Boiler Protection for Ethanol and Biofuel Production

For 80+ years, Ecolab has worked in thousands of boiler plants supporting the production of safe, reliable and cost-effective steam. Our corrosion stress monitor responds to preboiler corrosion stress in real time, delivering the correct dose of oxygen scavenger or passivator. Our 3D TRASAR™ Boiler System then uses fluorescence technology to prevent scale formation inside your boiler. It also identifies potential causes of system variability and abnormal conditions, making it a powerful diagnostic tool.

Optimized Ethanol Yield with Trimeta® Cleaning Program for Fermentation

The Ecolab Trimeta® Cleaning Program is a complete clean-in-place ethanol processing technology. It's designed to remove organic and inorganic soil in a CO2 rich environment, and it's compatible with carbon steel components and helps inhibit corrosion. The result? A lower volume of chemicals recycled into fermentation.

Trial customers achieved increased ethanol output, improved cleaning and better chemistry compatibility.

Industrial Cooling Water Systems

Corrosion, scaling, fouling and biological contamination are threats to your industrial cooling tower and closed-loop efficiency. Nalco Water helps you answer those threats – and prioritize biofuel production efficiency – with cooling water treatment solutions including chemicals, equipment, automation and software. Our solutions are designed to safely optimize cooling system performance while conserving water and minimizing waste.

Reducing the Cost of Sugar and Ethanol Production: A Case Study

A Brazilian sugar and ethanol company had tried to reduce operating costs but was constantly paying for plant maintenance and modernization. By partnering with Nalco Water, they achieved a significant reduction in total operating costs and reduced their sulfuric acid consumption by an average of 22% per year.
