Membrane-Based Sugar Cane Ethanol Refinery
Vaperma developed the Siftek™ polymeric membrane technology to optimize the ethanol production in comparison with the conventional alcohol distilleries processes.This revolutionary membrane is simple to operate and low maintenance. It provides a real and measurable reduction in the amount of plant heat energy required to produce ethanol. Alcohol produced with advanced membrane solutions demands less steam generated from burning bagasse, thus allowing for more cogeneration of bio-electricity. As a result, the carbon footprint is also dramatically reduced.
Vaperma has teamed up with Dedini, the largest ethanol technology and equipment provider in Brazil, to promote its Siftek™ technology for the sugacane ethanol production.
