SPOTLIGHT | FLUID QUIP TECHNOLOGIES: From Corn To Cash: How FQT’s Integrated Platform Maximizes DCO Yield

Distillers corn oil (DCO) has become one of the most valuable co-products in ethanol production. Efficient recovery not only drives incremental revenue but also improves overall plant efficiency and throughput. Unlocking the full potential of DCO requires a deep understanding of a plant’s mechanical, chemical, and process dynamics from corn intake to final separation.

At Fluid Quip Technologies (FQT), we approach oil recovery with a modular, integrated strategy, deploying technologies that complement each other across the ethanol production process. Most improvements come from a one-time capital investment rather than recurring chemical or energy costs, making the approach both cost-effective and scalable.
