Range Fuels Inc. will build Georgia's first wood-based cellulosic ethanol plant in Treutlen County, Gov. Sonny Perdue announced Wednesday at the Georgia Agribusiness Council's annual State Legislative Breakfast.
Colorado-based cellulosic ethanol company Range Fuels believes its plant, plus others to follow, will be able to produce more than 1 billion gallons of ethanol a year. The company's first plant will create 69 jobs in the Treutlen area.
Wood waste from the state's millions of acres of indigenous Georgia pine trees will be the main source of biomass for the ethanol production. While most domestic ethanol production requires corn as a feedstock, Range Fuels' proprietary technology transforms otherwise useless products such as agricultural wastes, grasses, cornstalks and wood waste, as well as hog manure, municipal garbage, sawdust and paper pulp, into ethanol through a thermal conversion process. This technology will be proven on a commercial scale in Georgia, Perdue said.
"Today's announcement is not only great news for Range Fuels and Treutlen County, but also our state's forestry industry and Georgia's continued push to encourage bio-fuels developed from home-grown products," Perdue said. "Georgia will be a national leader in cellulosic ethanol, and Range Fuel's investments here will be a major step forward helping us address our state's long-term energy issues."
