In its quest to make cellulosic ethanol an affordable reality in the near future, Broin Companies has formed a partnership with biotech industry leader Novazymes.

According to a press release, the partnership will “take the next steps needed to bring cost-effective ethanol derived from corn stover to market.”
The collaboration is an extension of the close partnership between the two companies and is a great opportunity for Novozymes to put its unique biotechnology platform at work and for Broin to aim at a fast commercialization.

Earlier this month, Broin announced a partnership with DuPont for the same purpose.
