During a presentation of a feasibility study on the Integration of Furfural Production into a Sugar Mill, a client recently conclude that ..
“it’s really not rocket science!”
Their mill also produces ethanol, co-generates electricity and they are now looking at processing trash/leaves, as green cane harvesting is being introduced.
The technology risk is low, but the bottom-line impact is high, when integrating furfural production to beneficiate residues from processing crops such as:
Maize, | Cotton, |
Generally, we have found that an investment in the addition of furfural production has returns (IRR) of over 25% and the payback period is below 4 years.
“Why are there not many more furfural producers?”
There are several answers to this question and DalinYebo would look forward to an opportunity to share them with your organisation …
