Founded in 2014, The Engine Room is a New York City engineering and design firm that develops practical systems for distilleries, breweries, fermentation operations, and energy and water conservation projects. Its work grew from a specialty in distilleries and beverage production into cross-disciplinary process engineering, consulting, and research and development, including a patented vacuum distillation and concentration process reclaimed through its Arcane Technologies venture. The firm brings firsthand experience from both engineering and production environments to projects that span new facilities, retrofits, and experimental scale-ups.
