biomass into
three products:
� 2nd generation bio-ethanol
� C5 molasses for bio-gas production, and
� Lignin for wood pellet substitution in
power production

C5 to ethanol C5 to ethanol
is under development and is expected
ready in 2013

PARTNERSHIP AMONG DONG ENERGY + NOVOZYMES + 3 MUNICIPALITIES
Integration of
•DH CHP plant 'Maabjergværket’
•biogas plant, Maabjerg BioEnergy,
using manure and industrial waste as
feedstock
•New 2G bio-ethanol plant with
mixed fermentation of both the C6
and C5 (molasses).
The by-product vinasse will be used in
the biogas production and the lignin
will be used as fuel in the heat and
power production, while the district
heating plant partly will work as a
cooling medium for the bio-ethanol
production steam.
Expected energy efficiency 96% for
the whole biorefinery.
The three plants will be interlinked so they can
take advantage of each other’s production
and side streams.
