<div>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sempre più frequentemente siamo contattati da titolari di aziende agricole, grandi e piccole, incuriositi dall'affascinante mondo degli olii essenziali .....E questo ci fa davvero tanto piacere!</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A seconda dei quantitativi e delle caratteristiche degli olii prodotti, i nostri clienti possono infatti pensare ad introdursi nel mercato cosmetico, farmaceutico o dell'erboristeria artigianale e biologica. In alcuni casi, ad esempio negli agriturismi, gli olii essenziali vengono prodotti su piccola - anche piccolissima - scala e venduti agli ospiti e ai visitatori che si portano così a casa un souvenir davvero speciale e unico, espressione autentica del luogo.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We more and more frequently are contacted by big and little farmers who are interested in the fascinating world of essential oils .... and we are very happy of that!</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Depending on the quantities and essential oils features, our Clients may think to enter the market of cosmetics, pharmaceutics or herbal crafts. In some case, for example in the "agriturismi" (B&B in the countryside), the essential oils are produced in small quantities to be sold to guests and visitors who, in such way, can bring at home the true essence of the place, a really special souvenir.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La breve storia che stiamo per raccontarvi parla di un' azienda agricola e di una signora (la proprietaria, Maria Meier) che a un certo punto ha deciso di esplorare la possibilità di produrre olii essenziali.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">E' un concreto esempio di quanto sia semplice passare da un'idea - molto spesso comprensibilmente vaga e confusa - all'impiantarsi di una nuova e proficua attività produttiva. </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The following brief story speaks about a farm and a lady (the owner, Mrs. Maria Maier) who, at a certain point, has decided to explore the opportunity of producing essential oils.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is a good example of how it is easy to transform an idea - understandbly confused and wander - in a new and profitable activity.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La Signora Maria vive in un posto meraviglioso, nella Maremma Toscana, e dispone di appezzamenti di terreno dedicati alla coltivazione dell'elicriso e della lavanda.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mrs. Maria lives in a beautiful place in the Tuscan "Maremma" area, and has some plots of land dedicated to the helycrisum and lavender cultivation.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La prima cosa che abbiamo fatto, dopo essere stati contattati, è stato studiare attentamente la qualità del prodotto si poteva tirar fuori, elaborando una valutazione tecnica delle caratteristiche degli olii.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The first step fro Green Engineering, after having been contacted, was to make a specific technical study to understand which kind of product we could obtain.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Successivamente, sulla base dei quantitativi e della qualità della materia prima disponibile, abbiamo progettato l'estrattore.. </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then, on the basis of the available raw material quantities and quality, we designed the essential oils extraction system.</span><br />

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nel caso di estrattori per olii essenziali, le apparecchiature sono piccole o, addirittura, piccolissime. Ciò non toglie che non debbano essere progettate e costruite secondo i criteri propri dello Stato dell'Arte. Questo aspetto costituisce infatti un punto fondamentale del nostro modo di lavorare: ricercare l'eccellenza sempre e comunque, curare ogni piccolo dettaglio, assistere il nostro cliente, passo dopo passo, nella definizione ed ottimizzazione del proprio progetto, supportarlo in ogni fase.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dopo che i nostri mastri artigiani lo hanno costruito in officina, qualche giorno fa abbiamo consegnato l'apparecchio. Abbiamo aiutato Maria ad installarlo e montarlo e passato con lei una mezza (e piacevole) giornata di training. Naturalmente, per qualsiasi necessità futura, Green Engineering è a completa disposizione.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the field of essential oils production, the equipment are small, or even very small. This doesn't mean that they must not be designed and built at the the State ot the Art. This is a crucial point for Green Engineering and our way of working: looking for excellence in any case, taking care of every little detail and supporting our Client, step by step, in the definition and optimization of the project.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the construction in our workshop by our craftmen, some days ago the distiller was delivered to Maria. We helped her during the installation phase and spent a pleasant half day with her for the training. Of course, Green Engineering remains completely for anything she may need in the future. </span><br />

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tra le varie attività dell'Azienda Agricola della nostra amica Maria Meier c'è adesso anche la produzione di olii essenziali di lavanda ed elicriso di ottima qualità.... e noi siamo contenti di aver contruibuito!</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, among the different Maria Merier's farm activities, there's also a high quality production of helycrisum and levander essential oils .... and ve are very happy to have contributed to this result!</span><br />

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In poco tempo, appena due anni dopo la sua nascita, è cresciuto il bisogno di ampliare la capacità produttiva di Southwstern , senza però snaturare la propria anima di piccola distilleria indipendente e artigianale con produzione di altissima qualità. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After two years from its establishment, Southwstern needed to improve and enlarge its production capacity. It was necessary to do it without being unfaithful to its soul of independent and craft distillery producing high - quality spirits. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">L'ideale sarebbe stato trovare un partner che unisse rigore ingegneristico e amore per la memoria, in un felice connubio tra tecnologia e tradizione.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The ideal thing woul be to find a partner joining engineering knowledge and human touch, in a perfect combination of technology and tradition.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ed è a questo punto che Green Engineering è entrata in scena. mettendo </span><span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> a disposizione tutta la propria esperienza nella produzione di gin e distillati aromatizzati (Pastis, Raki, Ouzo) e nella realizzazione di microdistillerie allo stato dell'arte, dette anche boutique distillerie per il grande gusto estetico che le caratterizza e che le rende assolutamente perfette per un centro visitatori.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At this pont, Green Engineering came on stage, by making available all our experience in gin and other flavoured spirits (Pastis, raki, Ouzo) and state-of-the-art microdistilleris, also known as boutique distillery for their beauty and charme, absolutely perfect for a visitor centre.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode';"><span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Abbiamo lavorato insieme a Tarquin intorno all'idea di base, cercando di interpretare al meglio esigenze ed aspirazioni, e subito dopo abbiamo cominciato a progettare.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La fase di concretizzazione di un'idea è sempre eccitante. Da una parte c'è la nostra trentennale esperienza nella realizzazione di alambicchi in rame artigianali, e quindi intuito e creatività; dall'altra una sofisticata progettazione in ambiente tridimensionale, supportata da un potente simulatore di processo e dalla fluidodinamica computazionale.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il risultato è stato la progettazione di una boutique distillery montata su skid con un alambicco in rame della capacità operativa di 500 litri completo di colonna di rettifica a 7 piatti e condensatore Shell & Tube in rame, sub-condensatore a piatti e 3 serbatoi, per la produzione di distillati di qualità quali Gin, Pastis ed altri (come Brandy, Calvados, Vodka artigianale)</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We worked with Tarquin to the general idea, trying to understand his needs and desires, and next we started to design.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The concretization of an idea is always exciting. On the one hand there is our thirty experience in manufacturing beautifully crafted copper stills, our insight, our creativeness; ont the other hand there is our 3D design environment design, computational fluid dynamics and powerful process simulator.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The result was the design of a boutique distillery, skid mounted, based on a Copper Still having an operating capacity of 500 litres, equipped with an overhead Rectification column with 7 trays and a Shell & Tube condenser in copper, plate sub-cooler and 3 receiving drums, for the production of premium spirits, including Gin, Pastis, and even other premium spirits (like Brandy, Calvados, Craft Vodka)</span></div>

<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">La progettazione è stata, come al solito, su misura.</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">L'intera distilleria è stata progettata in ambiente completamente tridimensionale utilizzando il potente strumento Solidworks Premium 2014. Il processo ha un approccio "WYSIWYG". Ciò significa che durante la fase di progettazione Tarquin (come tutti gli altri nostri Clienti, del resto) è stato costantemente aggiornato in tempo reale con modelli 3D della distilleria, diventando così capace di interagire attivamente e di sintonizzare la progettazione (e la forma della distilleria) alle sue esigenze e preferenze.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Inoltre la progettazione 3D include l'uso del CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) per poter accuratamente regolare il flusso interno delle apparecchiature in modo tale da garantire l'ottimale tasso di reflusso, turbolenze, tempo di contatto rame/alcool e tempo di contatto liquido/vapore.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We have adopted, as usual, a Bespoke Design.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">The whole distillery was designed in a fully tridimensional design environment based on the powerful SolidWorks Premium 2014. The design process is based on the "WYSIWYG" approach. This means that duing the design Tarquin (like all our Customers) has been constantly updated in real time with the 3D model of the distillery, becoming able to tune the design (and the shape of the equipment) according to his specific requirements and preferences. </span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Moreover the 3D design includes the use of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) to accurately tune the internal flow in order to guarantee the optimal reflux rate, turbulency, copper/spirit contact time and Liquid/vapour contact time. </span></div>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Una volta completata la fase di progettazione in ufficio, siamo passati all'officina dove lavorano veri e propri maestri del rame: persone di valore che hanno dedicato la loro vita alla realizzazione di alambicchi ed apparecchiature di distillazione in rame, tramandandosi di generazione in generazione i segreti di quella che è una vera e propria ARTE! </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La costruzione è stata affidata a Stefano, sicuramente uno dei più esperti ed appassionati artisti del rame.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il padre di Stefano, Antonio, faceva lo stesso mestiere ed ha collaborato a lungo con Green Engineering; Stefano ha cominciato a lavorare il rame e a produrre i suoi primi alambicchi da ragazzino. Oggi è un Maestro, un artista, un fine conoscitore, un appassionato.... e tutto questo si sente e si vede in ogni pezzo che esce dalle sue sapienti mani!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">After having completed the design phase, we have started the construction in our workshop. Our coppersmiths are great artists who have actually dedicated their own life to the realisation of pot-stills and distilling copper equipment. The secret of this fine art are handed down from generation to generation.</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our Stefano, a true artist and copper-lover, has manufactered the still and equipment for Tarquin.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Stefano's father, Antonio, was a great coppersmith who has been worked with us for a very long time. Stefano has learnts all the techniques and secrets directly by him bhen he was a little boy. Now he's a Mater in this field, an artis, a fine connaisseur..... and all this, the human touch, is clearly present in alle the pieces out of his hand.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Si è trattato, dunque,. di "togliere il velo" e condividere finalmente con il mondo la concretizzazione di una grandiosa ed originalissima idea, che la Stampa ha di volta in volta definito " una meravigliosa fabbrica di gin - una distilleria unica - il perfetto luogo di pellegrinaggio per gli amanti delle origini" (Bethan Ryder, The Telegraph Luxury)"; "il più eccezionale palazzo del gin del mondo- un palazzo del gin con un'atmosfera fantastica da Willy Wonka" (Jay Marrick - The Independent)... giusto per citarne alcuni.</span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The opening has literally been a true unveiling.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The scope was just to "remove the veil" and finally share with the World the result of a grand, original and innovative vision, defined by the Press as </span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"a marvellous gin factory - a distillery like no other - </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22.5px;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">the perfect pilgrimage for epicurious lovers of provenance" (Bethan Ryder, The Telegraph Luxury); "</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22.5px;"><span style="color: #38761d;">the </span></span><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 23px;"><span style="color: #38761d;">coolest gin palace in the world - a </span></span></span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">gin palace with a fantastical Willy Wonka vibe" (Jay Marrick - The Independent)"..... just to name a few</span></div>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il gin Bombay
Sapphire è prodotto sulla base di un processo artigianale e, al tempo
stesso, estremamente sofisticato, noto come "Infusione di Vapore". Il
processo riproduce fedelmente le linee guida della vecchia scuola del
diaciannovesimo secolo che usava il sistema ad infusione di vapore dei
Carterhead per impartire l'aroma delle botaniche all'alcool. Questo
significa che invece di cuocere le botaniche durante la distillazione o
infonderle direttamente nell'alcool, l'alcool vaporizzato passa
attraverso un cestello posto alla sommità dell'alambicco e contenente
tutte le botaniche. In pratica, nel momento in cui il vapore si
raffredda e condensa, otteniamo il gin. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">The Bombay Sapphire gin is produced on the basis of a craft and yet very sophisticated distillation process which is called Vapour infusion. It faithfully reproduces the</span><span style="line-height: 15.75pt;"><span style="color: #38761d;"> old-school of 19th century pot still tradition: the Carterhead
uses the "vapour infusion" method to impart the flavor of the
botanical (those which can be admired in the fabolous Glasshouses) to the alcohol. That means that rather than cooking the botanicals
during distillation or infusing them directly into the spirit, the vaporized
alcohol passes through a copper basket at the top of the still which contains all the botanicals. As it cools and condenses, we obtain gin</span><span style="color: blue;">. </span></span></span></div>

Il nome "India" deriva dal fatto che originariamente, quando Laverstoke Mill era una cartiera, l'edificio era adibito alla stampa delle banconote dell'impero britannico destinate all'India. </span></div>

La forma unica unica di questi alambicchi è una reinterpretazione moderna delle forme classiche dei vecchi alambicchi da Gin di inizio '900 . La tecnologia però rappresenta lo stato dell'arte : infatti questi alambicchi sono dotati di un innovativo ed efficiente sistema di gestione del vapore, capace di erogare in maniera molto dolce una grande quantità di energia. Inoltre sono dotati di una sezione di riflusso che consente al Master Distiller una enorme precisione nel controllo del processo di distillazione. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gli alambicchi sono inoltre stati dotati di tecnologie di risparmio energetico. La prima è il fondo completamente coibentato che garantisce un notevole risparmio di vapore ed anche un risparmio di energia spesa per il condizionamento dei locali (non necessario) . Inoltre sono dotati di speciali condensatori a recupero energetico che consentono di sfruttare l'energia della condensazione del gin per preriscaldare l'alcol ed anche per riscaldare le enormi serre in cui vengono fatti crescere i botanicals. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The "India Still House" is the building that houses the two great stills of 12,000 liters, B-401 (Victoria) and B-402 (Henry). The name 'India' derives from the fact that , when Laverstoke Mill was a paper mill, the building was used for printing the british banknotes destined for India. </span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The stills of India House produce most of the gin in Laverstoke, and consequently are responsible for most of the global production of Bombay Sapphire (in fact, unlike other gins, </span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">the Bombay Sapphire produced entirely in England and then exported to the rest of the world). </span>The design of the two stills combines innovation and tradition. The unique shape of these stills is a modern reinterpretation of the classic forms of the old gin stills from '900. The technology, however, represents the state of the art: in fact these stills are equipped with an innovative and efficient steam management system, capable of delivering very gently a large amount of energy. They are also equipped with a reflux section that allows the Master Distiller a huge precision in the control of the distillation process.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />The stills were also equipped with energy-saving technologies. The first is the </span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">completely insulated </span>bottom, which guarantees a considerable saving of steam, and also a saving of energy expenditure for the air conditioning of the still house (not necessary). They are also equipped with special condensers for energy recovery that allow to harness the energy of condensation of gin to preheat the alcohol and also to heat the huge glasshouses where </span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">botanicals </span>are grown.</span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ad installazione completata gli alambicchi sono solo "montati" ma non ancora "vivi" . E' durante il commissioning che quegli enormi manufatti in rame iniziano a prendere vita, si scaldano e il vapore inizia ad attraversarli per poi tornare allo stato liquido nei condensatori. Il colore del rame incomincia a cambiare, dalla tonalità rosea che ha quando è appena stato lavorato, alla tonalità dorata che assume dopo che i primi vapori ne hanno scaldato la superficie. Il commissioning è sicuramente la fase più emozionante per un produttore di distillerie, perché ci si rende conto che il progetto si è trasformato in un qualcosa di produttivo, di funzionante e, in questo caso, di profondamente bello. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When installation is complete the stills are just "fitted" but not yet "live". It's during the commissioning that those huge copper artefacts begin to come alive, get warm, and steam begins to pass through and then go back to the liquid state in the condensers. The color of the copper begins to change, from the rosy hue that it has when it is just worked, to the golden hue which it assumes after the first vapors have heated the surface. The commissioning is definitely the most exciting stage for a manufacturer of distilleries, because we realize that the project has turned into something productive and, in this case, profoundly beautiful. </span></span></div>

Tuttavia il sistema di gestione del vapore in pressione è stato completamente riprogettato per garantire i più elevati standard di sicurezza e le migliori prestazioni in termini di consumi energetici. Anche il sistema di gestione del riflusso in colonna è stato migliorato, pur conservando in pieno le caratteristiche uniche del sistema "carterheads". Inoltre, dal punto di vista del design estetico, le sezioni dei vecchi carterheads che in passato erano state verniciate in grigio, probabilmente con lo scopo di conferire un look più moderno agli apparecchi, sono state riportate al rame puro, lucidato e riportato al suo splendore originale. L'approccio è stato quello di conservare il meglio dei vecchi carterheads , portandoli al tempo stesso ad essere nuovamente degli alambicchi allo stato dell'arte della tecnologia, e questo è esattamente quello che avvenne quando i carterheads furono introdotti per la prima volta, centinaia di anni fa... </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's the Still House 3 and has been named Heritage Still House because it contains the old "Carterheads"Stills re-designed and refurbished by Green Engineering. The still that can admired at Laverstoke Mill have many original sections coming from the old carterheads used for the gin production starting from the 19th century. Anyway, the whole system has been re-designed with the scope of ensuring the highest safety standards and the best energy consumption performances. The reflux column system too has benn improved, yet fully preserving the unique features of the carterheads system. <br />Furthermore, from the point of view of the aesthetic design, the sections of the old carterheads that in the past had been painted gray, probably with the purpose to confer a more modern look, have been reported to pure copper, polished and brought back to its original glory.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our approach has been focused on preserving the very best of the carterhaeds and, at the same time, transfrom them in State-of-the- Art stills. That's what actually happened in the Spirits Industry when they were introduced, hundreds of years ago....</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;">In qualità di una delle principali attrazioni del percorso di visita a Laverstoke Mill, la progettazione della Heritage Still House ha richiesto attenzioni specifiche. In particolare, il progetto dello studio Heatherwick prevedeva che i due carterheads fossero visibili da due grandi vetrate che separano la Heritage Still House dalla Botanical Dry Room , stanza in cui i visitatori possono apprendere tutto sui 10 botanicals che compongono il Bombay Sapphire. Inoltre le ridottissime dimensioni dell'edificio storico hanno reso complesso lo studio sul posizionamento degli alambicchi, che deve tenere conto anche delle esigenze produttive e di manutenzione, oltre che a quelle estetiche. Di nuovo, la progettazione in 3D della distilleria è stata fondamentale per centrare contemporaneamente tutti i diversi requisiti. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As one of the major attraction of the visitor experience in Laverstoke Mill, the design of the Heritage </span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Still</span> House required specific attention. In particular, the Heatherwick studio provided that the two carterheads should be admired by visitors from two large windows that separate the Heritage House from the Botanical Still Dry Room, the room where visitors can stop and learn all about the 10 botanicals that make up the Bombay Sapphire. In addition, the small size of the old building have made quite complex the study of the positioning of stills, which must take into account the requirements of production and maintenance, as well as the aesthetic ones. Again the 3D model was critical to succesfully achieve a design capable of matching all the different requirements. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;">La ricostruzione dei Carterheads ha impegnato le nostre migliori risorse; era infatti necessario recuperare e riportare al loro splendore originale tutte le sezioni recuperabili degli alambicchi storici ed accoppiarle alle nuove sezioni. Uno degli aspetti più importanti è che gli alambicchi risultassero omogenei , sia come fattura sia in termini di tonalità di colore delle superfici in rame. Un'altra sfida è stata quella di accoppiare flange in acciaio inossidabile a sezioni di rame con tanti anni di produzione alle spalle. <br /><br /><span style="color: #38761d;">The reconstruction of the Carterheads committed our best resources; we would need to recover and return to their original splendor all the </span></span></span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #38761d;">recoverable </span></span></span>sections of the </span></span></span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #38761d;">historical </span></span></span>stills and couple them to the new sections. One of the most important aspects is that the stills prove homogeneous, both as manufacture and in terms of color tone of the copper surfaces. Another challenge was to match stainless steel flanges to sections of copper with many years of production behind it. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;">L'installazione dei carterheads nella piccola Heritage Still House ha rappresentato una sfida ancora maggiore di quella relativa alla India House : infatti la Heritage House è più distante dalla principale strada di accesso a Laverstoke Mill, e contrariamente alla India House non dispone di uno spiazzo di fronte all'ingresso principale. Così per portare le apparecchiature all'interno dell'edificio è stato necessario farle atterrare nel ristretto spazio tra la Heritage Still House e l'edificio vicino, ed introdurli all'interno attraverso un'apertura praticata nel muro.</span></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gli alambicchi Carterheads sono stati avviati poco prima dell'apertura ufficiale di Laverstoke Mill al pubblico. Tutta la distilleria era un brulicare di tecnici intenti a completare gli ultimi dettagli in tempo per le varie cerimonie di apertura programmate da Bacardi. Quello che fino a poche settimane prima era ancora un cantiere , seppure con una distilleria già operativa, si stava trasformando a vista d'occhio in un centro visitatori allo stato dell'arte. Le ultime piante venivano sistemate nelle straordinarie serre , i monitor informativi venivano testati e le luci posizionate per enfatizzare la bellissima architettura del sito. Noi abbiamo osservato queste ultime fasi dall'interno della Heritage Still House, dove il nostro compito era quello di rendere operativi i bellissimi carterhead, pronti per ricevere i visitatori provenienti da tutto il mondo per scoprire i segreti della produzione del Bombay Sapphire . </span></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Carterhead stills have been started just before the official opening of Laverstoke Mill to the public. All the distillery was a swarm of engineers intent to complete the final details in time for the several opening ceremonies planned by Bacardi. What a few weeks before was still a building site, albeit with a distillery already operational, was becoming visibly ia state of the art visitor center. The latter plants were arranged in the amazing glasshouses, information screens were tested and the lights positioned to emphasize the beautiful architecture of the site. We observed these latter stages </span></span></span></span><span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">from the</span></span></span></span> Heritage Still House, where our task was to operationalize the beautiful carterheads, and make them ready to receive visitors from all over the world , eager to discover the secrets of Bombay Sapphire.</span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As Italian, a great importance is given to creativeness and the space intends to be a meeting place for all those with creative skills and talents. In fact space is offered on the walls for local artists to mount exhibitions, and there will be poetry readings and live entertainment. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sono stati giorni intensi quelli che dall' 8 all' 11 Settembre ci hanno visto partecipare come GOLD SPONSOR alla World Distilled Spirits Conference 2014 di Glasgow!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Eventi, incontri, scambi, presentazioni e approfondimenti si sono susseguiti in un contesto di altissimo livello, offrendo ad ogni partecipante reali opportunità di crescita in un settore - quello dell'industria dell'alcool - che sempre più pone nuove sfide e cerca nuove soluzioni.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Grazie di cuore quindi agli organizzatori che hanno permesso a coloro che operano nel settore di incontrarsi e condividere conoscenze ed esperienze.</span></div>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Quello che segue è una sorta di breve "diario di bordo" che ripercorre e condivide con voi lettori i momenti più salienti - e divertenti! - del contributo portato da Green Engineering. </span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Parole e immagini per ripercorrere quello che da qualcuno è stato definito "The Italian Job": un mix di rigore e creatività, innovazione e rispetto della tradizione che ha contraddistinto la nostra presenza e definito concretamente cosa intendiamo con il termine eccellenza.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">Great days those we spent in Glasgow from 8 to 11 of September as Golden Sponsor of the World Spirits Conference 2014!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">Events, meetings, exchanges, talks and studies in a high level framework have offered to each participant the real opportunity of growing in a field - the Spirits Industry - which continuously presents new challenges and looks for new solutions. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">Thank you so much to all the organizers - The Insitute of Brewing and Distilling - who have given to all the operators the opportunity of meeting and sharing new experiences.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">The following wants to be just a little " logbook" which goes over again the highlights of Green Engineering contribution.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">Words and pictures to share with you all the work of our Team (that someone jokinlgly has defined "The Italian Job"!...) : a mix of intellectual rigor and creativeness, innovation and tradition embodying what we really mean when saying "excellence". </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #bf9000;"><u><br /></u></span></b></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Alle 10 di mattina, come da programma, c'è stato l'intervento del nostro Eugenio Macchia che ha illustrato alla Conferenza dei delegati il contributo scientifico di Green Engineering dal titolo "<b>Distillation Surfaces functionalization by CU and TIO2 nanoparticles" ("Funzionalizzazione delle superfici di distillazione con nanoparticelle di rame e titanio").</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At ten o' clock, our Eugenio Macchia presented to the Conference of Delegates the scientific contribution of Green Engineering "</span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">Distillation Surfaces functionalization by CU and TIO2 nanoparticles".</span></b><br />
<b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #bf9000;"><br /></span></b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">L'intervento ha riscosso un grande successo ed ha suscitato l'interesse e la curiosità di molti (imprenditori, distillatori, ricercatori, scienziati, studenti, etc) , che hanno successivamente visitato lo Stand per ulteriori informazioni e approfondimenti.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">In effetti, Green Engineering è il primo fornitore di impianti di distillazione ad introdurre nanotecnologie per il miglioramento della qualità dei distillati. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">L'intensa attività di ricerca portata avanti avanti negli ultimi anni dal proprio Centro di Ricerca, il CREA, in collaborazione con l'Università di Siena, si è concretizzata in un brevetto industriale ed offre adesso la concreta possibilità di aumentare fino a 6 volte la capacità del rame di catturare componenti indesiderati. Questo significa che, grazie alla tecnologia G.E., la superficie di un piatto catturerà la stessa quantità di mercaptani (ed altri componenti indesiderati) di molti piatti in sequenza (fino a 6 piatti, in certe condizioni).</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Eugenio's talk has had a great success and aroused the interest and curiosity of many people (entrepreneurs, distillers, researchers, scientists, students, colleagues, etc) who have then visited our stand form more information and details.</span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As a matter of fact, Green Engineering is the first supplier of distilleries introducing advanced nanotechnologies for the improvement of spirits quality.</span><br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Following many years of research on copper in cooperation with its Research Centrre, the CREA (University of Siena), we patented the first nanocopper surface and offer now to all our Cusotmer the real opportunity of increasing up to 6 times the capability of copper to catch undesidered compounds. This means that the surface of 1 tray will catch the same amount of mercaptans(and other undesidered compounds) of many sequential trays (up to 6 trays in certain conditions).</span><br />

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Origini / <span style="color: #38761d;">Origins </span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il Progetto SPEI-BETA nasce dalla consapevolezza che una transizione verso l’uso di risorse energetiche
rinnovabili esige lo sviluppo di una strategia energetica articolata,
che preveda una fase di analisi degli errori commessi nel passato e la ricerca </span><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">accurata di soluzioni migliori e più avanzate
da un punto di vista culturale, sociale ed ambientale. </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Da questa analisi circa 9 anni fa Andrea Macchia (Presidente di Green Engineering) ed il Prof. Claudio Rossi (Professore di Chimica Fisica presso l'Università di Siena) svilupparono l’idea di un motore a idrogeno in grado di superare i
limiti che ad oggi ne impediscono l’uso su larga scala. Tale idea fu poi brevettata in un processo chiamato OBHYG (On Board Hydrogen Generation) che rappresenta la base concettuale di SPEI-BETA (vedi figura sopra).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">The SPEI-BETA project was born with the awareness that the transiction towards renewable energies needs the develpment of a sophisticated strategy: starting from the analysis of the mistakes made in the past in this field, we have now to obtain better solutions either cultural, social and environmental. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">From this assumption about 9 years ago, Andrea Macchia (President of Green Engineering) and Claudio Rossi (Professor of Theoretical Chemistry at the University of Siena) developed and patented the idea of an hydrogen motor able to get over the limits which today do not allow its large-scale use.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>L'Idea / <span style="color: #38761d;">The Idea</span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">L’idea di base del progetto SPEI – BETA riguarda quindi la realizzazione di un
prototipo per un sistema di propulsione in grado di produrre idrogeno da un
combustibile liquido rinnovabile quale il “bioetanolo” – ovvero etanolo
rinnovabile ottenuto da processi fermentativi di materiale organico, da cui il
prefisso “bio” – e di utilizzare l’idrogeno così ottenuto per alimentare un
sistema di celle a combustibile, con cui generare energia elettrica per
processi meccanici, quali, ad esempio, l’autotrazione. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">ll nuovo motore potrà essere
ridotto ad un volume tale da essere collocabile a bordo di un autoveicolo,
consentendo così di sostituire il motore a scoppio tradizionale.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The SPEI BETA Project core idea is the realisation of a prototype of a propulsion system able to produce hydrogen starting from a liquid and renewable fuel such as "bioethanol" - i.e. renewable ethanol obtained from fermentation process of organic material, that's why "bio" - and to use the obtained hydrogen to feed a fuel cell system producing energy for mechanical processes, such as for example the car drive.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The new motor can be reduced up to a volume which can be located in a vehicle, by substituting the traditional combustion engine.</span></div>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I vantaggi di tale sistema sono evidenti, perché l’etanolo:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<ul style="margin-top: 0cm;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">ha origine
da fonti totalmente rinnovabili;</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">è un
biocarburante liquido che non ha alcun problema di stoccaggio e la
possibilità di utilizzare per il rifornimento l’attuale rete di
distribuzione dei normali carburanti;</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">ha una
bassa pericolosità rispetto ai tradizionali carburanti fossili grazie ad
un punto di infiammabilità più elevato rispetto al gasolio e alla benzina;</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">è molto
più sicuro da stoccare anche rispetto allo stesso idrogeno, che invece
presenterebbe delle criticità sulla sicurezza nel caso si pensasse di
distribuirlo attraverso una rete di distributori e di stoccarlo a bordo degli
autoveicoli al posto delle normali benzine;</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">ha un
costo al consumatore paragonabile a quello della benzina.</span></li>
</ul>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The benefits of such system are clear, as the ethanol:</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">originates from totally renewable sources;</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">is a liquid biofuel which has no problem of storage and can use the existing distribution network of traditional fuels;</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">if compared with the traditional fossil fuels, has a low hazard thanks to a flash point higher than petrol and diesel ones;</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">is safer to store, even more than hydrogen, which, on the contrary, could have some critical aspects if we thought to distribute it through the distribution network and store it inside the vehicles</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">has a final cost to the consumer not higher than the traditional fuels' one.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Va rilevato inoltre che la CO2 prodotta nella reazione di
reforming dell’etanolo non contribuisce ad un suo aumento in atmosfera in
quanto corrisponde esattamente alla CO2 assorbita dalla specie vegetale da cui l’etanolo
è stato ottenuto. Le uniche emissioni del processo sono pertanto costituite soltanto
dall’acqua di scarico della cella a combustibile che peraltro viene
riutilizzata.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">Moreover, we have to note that the CO2 produced during the ethanol reforming reaction does not contribute to its augmentation in the atmosphere, as it just corresponds to the CO2 adsorbed by the plant species used as raw material. The only emissions of this process are so given by the water discharged by the fuel cell, which is moreover re-used.</span></span></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il sistema consente pertanto di fare rifornimento di etanolo
tramite la normale rete di distribuzione carburanti; una volta fatto
rifornimento, il sistema converte in continuo il bioetanolo in idrogeno che
viene usato per alimentare una cella combustibile. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La cella a combustibile produce energia elettrica,
utilizzata da un motore elettrico. L’idrogeno prodotto dal sistema non viene
mai stoccato a bordo ma alimenta in continuo la fuel-cell, risultando quindi
intrinsecamente sicuro.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, the system allows you to refuel through the normal distribution network; then the system continuously converts the bioethanol in hydrogen which is then used to feed a fuel cell.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The fuel cell produces energy power, used by an electric engine. The hydrogen produced by the system is never stocked, but continuously feeds the fuel-cell, being - in such way - intrinsecally safe.</span></div>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During the last years, The European Union - like other countries, such as the United States - have largely promoted the development of mobility models (not only land transport, but also maritime and aeronautical) able to reduce:</span><br />

<div>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Per raggiungere questi obiettivi si sono seguite alcune strade che hanno portato allo sviluppo di tecnologie e metodologie tutte abbastanza indipendenti le une dalle altre, e senza che nessuna di queste riuscisse a “fare sistema” sia con le infrastrutture e le tecnologie attualmente esistenti sia con quelle in fase di sviluppo. </span></div>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sono nate così idee più o meno valide, ma spesso in competizione sia le une con le altre sia con lo status attuale dell’industria dei trasporti. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To reach these goals, some solutions have been found which have resulted in the develompent of technologies and models all independent of each other, not connected with the already existing (or "in development" ones) infrastructures and technologies.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Different ideas have been generated, often in competition with each other and with the transportation industry.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ad esempio, in relazione agli obiettivi sopra citati :</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Per l’obiettivo 1 – Si è puntato sull'incremento di efficienza dei motori benzina e diesel, che però sono basati sui tradizionali combustibili fossili, inquinanti e non rinnovabili e sono limitati intrinsecamente dai cicli termodinamici da cui sono stati concepiti (ciclo Otto e ciclo Diesel) .</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Per l’obiettivo 2 – Si sono sviluppati motori a ciclo Otto funzionanti con idrogeno liquido, dove però l'idrogeno veniva prodotto in stabilimenti utilizzando energie di origine fossile (non rinnovabile) . Oltretutto questa soluzione presenta molti rischi dovuti alla pericolosità dell'idrogeno, combustibile estremamente reattivo: l’idrogeno immagazzinato a bordo dell'autoveicolo rappresenta un grave rischio per i passeggeri; la rete attuale di distribuzione dei carburanti non è compatibile con l'idrogeno e quindi andrebbe completamente adeguata a questo nuovo carburante; infine anche con una rete di distribuzione adeguata rimarrebbe il problema di un carburante estremamente pericoloso , con enormi rischi durante la fase di rifornimento effettuata spesso dall'utente finale e non da un tecnico specializzato (le stazioni di rifornimento infatti attualmente operano per la maggior parte come self-service, motivo in più per evitare l'utilizzo di combustibili ancora più pericolosi della benzina) . </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Un'altra strada percorsa in questo senso è stata quella dello sviluppo delle auto elettriche, dove però l'energia elettrica viene prelevata dalla rete , con due grandi limitazioni : </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a) la prima è che l'energia prelevata dalla rete è sostanzialmente originata da fonti fossili (non rinnovabili) </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">b) la seconda è la necessità di lunghi tempi di ricarica delle batteria a stato solido (dalle 2-3 ore per vetture molto piccole e progettate per brevi autonomie fino alle 8 ore per le autovetture di dimensioni standard dotate di maggiore autonomia)</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Per gli obiettivi 3 e 4 – Si sono introdotti i biocarburanti, che hanno l'enorme vantaggio di non richiedere modifiche all'attuale rete di distribuzione dei carburanti , e di non richiedere particolari modifiche ai motori. Il limite di questa soluzione è che non agisce sugli obiettivi 1 e 2 , che invece sono importante al fine di rendere "sostenibile" a livello comunitario l'utilizzo dei biocarburanti .</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For example, with reference to the mentioned goals:</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Goal 1 - The attention has been focused on the efficiency increase of the benzine and diesel motors, which are however based on traditional fossil fuels, not renewable and polluting; they are intrinsecally limited by thermodynamic cycles from which they originate (otto cycle and diesel)</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Goal 2 - Otto Cycle motors running through liquid hydrogen have been developed; the liquid hydrogen was however produced in factories using not renewable energies, comning from fossil fuels. Moreover this solution has all the risks connected with the hydrogen hazard. As a matter of fact, the hydrogen is extremely reactive; once it is stored "on board", it sure represents a serious danger for the passengers. The current fuels distirbution network is not suitable and so it should be completely adapted. We have to take into account that even by using an adjusted network, the hazard problem remains unsolved, with all the huge risk during the provision, which is often made by the end user and not by a specialist (most of the refueling stations are self-service and this is another reason to avoid the use of fuels more hazard than benzine)</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We have then tried the solution of electric cars, by drawing the electric power directly from the existing distribution network. This solution has in any way great limitations:</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a) the used energy derivates from fossil fuels (not renewable)</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">b) we need very long times for the solid state battery recharging (from 2-3 hours for small, short-range cars, to 8 hours for standard cars with greater autonomy)</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Goal 3 and 4 - Biofuels have been introduced in the market. They sure have the advantage of not requesting a change to the current distribution netowrking. However, the limitation of this solution is that it has no effect on the goals 1 and 2, which are important for the sustainability of biofuels use in the European Union.</span><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />

<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #38761d;">Cars with hydrogen fuel cells (such as the Honda FCX Clarity in the first 3 pictures above or the Hyundai FCEV in the fourth picture) combine the advantages of the electric motor to those on board the conversion of chemical energy into electrical energy , however, needs to be stored on board in conditions of high pressure and requires a dedicated distribution network .

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">L’originalità del prototipo che si vuole realizzare con il presente progetto consiste proprio nella possibilità di rispondere contemporaneamente a tutti gli obiettivi strategici indicati inizialmente. L'innovazione consiste essenzialmente nella modalità di generazione dell’idrogeno, che avviene a partire da un biocarburante rinnovabile ed a bordo dell’autovettura, senza la necessità di apporti esterni. L’idrogeno prodotto alimenta direttamente le celle a combustibile atte alla propulsione del motore. Il rifornimento dell’etanolo necessario per la produzione di H2 potrà avvenire nelle normali stazioni di servizio in quanto l’etanolo è un combustibile liquido rinnovabile, facilmente trasportabile e immagazzinabile, che presenta rischi ambientali molto minori rispetto ai tradizionali combustibili fossili di origine petrolifera. Inoltre l’etanolo (o bioetanolo, dove il prefissio bio indica la sua origine rinnovabile) è già oggi uno dei due principali biocarburanti miscelati con i tradizionali combustibili fossili al fine di soddisfare i requisiti della direttiva europea nota come “20-20 by 2020” , ed è quindi un bio-carburante già maturo e già presente negli impianti industriali delle aziende petrolifere (vedi in particolare Direttive : 2003/30 EC - 2009/28 EC - 2009/30 EC ). </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The innovation of the prototype we want to realise by this project is just given by the opportunity of reaching all the above mentioned strategic objetives. In other words, the innovation is given by the way of producing the hydrogen, starting from a renewable biofuel directly "on board", without the need of external support. The produced hydrogen directly feeds the fuel cells for the motor prorpulsion. The supplying of the necessary ethanol for the H2 production can be made in the normal service stations as ethanol is a liquid fuel totally renewable, easily transportable and storable, with environment risks much lower than the traditional fossil fuels of petroleum origin. Moreover, the ethanol (or bioethanol, where the prefix bio indicates its renewable origin) is already one of the main biofuels mixed with the traditional fuels to meet the requirements of the European Union known as "20-20 by 2020.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il sistema consente quindi lo sviluppo di un nuovo modello
generale di mobilità sostenibile basato su biocarburanti completamente verdi e
su un innovativo sistema di conversione dell’energia chimica in energia
meccanica. Il motore “SPEI-BETA” è infatti del tutto compatibile con le attuali
politiche di sviluppo de settore biocarburanti. In particolare, grazie ala sua
maggiore efficienza rispetto ad un motore a scoppio ed alle sue emissioni
nulle, rende i biocarburanti molto più efficaci nella riduzione globale dei gas
serra emessi dall’autotrasporto.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We can in such way generate a biofuels-based sustainable mobility model and an innovative conversion system of the chemical energy into mechanical one. The "SPEI-BETA" motor is in fact compatible with the current development policies of the biofuels sector. More precisely, thanks to its higher efficiency and zero emissions, the system makes the biofuels more effective in the global reduction of the greenehouses gases from autotrasport.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In conclusione SPEI – BETA rappresenta un netto passo avanti
da un modello di mobilità sostenibile basato su biocarburanti ma ancora
limitato dalle basse efficienze dei motori a scoppio e dalle loro emissioni
nocive dovute al processo di combustione, verso un modello innovativo di
mobilità sostenibile che unisce i vantaggi dei biocarburanti rinnovabili all’efficenza
ed all’abbattimento di emissioni garantito dall’adozione del motore elettrico. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">SPEI BETA coinvolge nel progetto una vasta filiera
produttiva che include:</span></div>
<ul style="margin-top: 0cm;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">il settore
agro-alimentare per la produzione dei biocarburanti da cui ricavare l’idrogeno</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il settore
della meccanica e della automazione, sia per lo sviluppo del motore che
per la sua applicazione</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il settore
della chimica e dei nuovi materiali, per le fasi di reforming catalitico e
della purificazione dell’idrogeno dagli altri elementi.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In conclusion, SPEI-BETA is a definite step forward, from a sustainable mobility models based on biofuels but still limited by the low efficiency of the combustion engine and the related harmful emissions, towards an innovative model which couples the benefits of renewable biofuels to efficiency and emissions reduction connected with the electric motor.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In considerazione infatti delle tematiche affrontate e degli
obiettivi che si prefigge, il progetto SPEI-BETA rientra a pieno titolo fra le
priorità previste dai progetti Integrati di Sviluppo (PIS) del Piano Regionale di Sviluppo 2011 –
2015 per il rilancio della crescita economica, ed in particolare negli ambiti
del Distretto Tecnologico dell’efficienza energetica, delle energie rinnovabili
e della green economy.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That's
a very good news not only for Green Engineering, who is the project
leader, and for all the involved scientific and technological partners,
but also and especially for the Environment, the Science and the true
sustainable Development.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Considering
the key topics and the scopes of the project, SPEI BETA can be fully
included among the priorities of the Development integrated projects of
the Regional Programme 2011 - 2015 for the economic growth, particularly
in the technological District of the energetic efficiency, renewable
energies and green economy.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Siamo felici e orgogliosi di poter dare un serio contributo
alla creazione di un modello di sviluppo alternativo e al tempo stesso convincente
sotto ogni punto di vista. Partecipano al progetto partners di altissimo livello tecnologico e
scientifico : l’Università degli Studi
di Siena, la società T.M. di Siena (storico partner di Green Engineering) e la società Advanced Catalysts di Livorno. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Rifacendosi
alla propria solida base etica e valoriale, Green Engineering da sempre
mira alla creazione di un plus valore non solo aziendale, ma “sociale”
nel senso più profondo del termine, capace quindi di incidere in maniera
significativa sul tessuto socio-economico e di migliorare la qualità
della vita.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lavoriamo
a questo progetto con l'entusiasmo di chi "fa la cosa giusta" e con il
rigore intellettuale di chi, molto seriamente, mira a risultati concreti
e soluzioni realmente fattibili.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We
are happy and proud to give a serious contribution to the creation of a
new, sustainable model of growth, which is truly convincing from every
point of view. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The other participants of the project are : the University of Siena , the Company T.M. from Siena (an hystorical partner of Green Engineering) and the Company Advanced Catalyst from Livorno.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On
the basis of its ethic and values, Green Engineering has always tended
to the creation of a plus value not only corporate, but deeply
"social", which actually can change the socio-economic context and
improve the quality of life.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We
approach this project with all the enthusiasm of who is just doing "the
right thing", but at the same time with the intellectual rigor of who
want to obtain concrete results end feasible solutions. </span></div>

<div>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">L'evento si presentava con un titolo di grande suggestione : SIR GIN! .... e di certo non ha tradito le aspettative dei partecipanti che hanno deciso di incontrare da vicino - e da diversi punti di vista - questo straordinario distillato.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On Wednesday, June 18th we took part to an interesting and pleasant event, organised by ANAG Toscana in collaboration with the Restaurant - Wine Bar "I Cinque Sensi" in Florence.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The event had an evocative title: SIR GIN! .... and fully encountered the expectations of the participants who decided to better know - even from different point of views - this extraordinary distillate</span><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La serata è stata animata da aneddoti, descrizioni delle ricette e storia del Gin da parte del Barman Fabio.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Green Engineering, da parte sua, ha dato il proprio contributo con una presentazione del processo utilizzato per la produzione del Bombay Sapphire, gin eccellente che non ha bisogno di presentazioni, proveniente da impianti che abbiamo progettato e costruito per la Bacardi e che costuitscono un felice connubio tra tecnologia e tradizione. </span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Per gli assaggiatori dell'ANAG è stato interessante conoscere come - con quali tecniche, con quali metodi, con quali apparecchi - si arriva a quel particolare gusto, a quell'aroma, a quel carattere....</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Così come è stato molto bello per noi della Green, focalizzare l'attenzione sul prodotto finito e godere di inediti e raffinati abbinamenti sensoriali.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Guardiamo un po' più nel dettaglio!</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The evening has been livened by anedoctes, recipes descriptions and history of Gin By the Barman Fabio.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From our side, we have presented the process of the production of the Bombay Sapphire, excellent and wll-known gin coming from plants designed and built by Green Engineering for Bacardi, which surely represent an happy marriage between technology and tradition.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For ANAG tasters it was interesting to learn how - which techniques, methods, equipments - we arrive to a particular taste, flavour, character: ......</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For Green Engineering, similarly, it was really nice to focus our attention on the final product and be delighted by refined sensory combinations.</span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Let's have a look!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Abbiamo cominciato con un Gin tonic a base di Bombay Sapphire aromatizzato con bacche di ginepro, petali di rosa, miele biologico alla lavanda, scorza di pompelmo rosa e Tonic Water ai fiori d'arancio e lavanda.....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We started with a gin Tonic Bombay Sapphire based, served with juniper berries, rose petals, organic honey lavender, zest of pink grapefruit Tonic water spiced with orange flowers and lavender.....</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Il 10 Maggio 2014, il Consiglio Federale del'ANAG ( Associazione Nazionale Assaggiatori di Grappe ed acqueviti ) ha eletto Paola Soldi come nuovo Presidente Confederale Nazionale . Paola la conosciamo molto bene, perché è nata a Colle Val D'Elsa (la nostra città) ed anche perché fino alla sua elezione alla Presidenza Nazionale , è stata Presidente ANAG per la Regione Toscana, dove ha sviluppato moltissime iniziative per la promozione della cultura sulla Grappa ed in generale sui distillati e sul "bere consapevole" .</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Per la vicinanza che sentiamo nei confronti di Paola, le abbiamo chiesto di poterla intervistare per il GreenCLUB .</div>

Paola Soldi durante una degustazione di Grappa presso una distilleria toscana</div>
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Paola, innanzitutto vorrei rinnovare i complimenti da parte di tutta la Green Engineering per la tua recente nomina a Presidentessa Federale dell’Anag Noi ti abbiamo conosciuto nella tua veste di Presidentessa Regionale per la Toscana, e trovarti al Nazionale adesso ci fa davvero piacere. Come ti senti a riguardo?</span><br />
<span class="hps">Paola</span>, first of all <span class="hps">I would like to</span> <span class="hps">renew</span> <span class="hps">the</span> <span class="hps">compliments from</span> <span class="hps">all the</span> <span class="hps">Green Engineering</span> <span class="hps">for your recent</span> <span class="hps">appointment</span> <span class="hps">to</span> <span class="hps">the Federal</span> <span class="hps">President</span> of <span class="hps">Anag.</span> <span class="hps">We</span> <span class="hps">have known</span> <span class="hps">you</span> <span class="hps">in your</span> <span class="hps">capacity as</span> ANAG <span class="hps">President</span> <span class="hps">of the Region of</span> <span class="hps">Tuscany,</span> <span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">we really enjoyed </span><span class="hps">seeing you</span> <span class="hps">at the</span> <span class="hps">National</span> <span class="hps">now</span> . <span class="hps">How do you feel</span> <span class="hps">about that?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #073763;">PS : Grazie. Naturalmente mi sento investita di una responsabilità che prima non avevo e cerco di fare tesoro di tutti i suggerimenti che i soci mi hanno sempre dato quando, si rivolgevano a me, come Presidente Regionale, per istanze e richieste relative alla Federazione. Del resto anche quando sono stata eletta a Presidentessa Regionale mi ero sentita preoccupata, ma poi in questi anni tutto è andato bene e l’Associazione ha visto aumentare la partecipazione.</span><br />
<span class="hps">Thank you.</span> <span class="hps">Of course</span> <span class="hps">I am</span> <span class="hps">entrusted with a</span> <span class="hps">responsibility that</span> <span class="hps">I hadn't</span> <span class="hps">before</span> <span class="hps">and I will try</span> <span class="hps">to learn from</span> <span class="hps">all the suggestions</span> <span class="hps">that members</span> <span class="hps">have always given me during my regional presidency.</span> <span class="hps">Moreover, even</span> <span class="hps">when</span> <span class="hps">I was elected</span> <span class="hps">to</span> <span class="hps">the Regional</span> <span class="hps">President</span> <span class="hps">I had felt</span> <span class="hps">worried, but</span> <span class="hps">then</span> <span class="hps">over the years</span> <span class="hps">everything went well</span> <span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">the Association has</span> <span class="hps">seen an increase in</span> <span class="hps">participation.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Sarebbe interessante conoscere la tua storia in ANAG…. Come hai cominciato e cosa ti ha spinto ad intraprendere il tuo percorso di esperta in grappe e distillati?</span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">It would be</span> <span class="hps">interesting to hear</span> <span class="hps">your story</span> in ANAG<span class="hps">....</span> <span class="hps">How did you start</span> <span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">what prompted you</span> <span class="hps">to undertake</span> <span class="hps">your path to</span> <span class="hps">expertise in</span> <span class="hps">grappa and spirits</span>?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #073763;">PS : I distillati mi hanno affascinato fin da sempre, addirittura quando frequentavo il liceo. Poi la mia laurea in chimica mi ha dato le basi per la conoscenza tecnica della distillazione. Sapevo però che tra la teoria e la pratica c’è una grandissima differenza e mi sarebbe piaciuto imparare a degustare per aumentare la mia conoscenza. In Toscana non c’era l’ANAG, che conoscevo attraverso la stampa. Seppi per caso di un corso di assaggio ANAG a Livorno. Era il 2003. Da allora non mi sono più distaccata da questo mondo.</span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">The</span> <span class="hps">spirits</span> <span class="hps">have fascinated me</span> <span class="hps">since</span> <span class="hps">when</span> <span class="hps">i was at high school</span>. <span class="hps">Then my</span> <span class="hps">degree in chemistry</span> <span class="hps">gave me</span> <span class="hps">the foundation for the</span> <span class="hps">technical knowledge</span> <span class="hps">of distillation.</span> <span class="hps">I knew</span>, however, that <span class="hps">between</span> <span class="hps">theory and</span> <span class="hps">practice there is</span> <span class="hps">a huge</span> <span class="hps">difference</span> <span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">I would like to</span> <span class="hps">learn how to taste Grappa in order</span> <span class="hps">to increase my</span> <span class="hps">knowledge about spirits distillaion and production.</span> <span class="hps">In Tuscany</span> <span class="hps">there was no</span> <span class="hps">ANAG</span>, I knew them <span class="hps">through the specialised press.</span> Then <span class="hps">I heard about</span> <span class="hps">a course for Grappa</span> <span class="hps">tasting</span> <span class="hps">by ANAG</span> <span class="hps">in Livorno</span>. <span class="hps">It was 2003</span>. <span class="hps">Since then</span> <span class="hps">I have never left</span><span class="hps"> this world.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Quali sono gli elementi che più ti affascinano del mondo delle grappe e dei distillati?</span><br />
<span class="hps">What are</span> <span class="hps">the elements that</span> <span class="hps">fascinate you</span> <span class="hps">in the world</span> <span class="hps">of grappa</span> <span class="hps">and spirits</span>?<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #073763;">PS : I profumi, la pazienza, la dedizione che ci vuole ad esprimere al meglio l’essenza delle materia prima. Un chimico e scrittore come Primo Levi, definisce così la distillazione :</span><br />
<span style="color: #073763;">"Distillare è bello. Prima di tutto, è un mestiere lento, filosofico e silenzioso, che ti occupa ma ti lascia tempo per pensare ad altro, un po’ come l’andare in bicicletta. Poi, perché comporta una metamorfosi: da liquido a vapore (invisibile), e da questo nuovamente a liquido; ma in questo doppio cammino, all’insù e all’ingiù, si raggiunge la purezza, condizione ambigua ed affascinante, che parte dalla chimica ed arriva molto lontano"</span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">The scents</span>, <span class="hps">the patience</span>, <span class="hps">the</span> <span class="hps">dedication it takes</span> <span class="hps">to</span> <span class="hps">best express</span> <span class="hps">the essence of the</span> <span class="hps">raw material.</span> <span class="hps">As</span> <span class="hps">a chemist and</span> <span class="hps">writer</span> <span class="hps">Primo Levi </span>defines <span class="hps">the</span> <span class="hps">distillation in this way</span>: <br /><span class="hps atn">"</span>Distilling <span class="hps">is beautiful.</span> <span class="hps">First of all</span>, it is a <span class="hps">slow</span> <span class="hps">job</span>, philosophical, and <span class="hps">quiet,</span> <span class="hps">that</span> need your <span class="hps">care</span> <span class="hps">but</span> <span class="hps">leaves you</span> <span class="hps">time to</span> <span class="hps">think about anything else</span>, <span class="hps">a bit</span> <span class="hps atn">'</span>like <span class="hps">riding a bike.</span> <span class="hps">Then</span>, <span class="hps">because it involves</span> <span class="hps">a</span> <span class="hps">metamorphosis</span> <span class="hps">from liquid to</span> <span class="hps">steam</span> <span class="hps">(invisible),</span> <span class="hps">and from this</span> invisible media <span class="hps">again</span> <span class="hps">to a visible</span> <span class="hps">liquid.</span> I<span class="hps">n this return journey</span>, <span class="hps">upwards</span> <span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">downwards</span>, we reach the <span class="hps">purity</span>, <span class="hps">ambiguous</span> <span class="hps">and fascinating</span> <span class="hps">condition</span>, <span class="hps">which starts from the</span> <span class="hps">chemistry</span> <span class="hps">and goes far away from it</span> <span class="hps atn">"</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Quali sono gli scopi principali di ANAG e quali le attività che svolge?</span><br />
<span class="hps">What are the</span> <span class="hps">main purposes</span> <span class="hps">of</span> <span class="hps">ANAG</span> <span class="hps">and what</span> <span class="hps">activities</span> <span class="hps">you do?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #073763;">PS : Gli scopi sono quelli di insegnare a degustare in modo da conoscere i prodotti ed imparare ad usare i propri sensi con fiducia, così che il “bere” sia un atto consapevole che porti alla fruizione di aromi, profumi e gusto qualitativamente elevati e non ad ingurgitare alcol al solo scopo di trangugiare qualsiasi cosa è nel bicchiere.</span><br />
<span class="hps">The goals</span> involve teaching to <span class="hps">taste</span> <span class="hps">in order to understand better</span><span class="hps"> the products</span> <span class="hps">and how to use</span> <span class="hps">the senses</span> <span class="hps">with confidence.</span> In this way <span class="hps">"drinking"</span> become <span class="hps">a conscious act</span> <span class="hps">that leads</span> <span class="hps">to the use of</span> <span class="hps">flavors,</span> <span class="hps">aromas and</span> <span class="hps">tastes of</span> <span class="hps">high</span> <span class="hps">quality</span> <span class="hps">and not</span> <span class="hps">to swallow</span> <span class="hps">alcohol</span> <span class="hps">just to</span> <span class="hps">gobble</span> <span class="hps">everything</span> <span class="hps">is</span> <span class="hps">in the glass.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Potremmo affermare che ANAG promuove la cultura “saper gustare”. Che differenza c’è tra bere una grappa e conoscere la grappa che si sta bevendo?</span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">We could say that</span> <span class="hps">ANAG</span> <span class="hps">promotes the culture of</span> <span class="hps">"knowing how to</span> <span class="hps">enjoy</span>." <span class="hps">What is the difference</span> <span class="hps">between drinking</span> <span class="hps">a</span> grappa <span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">understanding the grappa</span> <span class="hps">you are drinking</span>?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #073763;">PS : Conoscere è un atto volontario. Ci vuole tecnica, occorre evere imparato le basi dell’accostamento del bicchiere al naso, i difetti ed i pregi. La grappa si degusta con il naso, perché la parte olfattiva è importante, questo vale per tutti i distillati, e prima di metterla in bocca c’è una lunga fase di conoscenza di quello che hai nel bicchiere. E’ come quando ti avvicini ad una persona nuova: oltre all’aspetto facilmente visibile hai bisogno di conoscerne il carattere.</span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">Knowing is</span> <span class="hps">a voluntary act</span>. <span class="hps">It requires</span> <span class="hps">technique</span>, you must have <span class="hps">learned the basics</span> <span class="hps">of the combination</span> <span class="hps">of the glass</span> <span class="hps">nose</span>, the flaws <span class="hps">and merits</span>. <span class="hps">The</span> grappa is mainly tasted with the<span class="hps"> nose (</span> this actually apply to <span class="hps">all</span> <span class="hps">spirits)</span> <span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">before putting it</span> <span class="hps">in the mouth</span> <span class="hps">there is a long</span> <span class="hps">phase</span> <span class="hps">of</span> <span class="hps">knowledge</span> <span class="hps">of what you have</span> <span class="hps">in the glass.</span> <span class="hps">It 's like</span> <span class="hps">when</span> <span class="hps">you approach</span> <span class="hps">a new person</span>: <span class="hps">besides he is</span> <span class="hps">easily</span> <span class="hps">visible</span> <span class="hps">you need</span> <span class="hps">to know about their</span> <span class="hps">character.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Quanto incide sulla qualità del prodotto finale la competenza e la professionalità di chi “pensa”, progetta e costruisce la distilleria?</span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">How much the</span> <span class="hps">expertise and</span> <span class="hps">professionalism of those who</span> <span class="hps">"think"</span>, <span class="hps">designe and built</span> <span class="hps">the</span> <span class="hps">distillery does affect the </span><span class="hps">quality</span> <span class="hps">of the final product</span>?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #073763;">PS : Penso sia importantissimo. Per la riuscita di un buon distillato alcolico, ci vogliono tre elementi: un’ottima materia prima, un ottimo impianto di distillazione e un bravo mastro distillatore.</span> <br />
<span class="hps">I think it's</span> <span class="hps">very important</span>. <span class="hps">For the</span> <span class="hps">success of a good</span> <span class="hps">alcoholic distillate</span>, it takes <span class="hps">three elements:</span> <span class="hps">an excellent raw material</span>, an excellent <span class="hps">distillation plant</span> <span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">a good</span> <span class="hps">master distiller</span>.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Ritieni auspicabile la diffusione di una maggior cultura del bere, magari anche tra le giovani generazioni? </span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">Do you think that it would be</span><span class="hps"> desirable to</span><span class="hps"> spread a</span> <span class="hps">greater</span> <span class="hps">culture of drinking</span>, <span class="hps">maybe even</span> <span class="hps">among the younger generation</span>?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #073763;">PS : Sarebbe veramente fondamentale e noi siamo un’associazione che lavoriamo per questo. Non è facile raggiungere le giovani generazioni perché per noi, ormai non più giovani, approcciarsi alle loro modalità è misterioso, però vedo che quando facciamo degustazioni in luoghi frequentati dai giovani loro rimangono attenti a bocca aperta ad ascoltare e si appassionano. Bisogna spiegare senza giudicare o colpevolizzare.</span> <br />
<span class="hps">It would be really</span> <span class="hps">critical</span> <span class="hps">and as ANAG we are working</span> <span class="hps">for it.</span> <span class="hps">It is not easy</span> <span class="hps">to reach</span> <span class="hps">the younger generation</span> <span class="hps">because for us</span>, no longer <span class="hps">young</span>, to <span class="hps">approache</span> <span class="hps">their</span> ways is often challenging. Anyway <span class="hps">I see</span> <span class="hps">that when we do</span> <span class="hps">tastings</span> <span class="hps">in</span> <span class="hps">places frequented by</span> <span class="hps">young people they remain</span> <span class="hps">careful</span> <span class="hps">with his mouth open</span> <span class="hps">to hear and</span> they <span class="hps">are passionate about.</span> The subject of "drinking responsibly" <span class="hps">must be explained</span> <span class="hps">without judging or</span> <span class="hps">blaming</span>.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Cosa c’è dietro un’ottima grappa? </span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">What's behind</span> <span class="hps">a good</span> <span class="hps">brandy</span>? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #073763;">PS : Tanto impegno!</span><br />
<span style="color: #073763;">A lot of work !</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">MF : Vorrei fare con te, se sei d’accordo, una riflessione che tenga conto della differenza di genere. Pensi che incida una leadership femminile in ANAG? E se sì, in che modo?</span><span style="color: black;"><span class="hps">I would like to</span> <span class="hps">do with you,</span> <span class="hps">if</span> <span class="hps">you agree,</span> <span class="hps">a</span> <span class="hps">reflection</span> <span class="hps">that takes account</span> <span class="hps">of gender difference</span>. <span class="hps">Do you think that <span class="hps">a</span> <span class="hps">women's leadership</span> <span class="hps">in</span> <span class="hps">ANAG will have an impact </span></span> ? <span class="hps">And if so,</span> <span class="hps">how?</span></span><br />
<br />

Innanzi tutto spero che avere una donna presidente invogli altre donne ad avvicinarsi a questo modo dei distillati, un po’ ostico, e poi spero che la qualità femminile del sapere organizzare e guidare con fermezza ma nello stesso tempo con delicatezza, porti frutti.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La conferenza, che costituisce uno degli eventi più autorevoli e significativi nel settore, organizzato dall'Institute of Brewing and Distilling (IBD) nella regione che più di ogni altra, a livello mondiale, incarna il concetto di eccellenza nella distillazione. La Scozia vanta infatti un ineguagliabile patrimonio di storia e cultura in materia, presentandosi così come custode privilegiata di tradizioni e saperi secolari propri dell'arte distillatoria.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuttavia, pur rispettando l'idea fondamentale di tradizione, la Conferenza focalizza quest'anno la propria attenzione sul concetto di innovazione, sulle nuove sfide che il futuro ci pone davanti e sulle nuove soluzioni con cui rispondere.<b> </b></span></div>

<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A very good news: Siena, the Tuscan district of Green Engineering's headquarters, is the first CARBON FREE province in Europe</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Typical landscape of the Siena countryside</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il nostro territorio ha infatti raggiunto un bilancio a emissioni zero di anidride carbonica (CO2), con una capacità di assorbimento delle emissioni dei gas a effetto serra addirittura del 102%.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #0b5394;">As a matter of fact, our land has reached a balance of zero carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, with an adsorbing capacity of the greenhouse effect gas of even 102%.</span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il progetto "Siena Carbon Free 2015" è partito qualche anno fa con l'obiettivo, appunto, di fare del territorio senese la prima vasta area ad emissioni zero entro l'anno 2015.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lo scopo prefissato è stato raggiunto due anni prima rispetto a quanto stabilito, e addirittura sette anni prima rispetto alle direttive europee per il 2020.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The "Siena Carbon Free 2015" project started some years ago with the scope of having a wide area - the sienese province - with zero emissions within 2015.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The goal was achieved two years in advance with respect to what established, and even seven years before the European Directives for 2020.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il traguardo è stato raggiunto grazie all'adozione di precise strategie: la riduzione di consumi da fonti fossili, l'aumento delle energie rinnovabili e degli interventi di efficienza energetica, la tutela del patrimonio forestale. L'adozione di queste strategie da da parte della virtuosa Amministrazione Provinciale si è sommato all'indubbio vantaggio naturale di cui il territorio gode: qui infatti la produzione geotermica copre da sola quasi il 90% del fabbisogno elettrico, senza contare che metà del territorio senese è coperto da aree boschive. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The goal was achieved by adopting some specific strategies : the reduction of fossil fuels consumption, the augmentation of renewable energies and eneregy efficiency interventions, the forestry protection. In addiction to these strategies adopted by the virtuos local Administrators, we have to consider the natural advantage of Siena territory: here the gethermal production covers about 90% of the energy requirements and half of the territory is covered by woods. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">La geotermia senese, con i famosi soffioni di Larderello (emissioni violente di vapore acqueo ad alta pressione e temperatura, che fuoriescono da spaccature del suolo o perforazioni artificiali) ha origini antiche in questo territorio e da sempre risulta perfettamente integrata con l'ambiente. All'argomento è stato dedicato addirittura un museo (Museo della Geotermia di Larderello) che </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica; text-align: justify;">racconta la storia dell'energia geotermica illustrando le tecniche di ricerca e perforazione tramite modelli ed ausili multimediali. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; line-height: 19.2px;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: sans-serif; line-height: 19.2px;"><span style="color: #0b5394;">The sienese geothermal energy, with the famous "soffioni di Larderello" (violent water vapour eruptions at high pressure and temparature, coming out from cracks in the soil or artifical perforations) has ancient origins in this territory and is perfectly integrated with the environment. The matter is also sbuject of a specific Museum (Museum of the Geothermal Energy of Larderello) which is dedicated to the history of the geothermal energy by illustrating the research and drilling techniques through models and multimedia aids.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; line-height: 19.2px;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anche Green Engineering ha contribuito con un proprio progetto ad alimentare questo circolo virtuoso.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #0b5394;">Green Engineering too is part of this virtuous circle with a project of some years ago that exploits geothermal energy and district heating for household.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Il vantaggio naturale non toglie niente al merito di un territorio in cui la sensibilità e il rispetto verso l'ambiente è sempre stata un valore fondamentale. Infatti dal 2006 al 2011 le emissioni si sono ridotte del 22%, con una immissione in atmosfera di 400 mila tonnellate di CO2 in meno.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #0b5394;">However, the natural advantage does not reduce the worth of a land whose respect end sensitivity to the environment have always been core values. In fact, from 2006 to 2011, the CO2 emissions have decreased of 22%, with an input to the atmosphere of 400.000 tons od CO2 less</span>.</span><br />

On the <a href="http://www.rumsixtysix.com/" target="_blank">Rum SixtySix website</a> we have found the link to a very nice video showing the Foursquare Rum Distillery in Barbados, realised by us as <a href="http://www.greeneng.it/" target="_blank">Green Engineering</a> in 1996 . </div>

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Rum SixtySix is a new Rum distilled, bottled and aged at the Foursquare Rum Distillery . It's quite a complex room, being aged for a minimum of 12 years, and at the same time very well balanced as reported by " The Whisky Magazine" . </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the reson of this balance come from the fact that the Rum is a blend of some spirits distilled in traditional copper pot-stills and in continuous still . The continuous still at the Foursquare Rum Distillery has been designed and realised by <a href="http://www.greeneng.it/" target="_blank">Green Engineering</a> specifically for Rum production, and it keeps a similar configuration and working principle of the old Coffey Stills, patented by Aeneas Coffey in 1830 .</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While the fraction of spirit coming from the copper pot-still offers a "heavier" and stronger character, with some toasted notes, the spirit from the continuous still adds some smoothness , balance and freshness . </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Deciding the spcific mix of fractions coming from the pot-still and the continuous still is really an art, but it also requires a very high and deep knowoledge of the distillation process and really a lot of experience (many and many trail & error cycles) . In the case of Rum SixtySix , these requirements are guaranteed by Richard Seale, the director of Foursquare Rum Distillery .</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The name SixtSix comes from Barbados year of indipendence , 30-November-1966 ; on the bottle the Rum SixySix adopted the Barbados national coat of arms with the motto "Pride and Industry" .</div>

The Town of Colle Val d'Elsa has organised the first edition of "Vino Arte Cinema" (not difficult to translate it in english as Wine, Art and Cinema) , a little wine tasting event that is at the same time an exhibition of some of the most representative forms of art of our little town in the heart of the Siena province. The event has been hosted by the "Teatro del Popolo" (again easy in english : People's theatre) , and this has given the chance of playing a short movie titled "Slow Food Story" , that naturally is half-way between a movie and a documentary about the slow-food concept, very important in the Chianti area, where good wine and good food represents a very industry.</div>

At "Vino Arte Cinema" i also met my friend Beppe Pandolfo, production manager at "Distillerie Bonollo" and also responsible of the ANAG (national association for grappa tasting) for the Siena province. The Distillerie Bonollo are based near Siena and produce a very wide selection of Grappa from San Giovese and other kind of grapes . </div>

Finally i spent about half an hour at the booth of <a href="http://www.lombardievisconti.com/" target="_blank">"Lombardi e Visconti"</a> . This company is specialised in the production of herbal liquors, and the selection presented at "Vino Arte Cinema" was really nice . At the booth i had a long chat with the owner, Aurelio Visconti, that knows everything about alcoholic maceration of aromatic herbs . In all the italian regions there is a strong and old tradition in herbal liquors, born because of the monks that used this process to extract active compounds useful as medicines .The many hermitages all over the centre of Italy , usually build among greenwoods, helped to diffuse both use and production of herbal liquors, so that thousands of recipies have been created. Most of them have been forgotten in the loneliness of the hermitages, but it is comforting to know that sometime a new company reveals these secrets, creating new products , putting it in a nice, modern dressing, and forcing again into the market. Maybe helped by some innovtive bartender? We will see ... </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Grazie al proprio centro di ricerca, Green Engineering può effettuare analisi accurate di olii essenziali, al fine di caratterizzarne la composizione e la purezza ( Fig. 1)</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Sia
che si tratti di piccole apparecchiature che di strutture più complesse, il fattore chiave è rappresentato dal giusto mix di tradizione, tecnologia e prezzi competitivi, oltre al costante supporto tecnico e gestionale al cliente.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Thanks to C.R.E.A., its Research Centre, Green Engineering can make accurate essential oils analysis, with the scope of obtaining the highest characterization of composition and pureness </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">For smal equipment, pot stills, or more sophisticated distillation plants, the key factor is the right mix of tradition, technology and competitive prices, as well as a constant technical and management support to the Client.</span></div>

<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://realmccoyspirits.com/" target="_blank">The Real McCoy</a></span></strong> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The Real McCoy is a rum distilled in Barbados at the Foursquare Rum Distillery, realised by Green Engineering in 1996 and directed by Mr. Richard Seale . </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The name "Real McCoy" comes from <strong>William Frederick McCoy</strong> (1877 – December 30, 1948), also known as "Bill" McCoy. He was an American sea captain and in 1920, when prohibition began in the United States, he started to become famous as the first "rum runner" , trading Rum from the Bahamas to the East Coast of the US . The history is succesfully summarised in the flag of the rum brand, reporting "established in 1920" and "prohibition tradition".</div>

Capt. McCoy, a nondrinker who never touched liquor , took pride in the fact that he never paid a cent to organized crime, politicians, or law enforcement for protection. Unlike many operations that illegally produced and smuggled alcohol for consumption during Prohibition, McCoy sold his merchandise unadulterated, uncut and clean.</div>

<a href="http://theposhmakers.com/index.html" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Virgin Gorda Rum</span></a><br />
<br />
Here is the Virgin Gorda Rum , <strong><u>winner of the Boutique Rum of the year 2013</u></strong><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong></strong> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Virgin Gorda</strong> is a golden rum, blended from rums from the British Caribbean islands; Barbados, Trinidad and Jamaica, produced by the distillation of fermented sugar cane, in pot-stills. After distillation, the rums go through a natural aging process in old, American Oak Bourbon barrels. Achieving an average age of 7 years, with 20% of 8 year old rum included in the blend. <br />
<br />
A differentiating factor of Virgin Gorda compared with the majority of rums is its 100% natural state; no color, flavor or aroma additives are used. Trinidad provides refreshing notes and vanilla characteristics. Jamaica adds body and a strong backbone from the molasses. Barbados provides the strongest woody, aged characteristics, being the oldest rum of the blend with 8 years ageing. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Rum name "Virgin Gorda" comes Cristoforo Colombo. In fact, during his navigation from Europe to the West Indies, Colombo was fashinated by the provoking image of a large island similar to a reclining woman; for this reason he gave the name "Virgen Gorda" to the island , name that was then anglicised becoming "Virgin Gorda" . By the end of 17th century its territory became part of the British Virgin Islands. </div>

La Sezione di Siena dell ANAG (Associazione Nazionale Assaggiatori di Grappe ed Acqueviti) sta organizzando presso la Distilleria Bonollo di Torrita di Siena un Corso di Primo Livello per assaggiatori di grappe ed acqueviti .</div>
<div>
Le mie precedenti esperienze di degustazione di distillati sono sempre state allestero , in occasione delle tante manifestazioni a cui partecipiamo come azienda , oppure direttamente presso le distillerie, quando assaggiare i distillati è necessario per capire come si sta comportanto la distilleria e su quali particolari sezioni del processo produttivo è possibile intervenire per migliorare la qualità del prodotto.</div>
<div>
Conoscendo personalmente l'organizzatore di questo corso (Giuseppe Pandolfo, delle Distillerie Bonollo) ho partecipato con grande piacere a questo corso, che rappresenta una occasione unica non solo per gustare ottime grappe ed incrementare le proprie conoscenze su questo mondo, ma soprattutto per condividere questa passione con i tanti estimatori del distillato nazionale , estimatori che vengono da i pi disparati settori della filiera della produzione della grappa : dagli enologi che seguono la nascita dei vini da cui si ricavano le vinacce (la materia prima per la produzione della grappa) ai barman e ristoratori che si occupano di far conoscere il prodotto finale ai consumatori .</div>

Come per tutti gli altri distillati, imparare a valutare i profumi delle grappe è essenziale per distinguere i vitigni di origine, le tecniche di lavorazione delle vinacce e il tipo di distillazione . Oltre alla teoria quindi, è essenziale la pratica (ed ovviamente è la parte pi interessante) .<br />

In questa foto, io (al centro) sorseggio un bicchiere d'acqua per passare da una grappa all'altra evitando di sovrappore i sapori (per la stessa finalità, alcuni esperti consigliano di sorseggiare un bicchiere di latte) :<br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Green Engineering sta conducendo una nuova importante ricerca presso <span style="font-size: small;">il</span> C.R.E.A. , il centro di ricerca di cui Green Engineering <span style="font-size: small;">è socio fondatore insieme al<span style="font-size: small;">l'Università di Siena , al Comune di Colle di Val d'Elsa <span style="font-size: small;">ed altre realtà industriali della Provincia di Siena<span style="font-size: small;">. </span></span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">In particolare, <span style="font-size: small;">t</span></span>ramite il gruppo coordinato dal Prof.Rolando Barbucci
costituito da 7 laureati in Chimica o in Chimica e Tecnologie Farmaceutiche, Green Engineering <span style="font-size: small;">e C.R.E.A<span style="font-size: small;">. stanno collaborando</span></span> per ottenere dei
nuovi<span style="font-size: small;"> </span>materiali nano strutturati che serviranno ad abbattere quantità di inquinanti molto superiori rispetto a quelle adsorbibili
mediante le tecnologie attualmente presenti sul mercato. Il mondo dell’infinitamente piccolo è infatti
estremamente reattivo all’ambiente e quindi tramite una buona “progettazione”
di queste piccolissime strutture è possibile purificare una grande varietà di
sostanze . </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">I materiali in corso di
sviluppo potranno essere utilizzati in diversi settori nei quali si richiede
una grande capacità di purificazione : dal settore <span style="font-size: small;">dei biocarburanti</span> a quello del
trattamento degli inquinanti, sia liquidi sia gassosi. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">I primi risultati di
questa ricerca, tuttora in corso, sono risultati particolarmente evidenti
grazie alla recente installazione , presso il C.R.E.A. di Colle, di un
nuovissimo Microscopio a Scansione Elettronica (FESEM) , in grado di
“fotografare” piccolissime superfici con dettagli visibili anche nella scala dei
nanometri. Lo strumento è stato acquistato prevalentemente con i fondi della
Regione ed in parte con i fondi messi a disposizione dal Prof.Barbucc<span style="font-size: small;">i tramite il C.R.I.S<span style="font-size: small;">.M.A. </span></span></span><br />

Il "FESEM" è un particolare tipo di microscopio a scansione elettronica , detto ad emissione di campo (da cui FE - SEM Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope) .</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Mentre i tradizionali microscopi ottici sfruttano la luce per osservare un campione , i microscopi a scansione elettronica (SEM) utilizzano un fascio di elettroni che attraversa il campione e viene rilevato da un particolare sensore. Il sensore, in base alla "deviazione" subita dagli elettroni del fascio durante l'attraversamento del campione, ricostruisce la struttura del campione attraversato .</div>

Un computer, tramite un software di elaborazione , trasforma il segnale ricevuto dal detector in una immagine simile ad una fotogrfia . La tecnologia SEM permette l'osservazione di scale nanometriche , anche di oggetti non trasparenti alla luce , consentendo quindi l'indagine di nanostrutture tridimensionali di minerali e metalli . </div>

<span class="Description_Productinfo" itemprop="name">The article explains very well the main production techniques that characterises the work at Foursquare , revealed by its "guru" , Mr. Richard Seale , and its staff .</span><br />
<span class="Description_Productinfo" itemprop="name">In particular the article also describes some features often "forgotten" about the Rum Production . An example is the problem of the waste water treatment : the slops from a distillery can be, in fact, very pollutant for the environment. About this particular subject, the article underlines the environmental technologies used at the Foursquare Distillery in order to clean all the wastes and to transform the byproducts into products useful for the agricolture. In particular the article explains how the spent wash are evaporated in the Green Engineering evaporation unit, allowing to recover clean water and amendants for the crops . In this way most of the wastes at Foursquare are recycled into valuable products, helping to keep clean the beautiful environment of Barbados and helping the sustainability of the production .</span>

<br />
Anche questo anno abbiamo rispettato la tradizione di fare alcune foto che rappresentino il natale nella nostra provincia ; come ogni anno abbiamo scelto una foto per poi farne la cartolina di auguri ufficiale della nostra società .<br />
<br />
<span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span class="hps">Also this year</span> <span class="hps">we have respected</span> <span class="hps">the tradition of making</span> <span class="hps">some photos</span> <span class="hps">that represent</span> <span class="hps">Christmas</span> <span class="hps">in our province</span><span class="">. Then,</span> <span class="hps">as every year</span>, <span class="hps">we have</span> <span class="hps">selected a photo</span> <span class="hps">to</span> <span class="hps">make</span> <span class="hps">the</span> <span class="hps">official</span> <span class="hps">greeting card</span> <span class="hps">of our Company.</span></span> <br />
<br />
Nel fare gli auguri a tutti i nostri clienti, collaboratori ed in generale a tutte le persone che ci seguono, vogliamo condividere con tutti voi le foto che siamo riusciti a raccogliere questo anno .<br />

<br />
Il soggetto che abbiamo scelto è stato il mercatino di natale di Piazza del Campo . Nessun riferimento esplicito al natale : nessun abete, nessun presepio, nessuna particolare scritta luminosa. Eppure le luci calde, i bambini che girano tra bancarelle piene di dolci e giocattoli, i ragazzi e le ragazze che cercano oggettini da regalare ci hanno comunicato un'immagine chiara e "pacifica" del natale, meno scintillante forse ma più intima . <span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span class="hps"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span class="hps">The</span> main subject<span class="hps"> that we</span> <span class="hps">have chosen this year is the</span> <span class="hps">Christmas market</span> <span class="hps">in Piazza</span> <span class="hps">del Campo, the famous place of the "Palio di Siena" horse race.</span> <span class="hps">No explicit reference</span> <span class="hps">to Christmas</span>: No <span class="hps">pine</span>, no <span class="hps">crib</span>, no particular <span class="hps">blinking light</span>. <span class="hps">Yet the</span> <span class="hps">warm lights</span><span class="">, the children</span> <span class="hps">running</span> <span class="hps">around the stalls</span> <span class="hps">full of sweets</span> <span class="hps">and toys,</span> <span class="hps">boys and</span> <span class="hps">girls looking for</span> <span class="hps">trinkets</span>, comunicate<span class="hps"></span> <span class="hps">us</span> <span class="hps">a clear</span> <span class="hps"></span><span class="hps">and</span> <span class="hps">"peaceful"</span> <span class="hps"></span></span><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span class="hps">statement </span></span><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span class="hps">of Christmas,</span> <span class="hps">perhaps</span> <span class="hps">less</span> <span class="hps">shiny</span> <span class="hps">but more</span> <span class="hps">intimate</span></span> .<br />

This year we have been again at the Rum Fest in London, one of the most important Festival for Rum enthusiasts in the world.<br />
We found a smaller Rum Fest , with respect to the 2011 , with smaller stands and with some "big guys" missing : Captain Morgan and Havana Club .<br />
Many people ask us why we go there, since that's most a consumer event . The reason is very easy ...we love Rum, and not only as drink itself, but the culture , the traditions and the personal histories that are hidden in each golden bottle. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Each year we know new people, from the large brand to the smaller ones, which very often are family companies . </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The following brand is one of the brand that in these years seems to offer a very elegant taste , perfectly reflected by the choice of the bottle. The name is Rum St.Barth :</div>
