Molasses Extract Plant
Lesaffre Asia Pacific
Melbourne
-
The first of its kind in Australia, the molasses extract plant has the dual benefit of collecting the nutrient-rich derivatives produced through yeast production, which can then be used as food-grade mineral fertiliser for industrial agriculture, as well as significantly reducing the colour and viscosity of the water that is discharged to Melbourne's Eastern Treatment Plant.

Straw Energy Feasibility
Future Farms Tasmania

-
The Future Farms Project explored the use of waste crop residue for bioenergy production.
The project undertook an economic and environmental feasibility of ‘at source’ biomass fuel production from a range of crop residues, focused on those that do not hold value for stock feed or would otherwise be burned in field.
Straw pellets produced by the Krone Premos 5000 were trialled at biomass boilers at Beaufort and Skipton hospitals.
