$ll,B million for gasohol plant
WASHINGTON, D.C -
Secretary of Agriculture Bob
Bergland last Friday an
nounced that Farmers Gram
and Fuel Products, Inc.,
Liberal, Kans., has been
tentatively approved to
receive a plot loan guarantee
of $ll.B million to help
finance a six million gallon a
year anhydrous alcohol
plant.
The plant will produce
alcohol suitable for blending
with gasoline to make
gasohol from grain
sorghum. A cattle feedlot
that will use all of the
byproduct wet stillage
generated by the distillery is
an integral part of the
project, Bergland said.
There is also a facility for
recovering byproduct
carbon dioxide to sell to a
neighboring meatpacking
concern.
Bergland said this project
is part of President Carter’s
renewable energy program,
and that the plant can
contribute significantly to
achieving the President’s
1981 fuel alcohol goal-500
million gallons of annual
capacity.

as its smaller predecessor Stop in for full
information on the 4040 a quick-handling
