August 10, 2000ADM re-opens North Dakota ethanol plant Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM) has announced the re-opening of its Walhalla, North Dakota ethanol plant due to increased demand for its products. The plant, which was temporarily closed in June 1999, is scheduled to resume production in approximately thirty days.
“ADM is pleased to re-open our ethanol processing facility in Walhalla,” said Larry Cunningham, Senior Vice President Corporate Affairs. “The re-opening of our plant to produce clean-burning ethanol will create an additional demand for 25,000 bushels of North Dakota area corn and create and estimated 40 new jobs in the Walhalla area. This action is a win-win situation for farmers, the local economy, ADM and consumers.”
PHYSICIST SAYS MICRO FUEL CELLS MAY SOON REVOLUTIONIZE CONSUMER ELECTRONICS
Fuel cells have been characterized as a cure-all for worries about the oil supply and pollution, though the technology is generally believed to be too expensive to be put into wide use.
Physicist Robert Hockaday, formerly of the Los Alamos National Laboratory, agrees it will be years before fuel cells are powering our cars and trucks, but he sees a more immediate opportunity with personal electronic devices.
The Hockaday research team achieved a major breakthrough in February. In tests, a micro fuel cell had achieved an energy output three times greater than that of a standard lithium ion battery used in a cellular phone.
The next step for the research team at Energy Related Devices Inc. in Los Alamos, N.M., is to incorporate the test cells into working prototype cell phones.
