What is the Function of a CO2 Recovery System?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a natural byproduct of the fermentation process in brewing. While it is essential for carbonating beer and maintaining the desired flavor profile, excess CO2 is often released into the atmosphere, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. This is where a CO2 recovery system comes into play.
The primary function of a CO2 recovery system is to capture, purify, and store the CO2 generated during fermentation. This recovered CO2 can then be reused within the brewery for various purposes, such as carbonating beer, purging tanks, and packaging. By recycling CO2, breweries can significantly reduce their reliance on externally sourced CO2, which is not only costly but also has a higher carbon footprint due to transportation and production.
Moreover, the implementation of a CO2 recovery system aligns with the global push towards sustainability. By minimizing CO2 emissions, breweries can reduce their environmental impact and contribute to the fight against climate change. This is particularly important in today’s market, where consumers are increasingly favoring brands that demonstrate a commitment to environmental responsibility.
What Equipment is Included in a CO2 Recovery System?
A CO2 recovery system is a complex assembly of specialized equipment designed to efficiently capture, purify, and store CO2. Tiantai Company’s CO2 recovery systems are engineered with precision and incorporate the latest technological advancements to ensure optimal performance. The key components of a CO2 recovery system include:
CO2 Collection System: This system is responsible for capturing the CO2 gas produced during fermentation. It typically includes a collection hood or dome that is placed over the fermentation tank to gather the escaping CO2.
Gas Compressor: Once the CO2 is collected, it is compressed to increase its pressure. This step is crucial for the subsequent purification process, as it ensures that the CO2 is in the right state for effective filtration.
Purification Unit: The purification unit is the heart of the CO2 recovery system. It removes impurities such as water vapor, alcohol, and other contaminants from the CO2 gas. This is achieved through a series of filters, dryers, and scrubbers that ensure the recovered CO2 meets the highest quality standards.
Storage Tanks: After purification, the CO2 is stored in high-pressure tanks until it is needed for use in the brewery. These tanks are designed to safely hold large volumes of CO2, ensuring a steady supply for various brewing processes.
Control Panel: The control panel is the brain of the CO2 recovery system. It allows operators to monitor and control the entire process, from collection to storage. Advanced control panels, like those offered by Tiantai Company, are equipped with user-friendly interfaces and automation features that simplify operation and enhance efficiency.
Piping and Valves: A network of pipes and valves connects the various components of the CO2 recovery system, ensuring a seamless flow of CO2 gas throughout the process. These components are designed to withstand high pressures and are made from materials that are resistant to corrosion.

How to Use a CO2 Recovery System?
Using a CO2 recovery system may seem daunting at first, but with the right guidance and equipment, it becomes an integral part of the brewing process. Tiantai Company provides comprehensive support to ensure that breweries can seamlessly integrate and operate their CO2 recovery systems. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use a CO2 recovery system:
Installation: The first step is to install the CO2 recovery system in your brewery. Tiantai Company offers professional installation services, ensuring that the system is set up correctly and in compliance with all safety standards. The system should be strategically placed near the fermentation tanks to minimize the distance the CO2 gas needs to travel.
Collection: Once the system is installed, the CO2 collection process begins. As the fermentation tanks produce CO2, the gas is captured by the collection hood and directed into the CO2 recovery system. It is essential to ensure that the collection hood is properly sealed to prevent any gas from escaping.
Compression: The collected CO2 is then compressed using the gas compressor. This step increases the pressure of the CO2, preparing it for the purification process. The compressor should be regularly maintained to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
Purification: The compressed CO2 is passed through the purification unit, where impurities are removed. This step is critical to ensure that the recovered CO2 is of the highest quality and suitable for reuse in the brewery. Regular maintenance of the purification unit, including filter replacement, is necessary to maintain its efficiency.
Storage: The purified CO2 is stored in high-pressure tanks until it is needed. These tanks should be inspected regularly to ensure they are in good condition and can safely hold the CO2. Proper storage is essential to prevent any leaks or losses.
Reuse: When the brewery requires CO2 for carbonation, purging, or packaging, the recovered CO2 is drawn from the storage tanks and used as needed. This step eliminates the need to purchase external CO2, resulting in significant cost savings.
Monitoring and Maintenance: Throughout the entire process, it is crucial to monitor the system’s performance and conduct regular maintenance. Tiantai Company’s advanced control panels make it easy to monitor the system, and their team of experts is always available to provide support and maintenance services.
