Ethanol technologyA high-performance process for beverage and fuel applications

TechnipFMC’s proprietary ethanol technology includes a full scope of services for the design, construction and successful startup of plants. We have hundreds of references in the ethanol industry throughout the world.

Our technology is suitable for both high quality beverage alcohol and fuel ethanol applications.

Our full range of services range from feasibility studies to the execution of lump sum, turnkey projects. This includes the supply of proprietary technology, startup assistance of the ethanol plant, ancillaries and associated off-sites and supporting utilities.

TechnipFMC’s technology covers the following major process steps:

XX Feedstock preparationXX HydrolysisXX FermentationXX Distillation XX DehydrationXX Co-products recovery

Our ethanol process may be coupled with our Hummingbird® technology to transform ethanol to ethylene through dehydration or partially adopted to process cellulosic 2G sugars.

Proven technologyTechnipFMC’s technology has been implemented worldwide with hundreds of references for greenfield and brownfield projects. We offer a very flexible approach for new grass root plants, as well as revamps and debottlenecking of existing facilities or associated product upgrades.

TechnipFMC has optimized design and execution models to propose low-cost solutions to increase the return on investment for our clients. Our proven technology, stemming from our acquisition of Speichim in 2000, has been used in plants for leading manufacturers globally.

Major advantagesOur ethanol technology can process a complete range of first generation raw materials, including sugar cane, sugar beets, molasses, corn, wheat, rice, and starch effluents. Part of our technology can also be used for second generation cellulosic ethanol production.

Our exclusive design for static column trays enables the production of very high-quality products. Our technology also offers an energy efficient process by optimizing the steam consumption.

Additional benefits include:

XX Optimum product yieldsXX Low energy consumption with a high level

of heat integrationXX Water recycling and effluent valorizationXX High quality beverage alcoholXX By-product recovery

Sugar producing agricultural products: beets, sugar cane…

Starchy agricultural products: cereals, cassava… Cattle feed,

fertilizer, solid fuel

Lignocellulosic materials: straw, wood waste, bagasse…

1. Hydrolysis: converts the starch contained in the cereals into fermentable sugar

2. Fermentation: converts the sugar to alcohol using yeast

3. Distillation: separate ethanol from other elements contained in the fermented product

4. Dehydration: produces fuel grade ethanol

5. Pre-treatment: breakdown of lignocellulosic biomass to allow enzymatic hydrolysis
