– DANIEL DE LIEGE Chairman , Alliance Bio-Products

Daniel de Liege is the company ’ s Chairman and , not surprisingly , a vocal champion of ethanol . “ Ethanol is cheap to make from waste products and is higher in octane and produces on average 85 to 90 percent fewer greenhouse gasses ,” he explains . “ It can be made and used locally without the need for refinement or large distribution networks . It ’ s less volatile , and has very low fumes . It can be further processed into varying types of fuel ; aviation or jet , diesel , and industrial grade alcohols .”
