Angel Yeast ramps up sustainability efforts in yeast for ethanol fuel production

April 24, 2022 |

In China, Angel Yeast, a major yeast supplier and technology provider of ethanol fuel production, shared plans to make more concrete moves to drive sustainable development with the aim to use tech innovation to have a clean, pollution-free and environmentally friendly manufacturing process for producing its yeast.

To achieve this, Angel Yeast poured 475 million yuan into research and development in 2021. It has also set up intelligent and “green” factories for yeast production, where all the production lines are automated, in order to improve efficiency and reduce emissions.

To reduce coal-burning in boilers, Angel Yeast recycles methane from wastewater. The total amount of methane recycled last year reached 16.89 million cubic meters.

In 2021, Angel Yeast completed 28 technological transformation projects to reduce emissions, cutting a total of 19,700 tons of carbon dioxide emissions. The company also uses yeast fermentation broth to produce organic fertilizer, driving sustainable development in agriculture.
