In California, Greenbelt Resources Corporation, which transforms waste into revenue generating bioproducts, announced that Biofuels and Energy, LLC, a New Mexico-based project development company planning to utilize Greenbelt’s proprietary ECOsystem model for its SLV Biopro Project, issued a Request for Proposal in search of an appropriate site on which to locate the project in the San Luis Valley region of Colorado. The RFP deadline is July 15th.
“Greenbelt looks forward to supporting B&E with their assessment of proposed locations,” said Greenbelt CEO Darren Eng. “Each unique site consideration helps us to evolve the sophistication of our ECOsystem model in the same way as exploring new feedstocks like duckweed and developing new bioproducts, have expanded and improved future financial viability and sustainability impact of our technology in a variety of ways.”
SLV Biopro was announced earlier this year as the first of B&E’s projects committed to using Greenbelt’s ECOsystem technology to convert agricultural waste into various biobased products such as bioethanol and high protein animal feed. Other B&E projects currently in development will be located in New Mexico and Pennsylvania.
