Distillers Grains and Product Diversification Summit - CET (Central European Time, GMT+01:00)
- Joe Ward - Executive Director, Distillers Grains Technology Council
Ethanol production generates high-value by-products, such as fibre and protein, which are essential for animal feed. This reduces dependence on imports and fills gaps in alternative markets.
As ethanol plants increasingly diversify, the extraction of additional products like high-protein feed not only meets regulatory requirements but also responds to evolving market demands.

Enhancing efficiency & sustainability through innovative process integration and alternative valuable by-products.
Transforming the Industry boosting by-products: From ethanol to bio-chemical industry
The future: Our vision (Hydrogen, SAF, 2G Alcohol, among others)
- Miguel Villena Reyes - CEO, Tomsa Destil
The nutritional benefits of ethanol by-products for various animal species raise questions about optimizing their quality and performance in feed.
Distillers face the challenge of meeting consumer demand for sustainable feed options while adhering to regulations and industry standards.
Strategies promoting ethanol by-products as sustainable feed alternatives must address the challenge of aligning consumer preferences with regulations.
How can collaborations among distillers, feed manufacturers, and research institutions drive innovation and improve animal nutrition using ethanol by-products?

The distiller grains industry can mitigate environmental challenges linked to soybean imports for animal feed by fostering sustainable alternatives.
Investigating alternative high-protein sources from bioethanol production offers numerous advantages, requiring essential collaborations to integrate these solutions into current supply chains.
Stakeholders in feed compounding can cooperate with the distiller grains industry to advocate for sustainable alternatives to soybean imports, with education playing a crucial role in facilitating this collaboration.
