Alliance Bioenergy Plus teams up with DCR Engineering Services to promote cellulose-to-sugar technology

US cellulose technology provider Alliance BioEnergy Plus has entered into a Letter of Intent agreement with DcR Engineering Services (DCR) to introduce Alliance’s cellulose-to-sugar (CTS) technology to DCR’s client base.

DCR is a US-based heavy industrial engineering, fabrication and construction company serving the chemicals, fertilisers, food, water and power industries.

Under the terms of the agreement, DCR will bring Alliance’s CTS process technology to specific industrial and commercial markets including those presently being serviced by DCR and those building new ethanol and sugar plants.

DCR will also provide engineering, installation and maintenance services to Alliance and its clients for the CTS bolt-on units.  

General terms

The agreement will cover the more than 200 US existing ethanol plants and any new ones being built, Alliance said.

DCR’s compensation for existing plants that license/lease the CTS units is from build and installation that it performs and any additional business it can cultivate. As for compensation from Alliance that DCR may receive, it is based on a percentage of the license/royalty fees that Alliance receives only if the potential client that DCR introduces to Alliance licenses the CTS process from Alliance and builds a new free-standing Greenfield plant or performs a Brownfield retrofit of an existing plant.

DCR will provide sales personnel to contact and make sales-calls on existing US-based ethanol plants and introduce them to the CTS bolt-on process.

DCR will introduce Alliance to sugar mills and other Industries that would benefit from incorporating the CTS process.

Demonstration unit

DCR will provide multi-discipline engineering and design, fabrication and assembly services to build one portable demonstration unit based on the CTS process, suitable for transporting from plant-to-plant, specifically for the purpose of sales demonstration.

Alliance and DCR will fully collaborate on the design of the portable sales and demonstration unit.

Additional details of the final agreement will be made public following the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Daniel de Liege, CEO of Alliance, said: “I am extremely pleased that DCR, after extensive due-diligence and discussions with their client base, has agreed to introduce their client base to the Alliance CTS process and to join Alliance in bringing the CTS Process to the ethanol and sugar industries to name but a few. This is a win-win for all, DCR and Alliance, but most of all for the Alliance shareholders.”
