Another Bioethanol Order from the USA for Lurgi

23-Oct-2006

Calgren Renewable fuels, LLC, Pixley, USA, commissioned Lurgi, a subsidiary of the GEA Group, with the construction of a bioethanol plant. The plant is to go on stream in early 2008 and generate more than 150,000 tpy of bioethanol from corn. As a by-product the plant produces distiller's grain, a particularly high-protein animal feed that is to be sold directly to the neighboring dairy farms.

Lurgi will build the plant in California on a lump sum turnkey basis. The contract has a value of over EUR 73 million and is already Lurgi's sixth order of this kind in the USA this year.
