More About CPMProven Technology and Powerful Machines for the Ethanol Industry
Industry-Standard Hammermills
The technology in our hammermills that’s served so many others in the grain industries translates perfectly to the dry-grinding needed in ethanol production.
Reputation of “It Just Runs”
No matter your requirements, our equipment is designed to run 24 hours a day providing peace of mind that operations can continue uninterrupted.
Efficient Corn Fractionation
CPM | Crown’s proven corn fractionation process separates the germ and bran from the starch in corn. The germ can then be processed to extract oil using CPM | Crown’s solvent extraction and oil refining technologies. This results in two valuable products: animal feed and edible oil.
Optimizing Ethanol Oil for Biodiesel
CPM | Crown provides equipment and processes to treat crude oil extracted from the back end of a dry-grind ethanol process, making it suitable for use in biodiesel production. Our pretreatment process improves the quality of the oil, ensuring it meets the standards required by most biodiesel plants.
