A Solar Distillery

A Strong Distillery

Abstract machines for the strong evaluation of λ-terms (that is, under abstractions) are a mostly neglected topic, despite their use in the implementation of proof assistants and higher-order logic programming languages. This paper introduces a machine for the simplest form of strong evaluation, leftmost-outermost (call-by-name) evaluation to normal form, proving it correct, complete, and bound...

Anaerobic Treatment of Distillery Wastewater

The estimated global ethanol production in 2009 was about 74 mln m. After fermentation remains waste from bottom of distillation columns, termed stillage. This highly aqueous residue containing organic solubles is considered a troublesome and potentially polluting waste due to its extremely high BOD and COD values. Moreover, for each liter of produced ethanol 8 -15 liters of stillage are genera...

Fodder Yeast Production: a New Approach for Distillery Vinasse Treatment

Cavitationally induced biodegradability enhancement of a distillery wastewater.

Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) was evaluated as a pretreatment option for the complex/recalcitrant biomethanated distillery wastewater (B-DWW). The effect of various process parameters such as inlet pressure, dilution and reaction time on reduction of COD/TOC and enhancement of biodegradability index (BI:BOD(5):COD ratio) of the B-DWW was studied with an aim to maximize the biodegradability index...

Biomethanated Distillery Waste Utilization by Wetland Plant: A New Approach

The conventional treatment of distillery effluent including to secondary biologically treatment leaves excessive residue for disposal in surface water and onto the land. Optimal sub-surface loading of Phragmites karka tolerate distillery waste and achieve sustainable zero discharge. Pilot investigations established that subsurface loading into soil matrix (three part river sand, one part pebble...
