EcoCeres ships 100% ag waste-based cellulosic ethanol to Europe

In Hong Kong, EcoCeres announced its first shipment of 100% agricultural waste-produced cellulosic ethanol to the European markets, a milestone the company achieved after commissioning yet another ground-breaking facility in China. The shipment consists of 850 tons of cellulosic ethanol made from agricultural waste primarily corn cobs, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions by over 80% compared to traditional fossil fuels and is in alignment with the European Union’s Renewable Energy Directive as an advanced biofuel.
