Ethanol

As one of the nation’s leading water treatment providers, US Water Services’ presence in the ethanol industry cannot go unnoticed. Our company has been responsible for the successful water system start-ups for over 80% of dry grind ethanol plants in the United States since 2002.

Few other industries rely on water as much as the ethanol industry and U.S. Water Services is prepared to help ethanol producers face numerous challenges as the industry continues to grow. Challenges such as state and federal water discharge restrictions, shortages of available water resources and the increased sizes of plants are making water one of the most important considerations in ethanol plant construction or expansion.

U.S. Water Services is on the cutting-edge of water treatment technology. Our company is striving to address discharge regulation issues with an emphasis on environmental stewardship. Our top priority is to include client designs for water recycle and the elimination of water discharges wherever possible. These are site specific, but require a comprehensive understanding of process design and water chemistry.
