GreenHouse turns to beer fuel
While many ethanol producers are going down, California-headquartered GreenHouse Energy is going bottoms-up.
The producer is teaming-up with Karl Strauss Brewing Company to convert spent beer yeast into ethanol fuel.
Together, the two companies and the state are part of the GreenHouse Developmental Pilot Program, a distribution model being introduced first in Southern California.
Within the agreement, Karl Strauss Brewing Company will provide 28 tonnes of spent beer yeast a week. GreenHouse will collect the left-over waste and distribute it throughout California to consumers user using the E-Fuel MicroFueler to safely they can safely and efficiently distill their own ethanol.
The E-Fuel100 MicroFueler is the world's first portable ethanol micro-refinery system. It replaces the traditional ethanol reflux column system with a solid state distillation technology, making it possible for homeowners and small businesses to safely and cost-effectively create their own fuel, on-site.
California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s unveiled the final production model of the E-Fuel MicroFueler in June.
