Description
A carbon capture and storage project at an east central Illinois ethanol facility owned by One Earth Energy.
One Earth Energy, which produces 150 million gallons of ethanol annually in Gibson City, has partnered with the Illinois State Geological Survey since 2020 to study whether the half-million tons of carbon dioxide gas (CO2) it generates each year can be collected, liquified and injected below ground near the facility.
