Bioethanol is created by fermenting biomass substances such as wheat, maize straw, grasses and wood.
The drive to refine biotechnologies that turn renewable raw materials into ethanol is inspired by the prospect of a sustainable, CO2-neutral liquid fuel. Dwindling crude oil resources and rising oil prices are another key motivator.
Industrial-scale gasification of biomass enables regenerative raw materials such as straw, organic waste or wood byproducts to be harnessed as potential sources of fuel. Our Engineering Division is a trusted partner for many companies involved in this process chain.
