Do you handle CPCB online effluent monitoring?

Yes. We install and configure field analyzers, PLC, and telemetry stack to push real-time effluent parameters to state and central pollution control board servers per the prescribed protocol.

Can distillation column control reduce specific steam consumption?

Properly tuned column control — reboiler, reflux, feed pre-heat — typically reduces steam per litre by 4–8% versus operator-only running.

Do you support batch records for excise compliance?

Yes — our distillery SCADA records every batch with timestamped operator actions, recipe versions, and CIP cycles. Tamper-evident and exportable.

Industries / Distillery

Automation for Distilleries.

Fermentation control, distillation column automation, ETP and molasses handling. Whether you’re running grain-based or molasses-based, attached to a sugar mill or standalone, the automation stakes are similar: keep the columns stable, the temperature curves clean, and the batch traceability audit-ready.

The problem space

Distillery automation has high stakes per loop.

Yield in a distillery is set by a small number of well-tuned control loops — column temperatures, reflux, reboiler steam, fermentation pH and dissolved oxygen. A 2% deviation in column control compounds across a season into significant lost spirit.

Layered on top: state excise reporting, ETP discharge monitoring (with online effluent meters), and CIP traceability. We handle all of it within one PLC/SCADA architecture.

Typical pain points
