Two production lines will operate at the bioethanol plant

In Lutsk, Volyn region, the Hnidav Sugar Factory will process corn into bioethanol.

The deputy director of the plant, Oleksandr Nikishyn, said that a separate production line is already being built for this purpose at the enterprise, reports press service of Hnidav sugar factory.

Nikishin explained that this will allow agricultural producers not to waste gas for drying corn. After all, in 2022 it will cost more than the cost of corn itself.

"We plan to buy corn from people all year round and produce bioethanol," he said.

The press service explained that two production lines will operate at the bioethanol plant: molasses and corn.

Tetyana Alaverdova, commercial director of HarvEast, noted that in 2022, bringing wet corn to the baseline may cost about $50 per ton.

"Under such conditions, farmers will reduce corn production, as it will become completely unprofitable," the press service explained.
