Ethanol Applications

Hellan Strainers are the “strainer of choice” in many ethanol plants throughout the United States.  Hellan strainers are commonly installed in the slurry process stream between the Cooker and the Fermenter.   Hellan strainers are proven to reduce labor and maintenance costs.  See for yourself!

Hellan Strainers are used to capture corn slurry from caustic solution during cleaning of the slurry tank.			Ethanol plants in the United States, depending on flow,use a Hellan 6”, 8” or 10” motorized strainer downstream of the slurry tank or “licking” system.These strainers are used to protect equipment downstream such as plate & frame heat exchangers.
