Whether you’re looking to build from the ground-up, diagnose and assess your current processes, or implement targeted modifications, our engineering experts provide industry-leading support. As your partner, we help you realize improvements at scale to meet the latest industry standards and set new performance records.

From expert planning with the end goal in mind to close progress monitoring, project management services are important for helping you meet complex targets. When it comes to critical operations and industry-specific challenges, effective project execution is key to your success. Our project management services ensure that your company is appropriately moving forward and meeting business objectives.

Our expert team of engineers and construction professionals are experienced in working with industry-specific regulations and strict hygienic standards. Our construction engineering experts possess a strong understanding of the regulations that govern building facilities and equipment in the pharmaceutical, biotech, nuclear, laboratory, cannabis or food and beverage industries. Construction in these spaces often includes highly specialized materials, equipment, and methodologies. Our team helps build facilities using key skill sets and specialized knowledge to ensure your success into the future.

Distillation Expertise

EPSILON LIMA has years of operations and design experience with a wide variety of distillation systems. Many of these systems were unusual in some way (azeotropic, reactive, feeds containing solid particulates, etc.). Our distillation expertise has obvious direct application to producers of food grade products requiring flash distillation or multistage fractionation to purify products such as edible oils, alcoholic beverages, etc. EPSILON LIMA can simulate your existing system and use this as a baseline from which to explore and recommend a variety of process improvements. We are experienced in reboiler design, heat transfer, and vacuum distillation systems, all of which can play a key role in minimizing product degradation in the distillation process.

How We Work

We depend on our customers to present the product idea; they know their markets and their processes. EPSILON LIMA adds the food and beverage process engineering expertise to translate the idea into reality. The equipment we design and specify is used for long-term mass production; the process must therefore be safe, clean, cost-effective, and robust to produce a consistent quality product.

We go about it as follows:

Process Optimization & Product Quality

The focus is on improved technologies for the production of better consumer foods on an economically viable commercial scale. PROCESS can help evaluate operational considerations to improve efficiencies, and to help the client gain a better understanding of the interactions between food products and processes – considerations often overlooked in the past with traditional batch food processes.

Improved Food Process Selection and Design

As food processing has grown in size and complexity, there has been a corresponding trend toward the use of continuous processing, similar in many ways to the continuous processing found in much of the traditional chemical processing world. The demand worldwide for low-cost, efficient process designs has led to many crossovers between food and chemical plant designs.

Hygienic Design and Process Hygiene

As we have seen in recent news, production sanitation, cleanliness, and hygiene are receiving increased emphasis with the various regulatory agencies charged with maintaining the safety of the food chain. The main design activities here concentrate on integration of hygienic measures to improve process sanitation in general, fundamentally sound first principles cleaning procedures, and application of fluid flow principles to improve the hygienic state of process plants.
