BioGasol’s Sustainable Ethanol Solution – Cost effectiveness and worldwide flexibility of the process technology convinces
It is not only a question of finding a sustainable alternative to oil derived transport fuels. The question is also, how to produce it the most sustainable and cost-effective way. BioGasol has the solution.
BioGasol is a Danish pioneer within the production of cellulosic bioethanol and was among the first in the world to operate a fully integrated biomass-to-ethanol pilot plant, converting straw into ethanol and other energy products with reuse of process water. Today BioGasol has secured public grants for two demonstration plant projects, one in Denmark on the Island of Bornholm, and one in the United States, to give proof of the commercial and technical feasibility as well as demonstrating the feedstock flexibility of BioGasol’s process technology. “Feedstock flexibility and low water consumption are the key aspects for a worldwide flexibility for the application of our technology”, says CEO Anders Weber.
BioGasol’s key technologies are a highly effective thermo-chemical pretreatment and a unique C5 fermentation, that ensures low production costs.. The production process runs energy self sufficient with a surplus of energy for export. “It is estimated that our first commercial plant will produce ethanol at a cost which is competitive to oil derived transport fuels”, says Anders Weber.
Meet BioGasol at Bright Green Exhibition from December 12 – 13, 2009, at the Copenhagen Forum, stand 203.
