Established in 2006, New Generation Biofuels produces a renewable energy
product that is different from traditional biofuels. Their second-generation
biofuel is produced using a simple proprietary blending process that combines
water, proprietary additives and vegetable oil or other feedstocks. This
process is simpler, cleaner, less expensive and less energy intensive than
traditional production methods and results in a biofuel that has superior
technical and environmental performance at a lower cost than other first
generation biofuels.
