KL Process Design Group specializes in bio-fuels project development, engineering, construction, and plant management with an emphasis on ethanol made from both cellulose and grain.
Our leadership experience ranges from past
military leaders to seasoned managers in
the
ethanol industry. Our process engineering
experience is rooted in the
petrol-chemical industry. This experience provides unmatched process engineering inherently focused on efficiency.
Today, KL researchers continue to refine patent-pending technology as the first demonstration unit to process waste-wood material comes on line near the Black Hills National Forest. The Upton, Wyoming
plant, Western Biomass Energy, began producing cellulosic ethanol in January of 2008 and is the first biomass ethanol plant not using acids or having a
full dependency on
specialized enzymes to release cellulosic sugars from lignin
fibers.
