GreenShift's #1 Customer, GPRE, Reports Tuesday...

GERS Q113 will be out soon as well...

The numbers will likely be released this Tuesday evening April, 30th.

What's good for GPRE is good for GERS...

GPRE has now stated some plants are doing .90 pounds of oil per bushel.

GERS' #1 largest customer just got a grant of $6.4M to fund a project that will demonstrate technologies to cost-effectively convert biomass into biofuel.

They're also talking about testing oil extraction technologies on their algae.

OMAHA, Neb., April 23, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Green Plains Renewable Energy, Inc. (GPRE) will hold a conference call to discuss its first quarter 2013 financial results on Wednesday, May 1, 2013 at 11:00 a.m. ET. Green Plains' participants will include Todd Becker, President and Chief Executive Officer, Jerry Peters, Chief Financial Officer, and Jeff Briggs, Chief Operating Officer. Following their presentation, participants will be available for a brief question and answer session.

BioProcess Algae Awarded $6.4 Million U.S. Department of Energy Grant to Develop Advanced Drop-in Biofuels for Military Jets and Ships

OMAHA, Neb., April 22, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioProcess Algae LLC has been selected to receive a grant of up to $6.4 million from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), as part of an innovative pilot-scale biorefinery project related to production of hydrocarbon fuels meeting military specification. The project will use renewable carbon dioxide, lignocellulosic sugars and waste heat through BioProcess Algae's Grower HarvesterTM technology platform, co-located with the Green Plains Renewable Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq:GPRE) ethanol plant in Shenandoah, Iowa.

"BioProcess Algae was the only algae platform chosen to be a part of this project by the DOE," said Todd Becker, President and CEO of Green Plains. "This project will link our commercial scale platform for growing and harvesting algal biomass with technology partners for conversion into advanced biofuels. While this is a project for the development of drop-in biofuels, we continue to focus our technology for growing and harvesting algae for feed, food or fuel."

"We believe our Grower Harvester platform will be vital in the development of this project with the DOE," added Tim Burns, President and CEO of BioProcess Algae. "For this project, we will integrate low-cost autotrophic algal production, accelerated lipid production, and lipid conversion in an effort to develop a cost-effective advanced biofuel for military needs. This development is consistent with our current plans to build the next phase of Grower Harvester reactors in Shenandoah."

The project will demonstrate technologies to cost-effectively convert biomass into advanced drop-in biofuels and the recipient is required to contribute a minimum of 50% matching funds for the project.

Amaizing Energy Settles Lawsuit With GreenShift

http://greenshift-gers.blogspot.com/2012/06/amaizing-settlement.html

Extraction Patent Ruling Favors GreenShift

A court ruling has been announced in favor of GreenShift on its ongoing patent battle against several ethanol producers and other entities for infringement of GreenShift’s corn oil extraction processes. Defendants in the litigation argued that GreenShift’s patents are limited to the recovery of at least 95% of the oil present in the concentrated thin stillage feed stream and that there are no infringement occurring because they are recovering less than 95% of the oil. A court ruling has issued a Supplemental Claim Construction Order clarifying the patents do not require recovery of any particular percentage of oil present in the stream.
