Greenshift Featured In EPA Study!

Tons of information and pictures.

"GreenShift spoke of three of the most significant effects of extracting corn oil
from any ethanol plant:
First: The energy savings from installing corn oil extraction are substantial, reducing
energy use to manufacture ethanol by as much as 25 percent. As a result, GHG
emissions are actually 29 percent less than gasoline.
Second: Corn oil extraction after fermentation allows a dry mill ethanol plant to produce 11
percent more total fuel energy by manufacturing additional renewable biofuels from
its corn oil byproduct. Corn oil is an excellent feedstock for biodiesel and renewable
diesel.
Third: Success is just beginning. Additional corn oil extraction efficiency, coupled with corn
varieties now available that have higher corn oil content (and the same starch
content), have the potential to more than double these benefits."
