In Biorefining, Bespoke Processes Call for Custom Valve Solutions

Biorefining is a rapidly evolving segment that utilizes a variety of feedstocks and processes to create bioproducts (energy, materials, and chemicals). Unlike conventional chemical and oil & gas processes that have developed standard approaches over time, each biorefinery may have its own unique and proprietary manufacturing process to transform feedstock(s) into finished products.

Bespoke processes often call for custom valve solutions that require careful evaluation and selection; especially for valves that are critical to plant performance and application reliability. It is therefore crucial to involve trusted and experienced valve suppliers at the onset of the engineering process.

The best time to engage with a valve supplier is as early as the small-scale pilot plant stage; at this stage decisions that will impact the full-scale plant are made. Partnering with the right supplier early on will help operators prepare to scale up to commercial plant size.
