In the Südzucker Group, CropEnergies and AGRANA produce renewable ethanol.

• Liquefied / biogenic CO₂
  Fermentation processes, for example in ethanol production at CropEnergies or AGRANA, produce biogenic CO₂ that can be captured, purified and put to further use. The purity of the carbon dioxide obtained meets the highest requirements of the food and pharmaceutical industries.
