Cover Story
Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Held for EMD-Millipore Biomass Plant
Jaffrey, NH June 4 saw the ribbon
cutting of the new energy-efficient, 20
MMBtu Biomass Central Heating Plant
at EMD-Millipores Jaffrey campus, a
project that had been in planning since
2007. Designed and managed by RDK
Engineers, the $9 million projects focus
on sustainable energy has revolutionized
the Jaffrey facilitys cost-effectiveness.
As the largest plant of its type in New
Hampshire serving an industrial facility,
the Biomass Central Heating Plant really
is, as EMD Millipores Kate Cingolani
puts it, a model to look to in the state.
Led by RDK principal and project
manager, Dan Wall, PE, LEED AP,
the project involved replacing the 14
oil-fired boilers for steam, heating, and
process loads, and transitioning them to
a biomass system for sustainable energy.
The biomass plant saves on both heating
and cooling, controls emissions, and
enables future on-site turbine-generated
electricity production. The project also
greatly improves firm, fixed capacity to
ensure uninterrupted manufactory.
