Ethanol Research

CCI has been working on a research project producing a cheap, high alcohol by volume (ABV) ethanol that can be used to power properly modified engines, such as generators, lawnmowers, and automobiles by using a by-product of sugar production, molasses. Molasses is a viscous by-product from the refining of sugar cane into sugar. Molasses is abundant is southern Louisiana due to the large amounts of sugar cane fields and has great potential to be a low cost alternative fuels source in Louisiana and its surrounding areas.
