BlueFire launches cellulosic sugars subsidiary, SucreSource

In California, BlueFire Renewables has formed SucreSource, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary that will manufacture cellulosic sugars from biomass for Biofuel, Bioplastic and Specialty Chemical markets.

Established in November 2011, SucreSource will utilize BlueFire’s proven and patented high yield process of economically unlocking cellulosic sugars from biomass to produce multiple sugar streams for these growing markets.

SucreSource will capitalize on our existing process design packages, providing either a 34,000 tons per year or 163,000 tons per year source of cellulosic sugars. SucreSource is actively pursuing partnership opportunities to deploy the technology in a wide range of industries.
