JW has consolidated its position as a leader in the Hydrated Fuel Ethanol industry, having successfully developed more than 65 operational plants that collectively produce an impressive 35 million liters/day. This expertise distinguishes JW in both national and international markets, where its products are designed in accordance with the standards established by the ANP (National Petroleum Agency), and are characterized by a customized approach to meet the specific needs of each client.
The technology is versatile enough to cover a wide range of ethanol concentrations in fermentation, from the lowest to the highest levels. Production capacities vary significantly, ranging from 90,000 liters/day to 1,300,000 liters/day, demonstrating the adaptability of JW's designs to meet the diverse demands of the market.
One of the distinctive features of JW equipment is the option of indirect heating in the Stripping Columns, using thermosiphon or falling film evaporators. This approach not only improves process efficiency but also results in a notable reduction in vinasse volume extraction, contributing to more sustainable and environmentally responsible practices.
Our projects are adaptable to different operating conditions, capable of operating under both atmospheric pressure and vacuum.
Atmospheric pressure projects are characterized by lower investment costs, fractional extraction, and greater operational flexibility. Vacuum projects offer savings in steam consumption, reduced equipment fouling, and the ability to operate at lower temperatures.
This versatility highlights JW's ability to provide customized solutions that balance efficiency, economy, and sustainability for its clients.
