Steam Drying Kasper Larsen Arne Sloth Jensen Towards CO2 neutral beet sugar production
Future demands from lawmakers etc. • No emissions • Only use CO2 neutral energy sources • Perhaps beets as an energy crop?
Proposals for solutions • Steam dry the beet pulp and burn it • Alternative energy sources • Use MVR, no boiler, big electric consumption. Alternatively all sugar produced from cane. (self-sufficient with energy)

CO2 neutral fuel: • Fuels which have no net greenhouse gas emissions: • Straw • Wood • Sugar beet pulp • Municipal waste • How to use in existing boilers?

Conclusion. • Reduction of CO2 is costly. • Step 1: Steam drying at 250 €/ton CO2/year is cheaper than most other projects • Due to fuel savings, steam dryer will be paid back in 2-8 years • Step 2, make boiler CO2 neutral. • Best option currently seams to be Gasifier. • Steam dryer and MVR is a good solution in stand alone installations.
