"Given the rapid expansion of the domestic ethanol industry, there has been a concerted market push of late for new technologies that will enhance ethanol yields and improve co-product values," said Michael Stern, Ph.D. chief executive officer of Renessen. "Our process does both, and also will greatly reduce the need for natural gas to dry the non-fermentable material. This is a great opportunity for U.S. corn growers, livestock producers, and the biofuels industry as a whole."
The plant, which is slated to open in January 2007, will produce:
- corn oil for food and biodiesel
- nutrient-rich feed ingredient for use in swine and poultry production
- ethanol, and
- animal feeds including distiller's dried grains with solubles(DGGS, a primary by-product of ethanol production).
This early on, Renessen already plans to actively seek ethanol partners for commercialization of the technology.
