ETHANOL / BIOFUELS CASE STUDY Corn, and especially wheat, present a challenge for conventional methods of water removal from thin stillage to produce DDGS. The viscosity of the stillage dramatically increases as the concentration factor becomes higher. Falling film evaporators, normally used for initial concentration of the stillage prior to final drying, experience issues when reaching 2030% total solids (TS). This results in fouling of the he
