Abengoa's new Netherlands ethanol project supplying 300K tons of CO2 to merchant markets

September 24, 2010 |

In Holland, Abengoa Bioenergia is gaining value by supplying 300,000 tons of carbon dioxide from its Rotterdam Europoort ethanol facility to local green houses via pipelines.  This use of carbon dioxide allows green house operators to lower their consumption of natural gas, and further reduces GEI emissions, while at the same time increasing plant output.  The new ethanol facility has recently begun operations with outputs of 126.8 MGy and 360,000 tons of DGS per year, using 1.2 million tons of corn as feedstock.
