3MW Steam boiler at Unigrain, VIC
Unigrain’s oat processing require steam for processing and as a by-product of this processing a large amount of oat hulls is generated. Justsen Pacific installed a boiler to use this waste material as a fuel, meaning Unigrain is able to stay off the gas network completely. Using biomass has thus saved Unigrain a massive amount of money compared to the expense of being on Australia’s gas network.
