1G Ethanol

In strategic collaboration with VOGELBUSCH Biocommodities, Austria, Thermax offers integrated, end-to-end technology solutions for ethanol production from both starchy and sugary feedstocks, including grains, rice, wheat, corn, barley, sorghum, millets, and molasses. Leveraging world-class 1st generation (1G) technology, we enable high-performance and cost-effective ethanol extraction from surplus or damaged agricultural produce. 

Thermax delivers integrated EPC solutions for ethanol and cogeneration projects, tailored to specific plant requirements. As an OEM for key utilities such as boilers, water treatment systems, condensate polishing units (CPU), evaporators, effluent treatment plants (ETP), and mechanical vapour recompression (MVR) systems, we bring a distinct advantage in designing highly optimised and cost-effective solutions. Our turnkey scope spans the entire value chain—from fermentation, distillation, and dehydration to seamless utility integration, ensuring efficient operations with a strong focus on sustainability and zero-waste performance.
