Unilever - Ben & Jerry's

Icecream factory to derive green energy with BIOPAQ^®AFR

Consumer good producer Unilever has a Sustainable Living Plan aimed at reducing the production of waste and the consumption of water and energy.

Unilever and Paques started the construction of a BIOPAQ^®AFR at Ben & Jerry’s ice cream factory in Hellendoorn, the Netherlands. In the bio-digestion process, waste products that are released during the production of ice cream are converted into energy. The produced biogas will be desulphurised with THIOPAQ^®. The bio-digester will cover 40% of the ice cream factory’s green energy requirements. The bio-digester is expected to become operational mid 2011.
