Product Description:

IBI’s Eco-Friendly Defoamer is a scientifically formulated anti-foaming solution designed for use in fermentation processes involving molasses and grain-based substrates. Unlike conventional defoamers, which often contain impurities and lack a sound technical basis, IBI’s defoamer offers a clean, efficient, and environmentally responsible solution that significantly improves alcohol recovery and reduces operational waste.

Fermentation foaming is a common issue that not only hampers process efficiency but also leads to excessive consumption of defoamers, increased BOD (Biological Oxygen Demand) and COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) levels, and a higher microbial load. IBI’s advanced formulation addresses the root causes of foaming while minimizing negative side effects.

Key Advantages:

• ✔ Efficient Foam Control: Effectively breaks and prevents foam formation during molasses and grain fermentation.

• ✔ Eco-Friendly Composition: Free from harmful by-products that typically arise from sulphated castor oil (TRO).

• ✔ Improved Alcohol Recovery: Reduces sugar loss due to foam overflow and microbial contamination.

• ✔ Reduces BOD & COD: Minimizes environmental impact by lowering waste discharge values.

• ✔ Non-Corrosive & Equipment Friendly: Does not form corrosive or slime-inducing by-products.

• ✔ Stable Under Variable Conditions: Performs reliably across a wide range of input solids and temperature variations.

Conventional Alternatives and Their Drawbacks:

Traditional defoamers such as Turkey Red Oil (TRO)—made by sulfating castor oil—often introduce numerous impurities like:

• Fatty acids (e.g., ricinoleic acid)

• Sodium soaps

• Unreacted triglycerides

• Glycerol, mono/di-glycerides

• Sulfated and sulfonated derivatives

These side products are non-biodegradable, increase microbial growth, and negatively affect fermentation efficiency, leading to reduced alcohol yield and increased pollution parameters.

Conclusion:

IBI’s modern eco-friendly defoamer offers a technologically advanced and sustainable alternative to conventional products. It ensures cleaner operations, better alcohol recovery, and compliance with global environmental standards.
