Beatrice plant marks first anniversary as Nebraska’s only biodiesel maker

The Norfolk Daily News reports that the Duonix Beatrice Biodiesel plant is marking “its first full year in business.” Plant manager David Cotten said, “Our challenge is to implement the Benefuels technology into our process which allows us to streamline the conversion of feedstocks into biodiesel and we also can be more flexible in the feedstocks. That’s really the big bet for us, flexible feedstocks so we can buy the lowest-cost feedstock and convert it into high-value biodiesel.”
