DPhar: SG 1500 HE smart boiler for biotech plant

DPhar strengthened the efficiency, safety, and sustainability of its biotech production plant with a tailor-made SG 1500 HE Smart steam boiler. Equipped with advanced energy recovery, Industry 4.0 connectivity, and smart automation, the system delivers 15 t/h of high-quality steam while minimizing fuel consumption and supporting continuous, reliable fermentation processes.

DPhar: the client

DPhar is a private Italian biotech company specializing in fermentation-based products. Located near Rome and employing around 130 people, the company is committed to technological innovation, environmental sustainability, and high-standard production processes. Through ongoing investments in advanced industrial systems, DPhar continues to expand its capacity and enhance the performance of its integrated biotech operations.

The challenge

DPhar implemented an investment program to modernize the equipment involved in the production processes. This modernization, aimed at increasing the plant’s production capacity, was developed to maximize safety and environmental sustainability.

The solution

We supplied a tailor-made and fully-integrated and interconnected plant composed of:

  • A high-efficiency fire tube steam boiler (HE Smart) equipped with an energy recovery package to minimize fuel consumption, and hardware for 4.0 integration of the production process.
  • A water treatment plant provided by our sister company Cannon Artes. This system was conceived to make water suitable for all uses, minimizing the use of chemicals.

Thanks to the Industry 4.0 hardware and the OptiSpark control system, the steam generator can automatically access Cannon Bono’s support services:

  • OptiSupport for direct remote access of our technicians to the boiler PLC
  • OptiCloud for interconnection to the proprietary cloud.
