Project Forth, Fife
Project Status
Current Project
Project Outline
Water Treatment Works at the Cameronbridge Distillery, to improve the quality of the effluent before it is pumped into the Firth of Forth and utilise the Biogas biproduct to generate electricity.
Description
bioenergy plant that will generate energy from by-products produced at its Cameron Bridge Distillery in Fife, Scotland
Full Description
Around 90,000 tons of waste products per year will generate 5.5 MW of electricity. Biomass removed from the distillery effluent—a mixture of wheat, malted barley, yeast, and water—will burn to generate heat and energy for the distillery. The remaining water will go in an anaerobic digester to produce biogas. The project should generate 80% of the electricity and 98% of the steam needed to run the distillery, and clean up the effluent discharge from the production process.
