Noun 1. to biodiesel program has a built up a great deal of momentum and the depth and breadth of our team will be critical to our continued success as we transition more fully from technology commercialization to systems deployment and ongoing operations. David, Greg and Whit each have intimate knowledge of our technologies as well as standard vegetable oil refining, and ethanol and biodiesel production Biodiesel production is the process of synthesizing biodiesel. Biodiesel is a liquid fuel source largely compatible with petroleum based diesel fuel. The most common method for its manufacture is synthesis by reacting a glyceride-containing plant oil with a short chain alcohol such processes. I have every confidence in each of them and the rest of the GS CleanTech team, and I look forward to the continued success of our corn oil to biodiesel program." David Winsness, GS CleanTech's president and chief executive officer, added that: "I am very excited by where we are today. We have a growing team of dynamic and hard working engineers and project managers and I strongly believe that our technologies can help to facilitate tremendous gains for commerce and the environment. Our first target is the Corn Ethanol Corn ethanol is ethanol produced from corn as a biomass through industrial fermentation, chemical processing and distillation. It is primarily used in the United States as an alternative to gasoline and petroleum. Production Industry, and we intend to remain relentlessly focused on enhancing the net energy value of traditional corn derived ethanol production by layering in additional technologies that maximize the revenues and earnings yield of every bushel bushel: see English units of measurement. of corn.
