MBAA Rocky Mountain District g The demand for fossil fuels is growing with increasing global population and growth in consumption. g In spite of falling new oil discoveries, demand for oil continues to grow all the time. g Since 1985 the volume of oil consumption has outstripped new discoveries. g DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC g Oil Production is becoming increasingly difficult, so the price of oil & natural gas will increase even more over the long term. Extract yield used to be the critical cost factor for a brewery in the past, in future it will be the Cost of Energy.

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Mash Tun Design – Using Recovered Energy The mash is heated up with energy obtained from the first stage of the wort cooler. - Retrofit Existing Mash Tun - Jacket would require separate hot water and steam sections - Compared to steam, difference in temperature between heating medium and the mash is relatively low. - Use of pillow plates enables heat transfer rates of 1 K/min based on appropriate jacket dimensioning. - DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC - Flow of hot water to the heating surfaces. fed from the top to the bottom through the pillow plates, creating the effect of a counter flow heat exchanger.

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Equipment and technology g Energy Storage Tank Design One Storage Tank can be used jointly by both the Equi.

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Figures, data and facts g Peak loads for the steam boiler system With more than eight brews per day production, the heating up involved in the mashing process and the boiling of the wort inevitably run parallel to each other. - The steam boiler system must be designed for the maximum possible peak load. - DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC - With the energy required for the mashing process being supplied by Equi.

DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC Saving Energy within the Wort Boiling Process

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Effect of Wort Heating and Boiling on Total Energy Demand g Wort boiling represents one of the greatest individual energy consumers in a brewery. g State of the art brewery - wort boiling can represent up to 30% of the total heat demand. DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC → Large savings potential available

- During the wort boiling process the free DMS must be expelled to such an extent that the taste threshold value of 100 ppb will not be exceeded during the reincrease in the whirlpool - High temperatures separate more DMS precursor, but free DMS is no longer reduced because there is no movement / circulation DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC - The content of free DMS remains constant in the cooled wort. free DMS MBAA Rocky Mountain District Boiling Whirlpool Cooling 100 ppb Standard Time Energy

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Equipment and Technology of STROMBOLI g The Stromboli boil system has two circulation circuits: the natural circulation of the boiler and the pump circulation. g The boiling process is divided into three phases: - Phase 1: Natural circulation by energy supply and pump circulation - Phase 2: Pump circulation with reduced energy supply Phase 3: Natural circulation by energy supply and pump circulation - DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC è The circulation of the wort can be separated from the total evaporation. With the variation in the pump speed and phase duration new parameters are available to control the boiling process. Natural circulation Pump circulation

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Stromboli wort boiling process - - - Stromboli allows the circulation of the wort to be separated from the evaporation In phase 2 of the boiling process the wort is circulated with an external pump and the Venturi nozzle only The Stromboli wort boiling process therefore allows a reduction in the free DMS content with reduced energy input free DMS g Whirlpool Boiling Cooling 100 ppb Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 Stromboli DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC Standard Time Energy

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Venturi effect as key to success The core of the Stromboli internal boiler is a Venturi nozzle installed above the pipe bundle. g Driven by an external pump, the wort is conveyed via the central ascending pipe. This creates a vacuum on the outside of the nozzle which supports the flow of wort in the pipe bundle. g At a circulation rate with the 8 -fold amount of wort to be boiled per hour, almost the same circulation rate is also generated by the Venturi nozzle. g DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC g System design means 4 m/s is the maximum speed for the wort flow. Up to 30 Brews between CIPs

DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC Energy Savings using Wort Stripping Technology

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Wort Stripping Wort quality - Wort has valuable substances but also some undesired components - If certain levels of these components are exceeded then a loss in quality will result - Wort stripping offers the abilty to remove undesired flavors from wort in a controlled way g DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC g Energy saving - Not only will quality improve, wort stripping also provides the possibility to reduce total evaporation and energy consumption during wort boiling step è Stripping is a technology combining classical quality with modern brewing processes

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Stripping enables a reduction of free DMS content below threshold even if boiling time is reduced from 60 to 40 minutes g Wort stripping can be used for: - reducing the boiling time, i. e. saving energy, with constant wort quality or - reducing the percentage of free DMS with constant boiling time g With this, wort stripping allows constant boiling processes with different raw material qualities g Frees DMS* DMS - Indicator for the wort quality 60 minutes boiling time 40 minutes boiling time + stripping 100 µg/l Boiling * Simplified display as linear function DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC è Whirlpool Cooling time Wort stripping allows the reduction of free DMS straight before wort cooling

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Equipment and Technology - Boreas Spin injector - Wort is set into rotation via the spin injector. Using the appropriate speed angle, the wort is applied continuously already in the cover and a turbulent falling film runs down on the container wall. - The change of velocity at the outlet of the spin injector leads to a pressure drop in the wort layer, which supports the stripping effect. - The expelled free DMS is led to atmosphere through the inner space of the spin injector. è DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC g The product path can be used for cleaning agents, no further installations are required.

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Partial pressure as key to success The total pressure in the stripping vessel is based on the partial pressures of the individual phases (shown here in a simplified way as H 2 O and free DMS) g Depending on the temperature there will be a balance between steam and free DMS in the gas phase. This will be proportional to the percentage of distribution between the individual partial pressures. g Until the point of saturation there will be a constant evaporation of water and free DMS g 1000 vessel pressure 95° = 150 mbar DMS + 850 mbar H 2 O DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC Wort H 2 O Free DMS

MBAA Rocky Mountain District Partial pressure as key to success g The evaporation of DMS is proportional to the creation of vapor during turbulent wort flow within the stripping vessel Wort inlet Evaporation enthalpy means the intensity of the generation of water vapour happens proportionally to the temperature difference between the wort inlet and outlet g In the gas “zone” of the stripping vessel a balance point between vapor and free DMS is created. By the injection of strip gas the saturated gas is displaced continuously g DV-d 34 -p 0006 -1 03/07 CC g Strip gas keeps the driving concentration gradient between wort film and gas zone at a constant level, so that the reproduction of water vapor and with this, the reduction of free DMS can be controlled Wort outlet Strip gas (CO 2, N 2, air) Water steam and free DMS Strip gas, water steam and free DMS
