Enerkem and GreenField Ethanol Announce Quebec's First Waste-to-Biofuels Production Facility

摘要

The Government of Quebec has announced its plan to inject $27 million in Quebec's first full-scale commercial cellulosic ethanol plant through the Ministry of Natural Resources and Wildlife and Investissement Quebec. This facility will be built and operated by a joint venture partnership formed by Enerkem and GreenField Ethanol.The future plant will be located in Varennes, Quebec, and use Enerkem's proprietary technology to convert nonrecyclable municipal solid waste into biofuels. With a full-scale waste-to-biofuels facility under construction in Edmonton, Alberta, and another one under development in Mississippi, the Varennes facility represents Enerkem's third full-scale commercial project.
