sunliquid® has been awarded third place in the automobility category at the GreenTec Awards 2015

A jury comprised of business, science, associations and media distinguished the sunliquid® technology with third place at the GreenTec Awards. The jury is convinced that second generation biofuels based on agricultural residues, such as wheat straw, can not only be manufactured economically and sustainably, but already pass the field test of forward-looking mobility.

The pioneering technology sunliquid® stands for a sustainable and economic production of cellulosic ethanol from agricultural residues – a truly sustainable biofuel with up to 95% CO2 emission savings without competing with food and feed production.

The GreenTec Award is Europe’s renowned environmental- and business award. It honors innovative projects that point the way to a clearer future.”Sustainability and innovation are two main pillars of our corporate strategy. Sunliquid® unites both together”, said Clariant CEO Hariolf Kottmann. “This award shows that the sunliquid® technology has the potential to provide a significant contribution to sustainable mobility.”
