RAPID CITY, S.D., Jan. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- In a development that could dramatically advance the renewable fuels industry, cellulosic ethanol is now in production at the first small scale waste wood commercial facility operating in the U.S. Located just 1 mile South of Upton, Wyoming, the plant was engineered, constructed and is operated by KL Process Design Group (KL). This is the result of six years of development efforts between KL and the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology.
KL's cellulosic ethanol plant is converting waste wood into a renewable fuel. "It is now possible to economically convert discarded wood into a clean burning, sustainable alternate motor fuel," said Randy Kramer, president of KL Process Design Group, a design firm that has been working in corn ethanol. "We're proud of what this small company has accomplished, and believe that our design will be a cornerstone from which we can build our country's renewable fuel infrastructure providing a better source of motor fuel, starting today."
