First plant producing advanced biofuels commercially
Beta Renewables and Novozymes, the producer of industrial enzymes, on Wednesday marked the official opening in Northern Italy of the world’s largest advanced biofuels plant, outside the city of Crescentino. It is the first plant in the world to be designed and built to produce bioethanol from agricultural residues and energy crops at commercial scale using enzymatic conversion, the companies said.
