Saltend Bioethanol Plant, Hull, United Kingdom

'The commercial-scale plant will convert a variety of feedstocks, from wheat and sugar beet to ethanol, and will produce 420 million litres of fuel ethanol a year. The wheat for the plant will be sourced locally via an agreement between the joint venture and two other ABF businesses, Frontier Agriculture and AB Agri.'
