation towers separate water from alcohol, producing ethanol.

Drying

Wet distillers’ grains are dried with hot air to create DDGS (Distillers’ Dried Grains with Solubles), a high-quality feed product.

Dehydration

A molecular sieve with zeolite filters removes any remaining water, yielding pure ethanol.

Storage and transportation:

The high-quality DDGS is stored onsite and then loaded onto trucks, trains, or barges for distribution.

Quality Check

All barley shipments are tested and inspected before being stored at the plant.

Storage

After unloading, the barley is pre-cleaned to remove awns and impurities.

Cleaning and grinding

The grain is separated from the husk, milled in three stages, and the by-products are sold as animal feed.

Liquefaction

Starch is converted into sugars through the application of heat, water, and amylase enzymes, priming it for ethanol production.

Separation

Centrifuges separate the glucose-rich fraction for ethanol and the protein-rich dry fraction for feed or biogas.

Drying

The product is dried and pelletised, resulting in a premium animal feed with over 60% protein.

Food Ingredient Production

The production of high-value food protein concentrate through advanced processing technologies.
