Ontario is investing $4 million through the Innovation Demonstration Fund to help Woodland and its partners build a groundbreaking demonstration plant that will efficiently produce cellulosic ethanol from renewable wastes.More... 

Woodland Biofuels Inc. is a privately-owned company that has developed and patented a low-cost process technology to produce cellulosic ethanol from waste biomass.  Woodland's strategy is to build, own and operate cellulosic ethanol plants, together with pursuing selected licensing opportunities.

 

The key benefits associated with Woodland's Catalyzed Pressure ReductionTM ("CPRTM") technology include:


Sarnia, Ontario - Demonstration Plant


The Company is progressing with the development of its Sarnia, Ontario demonstration plant. The construction is expected to be completed

in the 3rd quarter of 2012.  The plant will be located at the Bio Industrial Innovation Centre.


In parallel with the demonstration plant construction, the Company is advancing opportunities in North America for commerical scale plants.
