We encourage abstract submissions from all industry sectors as we work together to advance and increase the use of ethanol.”

“The 2025 FEW will once again showcase the Carbon Capture & Storage Summit, as well as the Sustainable Fuels Summit, which was previously the Biodiesel Summit,” said John Nelson, vice president of operations, sales and marketing at BBI International. “We broadened the scope of the Sustainable Fuels Summit to better reflect the content that will be available for attendees. The market is growing and in addition to biodiesel production, we continue to see increasing interest in renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel production” Nelson stated.

Producers of ethanol, biodiesel, advanced biofuels, biochemicals, cellulosic ethanol, renewable diesel, and sustainable aviation fuel can register for free.

Presentation abstracts are open for submission until Feb. 7, 2025. For more information or to submit an abstract, visit www.fuelethanolworkshop.com.
