Coordinated acetator expansion with VOC recovery, clarification, cooling, utilities and loadout so process capacity could grow as an integrated system.
Expanded vinegar-conversion throughput by approximately 5.8M grain gallons per year through acetator capacity, utility upgrades, and aligned upstream and downstream process coordination.
Engineering scope: Acetation systems, centrifuge-based wine clarification, ceramic vinegar polishing, chiller and cooling coordination, VOC control, tanker loadout.
Supported approximately 5.8M grain gallons/year of additional vinegar-conversion throughput. VOC-scrubber engineering used a 75% capture/recovery objective within the scrubber-system boundary. Loadout engineering recorded 500 GPM and 99.9% filling accuracy.

Acetator Expansion and VOC-Recovery Project Family
Full lifecycle project ownership
Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.
Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.
Coordinated process equipment, seven foundations and more than 30 instrumentation components with PLC and HMI requirements. Connected chemical-demand modeling, tanker transfer and upstream and downstream capacity so that the expansion supported a usable production system rather than an isolated vessel addition.
