On November 1st, the distillation tower of Iran’s first biorefinery, completely constructed inside the country, was installed in this plant which is located in the western Kermanshah province.
With a refining capacity of 1.6 million liters per day, this power plant is going to produce 200,000 liters of ethanol and other by-products on a daily basis.
In this project, Monenco Iran was responsible for Project Management Engineering for all phases of project such as Feasibility Study, Basic Design, Details Design, Procumbent, Construction, Pre-commissioning, Commissioning, Test Production and Steady Production services.
All the engineering processes of constructing the distillation tower of this refinery, including the design and implementation, have been carried out by local experts.
A biorefinery is a facility that integrates biomass conversion processes and equipment to produce fuels, power, and value-added chemicals from biomass. A biorefinery is analogous to today's petroleum refinery, which produces multiple fuels and products from petroleum.
