Ethanol Cooperative Installing Biomass Energy System For On-Site Energy Needs

This is the type of ethanol plant that will drastically improve the renewable energy balance of ethanol through the use of renewable process energy sources. All ethanol plants should consider using renewable energy sources such as methane from cattle manure, biomass, solar thermal, or waste heat from coal power plants. -- Jeffrey Goettemoeller

"The biomass gasification system will generate both thermal energy and electricity for the plant. The cooperative will cut its need for its current supply of natural gas and about 1/4 of its electricity needs."
