LiqTech to supply filtration system to world’s largest bioethanol plant

LiqTech International, a Denmark-based clean technology company, has entered into a letter of intent (LOI) to supply a $1.8 million (€1.6m) filtration system for a 100,000tpy Chinese bioethanol plant.

The bioethanol plant, to be located in Harbin, Heilongjiang, China, is scheduled to be in operation in 2017 and when completed it will be the largest bioethanol production facility in the world.

The LOI is subject to execution of definitive documents and financing of the project from a Chinese investment bank.

The filtration system is based on LiqTech’s ceramic membranes and its newly developed reverse osmosis systems.

"We have invested significant resources in China over the past 12 months. There is a great demand for water treatment systems in China and we are currently working on several other opportunities for drinking water treatment, heavy metal removal, and industrial applications,” Sune Mathiesen, LiqTech CEO, said.

Torben A. Bonde, CEO at Heilongjiang ZhongDan JianJe BioEnergy Co., said: "We have searched the market for a filtration technology suitable for our water, which contains high amounts of particles. The LiqTech ceramic membranes give us a perfect pre-filtration before our reverse osmosis process, and the combination of high flux and the robustness of the membrane gives us the lowest operating expense of any available technology.
