Stillage Screens and Modular Boiler Installation
C&I performed a front-end study and detail design for this project. The project required installation of a new water treatment and new boiler building in an operational distillery. Integration of systems must occur during a planned summer distillery outage and coincide with a major plant expansion.
The stillage from the stills is separated in new screeners and the thick stillage is pumped a considerable distance across a road and railroad track to an Anerobic Digestion facility, designed by others. After processing, the C&I team piped the RNG back to the distillery and blended it with an existing natural gas feed to power the new modular boilers. The team has navigated the challenges of working with multiple vendors, permitting entities, and engineering firms to coordinate the design and installation of this project.
