Client
The Glenmorangie Distillery, owned by Paris based Louis Vuitton Malletier Holdings (LVMH), have completed construction of a new waste to energy AD plant at their whisky distillation exemplar site in Tain, Scotland.
The distillery currently produces approx 4-5 million litres per annum (MLA) of whisky spirit and operates all year on a 24 hour, seven day a week basis.
This AD waste to energy project is considered a flagship development for the LVMH Group and the UK distillery industry.
Project requirements
Wastewater treatment to cater for current and future production demand, providing low cost energy to heat the stills and meet both compliance and group sustainability targets.
Treated biogas from the plant is burnt in a biogas boiler and gases produced from the treatment process are scrubbed to minimise potential odour sources.
Treated effluent from the new plant continues to be discharged to the Dornoch Firth under licence.
