Cellulosic-fucl fail

摘要

Iogen, one of the world's leading producers of cellulosic fuels (made from straw and other plant waste), has scrapped plans to build a commercial-scale plant in southern Manitoba, Canada. The firm, which is based in Ottawa, had planned to build the plant in partnership with its joint owner, the oil giant Royal Dutch Shell. The 30 April announcement did not explain why the project was scrapped, but a municipal official in Manitoba has said that Shell told him the costs were too high.
