Ethanol Recovery & Production

For over 25 years, Parallel Products has been the leader in renewable energy and biofuels production within the recycling community. Our core business of creating ethanol from waste consumer goods has become a baseline for a burgeoning industry... Waste-Derived Renewable Fuels.

Our unique application of fermentation and distillation technology creates complete recovery and recycling opportunities for our customers. Each year, via fermentation of sugar laden liquids and the distillation of alcohol based products, Parallel Products produces over 5 million gallons of waste-derived ethanol.

Ethanol Products & Services Include:
1. Fuel Grade Ethanol:  This is the “E” in the E-10 or E-85 that you burn in your cars. Our ethanol is used by major oil companies as a clean air additive in their gasoline blends and is considered an Advanced Biofuel by the RFS (Renewable Fuel Standards).
2. Industrial Ethanol Products:  Ethanol is blended to make specific SDA (Specially Denatured Alcohol), CDA (Completely Denatured Alcohol) and other TTB regulated formulas. These products are used in a wide array of applications by many industries. 
3. Sales & Marketing Services:   Our team of sales professionals have years of industrial alcohol sales and service experience. Their expertise along with our laboratory facilities can analyze your waste stream and repurpose it for maximum recovery.

Parallel Products is proud of our contribution to the development and production of renewable fuels. As a renewable resource, ethanol has many significant environmental benefits. For example, when used as a fuel additive in automobiles, ethanol:

      Reduces tail pipe emissions and greenhouse gases by up to 10%       Reduces emissions of carbon dioxide - a highly toxic gas - by up to 30%       Results in a net reduction in ground-level ozone, a major component of urban smog and a health hazard to
    children and adults with respiratory problems       Helps to reduce our country's dependence on imports of foreign oil
