GHO 1000L indicates a distillation unit model GHO with a nominal working capacity of 1000 liters per batch (typically referring to the boiler or pot size). Actual throughput depends on feedstock, fermentation strength and operating cycle.
This distillery is designed to work with starchy and sugary feedstocks including cassava, potato, corn, wheat and sugar (molasses, cane sugar, or sugar syrups). Pre-treatment (gelatinization, saccharification) and fermentation are required for starchy materials.
Yes — the main contact parts are stainless steel. Standard configurations typically use SS304, with SS316 available on request for enhanced corrosion resistance in more aggressive processes.
With a properly operated rectification column you can typically obtain azeotropic ethanol around 95–96% ABV at atmospheric pressure. To produce absolute (anhydrous) ethanol higher than 99% requires an additional dehydration step such as molecular sieves or other drying technology.
No — this listing refers to distillation/distillery equipment. Fermentation must be performed separately in fermenters; however, we can supply or recommend compatible fermenters and turnkey fermentation solutions if required.
Common heating methods include steam heating (via an external boiler), direct electric heating, or thermal oil. Steam heating is most common for industrial ethanol distillation for its even heat distribution and efficiency.
The GHO 1000L unit is typically configured as a batch distillation system (1000 L still pot). Continuous options or hybrid configurations may be available depending on production requirements.
Control systems range from manual valves and gauges to semi-automatic PLC control with touch-screen HMI, automatic reflux control, temperature and level sensors. Specify your preferred control package when ordering.
Typical utilities include steam (or electric power/thermal oil), cooling water for condensers, compressed air (optional), and suitable drainage. Installation also requires a level concrete foundation, ventilation and access for maintenance. Exact requirements depend on the configuration and local codes.
Routine maintenance includes inspecting gaskets and seals, cleaning condensers and columns, checking pumps and valves, verifying sensors and controls, and periodic passivation/cleaning of stainless surfaces. A regular CIP (clean-in-place) program is recommended for sanitary operation.
Yes — we typically offer spare parts kits, operator and maintenance training, and on-site commissioning/start-up services as part of the supply contract or as optional services.
Standard safety features include pressure relief valves, temperature and level alarms, emergency stop, and ventilation requirements. Explosion-proof electricals and additional safety interlocks can be provided to meet local regulations.
We can supply equipment to meet common standards such as CE and ISO. Food-grade or beverage-grade options and material traceability certificates are available on request. Local licensing and regulatory compliance for alcohol production remain the customer's responsibility.
Lead time depends on configuration, material choices and order volume; a typical lead time is 6–12 weeks. Shipping, customs clearance and on-site installation timelines vary by destination — contact sales with your delivery address for a precise quotation.
Yes — we offer customization (column height/plates, condensers, material upgrades, automation packages) and larger or multiple-unit configurations for higher capacity. Tell us your target output and feedstock and we will propose an appropriate system.
