Butamax and Highwater Ethanol Break Ground on Biobutanol Project

Butamax Advanced Biofuels LLC, a biobutanol technology company, and Highwater Ethanol LLC, a producer of first generation ethanol, have begun to retrofit a ethanol plant in Minnesota for the production of biobutanol. The Butamax technology package will include the installation of novel corn oil separation technology. Butamax and Highwater have entered into definitive agreements for license of Butamax’s corn oil separation technology, which is an integral part of a full retrofit to biobutanol production.
