An Illinois ethanol plant is exploring a new way to capture and repurpose carbon.
Bill Howell is General Manager for Adkins Energy in Lena. He tells Brownfield they have partnered with CapCO2 Solutions on a pilot project to collect CO2 from the plant and turn it into a renewable fuel called green methanol.
“The products coming off will be hydrogen gas and oxygen, and we’re then taking the waste CO2 coming off the firms, combining those two and basically making clean methanol.
