Carlsberg Young Scientists Community

The best job for the world. Probably.

The Young Scientists Community’s innovative projects are setting new industry standards for science-based, partnership-driven sustainability research. In 2019 they explored solutions for cutting water waste from cleaning and up-cycling wastewater, as well as ways to balance and reduce energy requirements throughout our breweries.

Their research includes building a digital twin of our breweries. This way they can identify ways to maximise energy and water efficiency, and evaluate the impact of new solutions at industrial scale.

The Community is also assessing the viability of new sources of energy for the decarbonization of our breweries, such as using the heat of the sun to produce steam for the brewing process.

To reduce our water intake, the Community is exploring new technologies to valorize brewery effluents, with a focus on recycling and re-integrating water streams back into the process.
