• Develop a modelling tool to perform a mass-energy balance in a brewery under different production scenarios (seasonality effect, # production batches/shifts, different worth and product types, etc.), all main processes, sub-processes, and machinery/equipment should be mapped, included and displayed by the modelling tool.
• Calculate the technological limits based on the current brewery setup including as follows:
  • Energy use (Electricity and Thermal)
  • Water use
  • Wastewater generation
  • CO2 emissions
  • Use of raw material
  • Production of waste (other than water)
