Antimicrobial Solutions for Ethanol & Sugar Industry

High-Performance Control with Virginiamycin & PBW Blend

Maximize Fermentation Efficiency. Minimize Losses.

In modern ethanol and sugar production, microbial contamination—especially from lactic acid bacteria—can significantly reduce yield, increase acidity, and disrupt fermentation.

Our advanced antimicrobial solutions combine the proven power of Virginiamycin with innovative PBW Blend technology to deliver superior bacterial control and consistent performance.

Virginiamycin – Proven Antibiotic for Fermentation Control

What is Virginiamycin?

Virginiamycin is a highly effective antibiotic widely used in ethanol fermentation to control Gram-positive bacteria such as Lactobacillus species.

Key Benefits:

✅ Rapid bacterial inhibition
✅ Improves ethanol yield
✅ Reduces lactic acid formation
✅ Works at low dosage (1–3 ppm)
✅ Enhances yeast performance

Applications:

  • Molasses and juice treatment

  • Fermentation tanks

  • Continuous fermentation systems

How It Works:

Virginiamycin inhibits bacterial protein synthesis, effectively stopping bacterial growth without harming yeast at recommended levels.

PBW Blend – Next-Generation Antimicrobial Solution

What is PBW Blend?

PBW Blend is a specialized, non-antibiotic antimicrobial formulation designed to control contamination while supporting sustainable and residue-free ethanol production.

Key Advantages:

✅ Antibiotic-free solution
✅ No resistance development
✅ Safe for yeast and fermentation
✅ Reduces dependency on antibiotics
✅ Environmentally friendly

Typical Composition (May Include):

  • Organic acids

  • Natural antimicrobial compounds

  • Fermentation enhancers
