Emerson Automation Solutions reported April 9 that it's collaborating with Colorado State University (CSU) to build the Emerson Brewing Innovation Center, where students will get hands-on experience using the latest automation technologies. Funded by a joint investment, the center will serve as the main educational hub for the Fermentation Sciences and Technology program and will reinforce advanced competencies for digital transformation. The Emerson Brewing Innovation Center will open this fall on CSU’s main Fort Collins campus, and feature two brewing systems. Emerson Impact Partner Lakeside will implement elements of Emerson’s Plantweb portfolio used in brewing, such as a DeltaV DCS, Micro Motion flowmeters, Rosemount measurement technology and ASCO and Baumann valves.
