D|D for Cellulosic Ethanol Plant in Hugoton

The commercial-scale, cellulosic ethanol facility in Hugoton utilizes Abengoa’s own enzymatic hydrolysis technology to produce 25 million gallons of ethanol and 21 megawatts of electricity from 300,000 tons of biomass per year.
Implemented in 2014, VOGELBUSCH USA Inc. provided process design for the distillation and molecular sieve dehydration areas and also supplied critical equipment for the molecular sieve unit. The unit was transferred to Synata Bio in 2017.
