BREWERY COGENERATION PLANT

B2Q worked with local brewers to design a cogeneration plant. A feasibility study resulted in the recommendation of a 250 kW, natural-gas fired cogeneration plant. The proposed system uses recovered thermal energy to heat hot water during the brewing process. All processes were studied in order to seamlessly integrate the cogeneration plant into existing operations. Proposed controls allow the CHP to be the primary source of heat for brewing while meeting sensitive temperature requirements. B2Q subsequently provided engineering, design, and construction administration for the project’s implementation.
