Drystill is a developer and supplier of advanced, chemical separation technology. The company has developed a revolutionary, low-energy, separation process which, if applied to biofuel production, offers opportunities to significantly increase yield, and reduce operating and capital costs. This technical breakthrough can lead to a paradigm shift in biofuel production methods in the future.Drystill's technology can be applied to 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation biofuels, and to existing and new plants. The technology scales readily upwards and downwards to meet unique user needs. It may also be applied in other industries such as food and beverages, and specialty chemicals.At heart of Drystill's technology is a proprietary , novel apparatus called a stripper/ absorption module ("SAM"). A SAM performs two important functions in the mainstream, production process. Firstly, it continuously removes ethanol from a weak fermentation broth - as it is produced - without harming the enzymes and yeast. Secondly, it transfers fermented ethanol to a non-fouling, absorbent fluid, from which it can be more economically distilled.Users of Drystill's technology will enjoy substantial improvements in their economic returns.
