50 BREWING BEVERAGE INDUSTRIES BUSINESS Resources Aquabio plant for Glenlivet Aquabio has won a prestigious 1 million contract to supply a cutting edge sustainable wastewater treatment plant for The Glenlivet distillery in Moray Scotland. Aquabio was chosen because of its expertise in the use of state-of-the-art proven membrane bioreactor technology to treat the effluent from the distillery. The new plant will enable an increase in capacity to handle the growth of the distillery as well as improvements in discharge. The company has a number of notable industry successes including the completion of a 07 MLD wastewater treatment and water reuse plant for Shepherd Neame Brewery in Kent. Aquabio uses its own AMBR LE low energy ultrafiltration membrane bioreactor treatment technology which has been successfully operated for effluent treatment and water reuse in numerous applications in the UK and overseas since 2001. The AMBR LE process involves the use of back flushable cross-flow type membranes for the separation of biomass from the treated water which guarantees high flux rates with optimised economic and reliable operation. Use of ultrafiltration membranes provides a complete barrier to suspended solids thus ensuring high quality final effluent guaranteed for watercourse discharge and providing ideal water quality for downstream reverse osmosis treatment to deliver high grade clean water. The modular design of the AMBR LE system allows scope for additional plant to be added at later date to meet future demands thus optimising both capital and operational expenditure whilst maintaining the potential for future capacity. www.aquabio.co.uk For more information visit Glenlivet distillery ESOS 30 did not submit The numbers are in from sustainability experts Carbon Architectures 2015 ESOS Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme campaign. Of the household names and high-energy users who approached BFBi members Carbon Architecture 1929 GWh of energy was audited equalling an energy spend of 88 million. The average saving across all enterprises audited was 19 equalling 14.2 million of realistic savings identified. The alarming aspect to this said Carbon Architecture MD Will Todd is that a third of firms required to assess their energy use and submit their compliance audit failed to do so. Dr Steve Priddy PhD Head of Research at London School of Business Finance said It is completely unacceptable for organisations to fail to comply with ESOS and their stakeholders will rightly be concerned. One of the contributing factors is the lack of internal skill and knowledge in the requirements for ESOS compliance. Carbon Architecture have led the way in assisting many diverse organisation to attain ESOS compliance added Dr Priddy and it is very clear from the results of their efforts that significant financial and efficiency savings are being achieved as a result. The government wont be idle in pursuing late-adopters it has a number of formal options and penalties that it will apply to enterprises failing to comply with ESOS from statutory enforcement notices and suspension or revocation of environmental permits to injunctions Fixed Penalty Notices and prosecution. Theres also a name and shame policy where the government will issue press releases and other publicity relating to offences and offenders as well as seeking to recover the costs of investigation and enforcement proceedings together with the full cost of remedial works in accordance with the polluter pays principle. Businesses that have successfully completed ESOS included many of the top brewers plus global drinks giant Red Bull which appointed Carbon Architecture to assess their UK operation and make sure they achieved energy management compliance before the UK government deadline of December 2015.
