Illinois is a key player in the ethanol industry, with a significant portion of corn in the state dedicated to ethanol production. According to a recent event, "Nearly a third of all corn grown in Illinois is used for making ethanol."

One Earth Energy, located in the 106th district of Illinois, stands out as a prominent ethanol and distillers’ grain producer in the state. The company's dedication to efficiency and economic development within American agriculture is evident as they strive to "maximize returns and enhance the economic development of American agriculture."

Recently, representatives from One Earth Energy hosted a session aimed at educating legislators on the intricacies of the ethanol industry and carbon capture. The event saw the participation of experts from various fields, including "geologists and researchers from the Prairie Research Institute and professors from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign," who were on hand to address any queries related to the topic.

During the session, a report on "Carbon Capture, Storage and Utilization in Illinois" was presented, shedding light on the advancements and studies in this crucial area.

In a show of gratitude, the organizers extended their thanks to all attendees, stating, "Thank you to everyone that was able to attend!"

This event not only provided valuable insights into the ethanol industry and carbon capture but also highlighted the collaborative efforts taking place in Illinois to drive innovation and sustainability in the agricultural sector.
