CPM Roskamp Champion trains Hungary's Pannonia Ethanol operators
CPM Roskamp Champion, grinding, pelleting and cooling process machinery supplier for the animal feed, oilseed, biofuels and human food-processing sectors, trained 15 operators from Hungary's Pannonia Ethanol.
Pannonia Ethanol is a brand-new facility that purchased and will utilise the CPM Roskamp Champion hammermill to produce bioethanol fuel and dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS), a high-protein animal feed.
The plant will convert roughly 575,000 tonnes of corn annually.
"CPM was happy to welcome the Pannonia operators from Hungary to receive training on our machines," said Ryan Dietzenbach, CPM Roskamp Champion assistant sales manager.
"We have several goals with our new ethanol plant," said Ferenc Mak, Pannonia Ethanol plant manager. "We want to provide a source of domestically produced animal feed; produce some of the cleanest ethanol within the EU; and help Hungary take an active, leading role in on-going EU efforts to decrease carbon emissions."
Pannonia Ethanol is a Hungarian-based company that is engaged in the development of a fuel ethanol production facility at Dunaf??ldv??r, Tolna county in Hungary.
