Closed loop ethanol

Posted in Bioenergy, Cellulose ethanol by qibioenergy on March 28th, 2008

E3 BioFuels‘ patented technology brings together three proven components into a single, closed-loop system, with astonishing results for the environment and the ethanol business.

  1. A large cattle feedlot or dairy that produces large quantities of cow manure needing treatment.
  2. An anaerobic digester that transforms the cow manure into biogas.
  3. An ethanol plant that runs on the biogas instead of natural gas or coal, and whose leftover wet grain is fed back to the cattle.

The result is an energy-efficient, low-cost solution to America’s energy needs. Not only that, but the process of creating this ethanol doesn’t contribute to global warming and actually reduces air and water pollution.
