Carbon Capturing Craft Breweries

We can afford it

Blindman Brewing is a central Alberta company. Its expertise lies in creating craft beer. However, the brewery is investing in a CO2-capturing device to become a carbon-neutral brewery, thereby adding an eco-conscious skill to its list of specialties.

The craft beer company captures the CO2 it emits during its fermentation process and uses it to carbonate its delicious beer. During fermentation, the yeast devours any sugars in the mix to produce alcohol. This process also creates CO2 as a byproduct. Blindman Brewing decided to use its carbon emissions to its advantage to limit its environmental footprint. Once the CO2 is captured, it is compressed into carbonation and added to the brews as they run through canning lines.
