Renewable-fuels lobbyists want a bigger ethanol mandate in Iowa
January 25, 2010

The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association has announced a legislative push for a 10% ethanol mandate for gasoline sold in the state. Iowa is the largest ethanol-production state in the country, with Nebraska in either second or third place (depending on whether one is counting capacity or actual production). Both states are also heavy producers of biodiesel, generally from soybeans. The production of those fuels has a measurable effect on water usage in both states, since the production and refining of biofuels requires large volumes of water. They are major economic factors in both states, as well.

Related products: We offer a number of products used in ethanol and biodiesel production facilities, including pumps for clean water, flowmeters, and aeration systems for processing liquid byproducts.
