McCain Foods Great Britain Selects Eco-Tec for Biogas Purification
Pickering, Ontario/
January 16, 2008
Eco-Tec is proud to announce that it has recently been
awarded the contract for biogas purification by McCain
Foods (GB) Ltd., England. As a socially responsible
company and a highly trusted brand, McCain Foods
practices sustainable agriculture and is implementing
energy efficiency projects at its processing plants
around the world to help in the global quest to improve
the climate.
"Eco-Tec has assisted industries with sustainable
practices for over 37 years, and we are proud to be a
part of McCain Foods' continued strategy for energy
efficiency," stated Carmine Fontana, Eco-Tec VP
Business Development.
As part of its energy efficiency projects, McCain Foods
in Great Britain implemented a waste process that
includes the capture of biogas from anaerobic
digester lagoons, and purifying the gas to produce
electricity. McCain Foods hired Black & Veatch to
conduct an evaluation of available technology and
manage the integration into the planned process.
Compared to competing technologies, Eco-Tec's
patented biogas purification system,
BgPur, was
designed to accommodate McCain's specific
requirements regarding flow rate variations, changes
in pressure, and the system's overall flexibility. With
simple operation and lower operating costs,
Eco-Tec's biogas purification technology was selected.
Eco-Tec was recently awarded the Canadian
Innovation Award for Environmental
Technology, by the
Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters association,
for this biogas technology.
