What is BiAmerican Biomass Energy?
BiAmerican Biomass Energy (BBE) was developed in 2006, after years of
research, in the Central Coast town of Salinas,
California,
with the main goal of developing biomass-based fuel products. The
company now offers bioethanol, biodiesel, and biofuel products to
commercial and wholesale enterprises as an environmentally sound and
economically sustainable alternative to energy from fossil fuels.
Where is BBE located?
BBE is headquartered in Salinas, California with production facilities in Castroville, California.
Areas slated for development are Napa
Valley, Riverside,
and Oxnard, California. Due to the company’s
unique formula for creating energy from agri-waste, US
expansion plans are targeted towards coastal regions throughout the
nation.
What products does BBE offer?
BBE offers bioethanol as an alternative to gasoline, biodiesel as an
alternative to diesel fuel and, in the near future, hydrogen. The
company will also offer biofuels or blended products, some of which
will be developed for hydrogen use in generators, heating, and
agricultural pumps. Specialty products include portable (passive or
active), self-contained Biofuel³ fueling stations or power and
communications platforms. These fueling/power stations give companies a
portable fueling service for remote equipment, emergency services,
power, and communications via radio/satellite uplink feeds.
What are bioethanol, biodiesel and biofuels?
Biofuels are energy sources derived from organic materials such as
fruits, vegetables, algae, and landscaping waste (all biomass).
Biofuels include bioethanol and biodiesel products. Biodiesel serves
the same purpose as diesel fuel, but is composed of a clean-burning
alternative derived from biodegradable, nontoxic organic materials.
Bioethanol is generally derived from agricultural products and can be
used as a cleaner alternative to gasoline or as an additive to
gasoline.
How is BBE’s bioethanol different from ethanol derived from corn?
Ethanol can be produced from a variety of agricultural products and other
organic materials, however agricultural products differ in chemical
make-up. BBE’s process of producing ethanol from certain fruits rather
than corn produces a more powerful energy source.
Is the production process safe?
BBE's production process is non-toxic and produces a safe and effective
energy product that is cleaner than energy derived from fossil fuels.
What makes BBE’s products environmentally friendly?
Compared with conventional unleaded gasoline, biofuel is a cleaner
burning fuel source that combusts cleanly to form carbon dioxide and
water. BBE utilizes agri-waste products that would otherwise be
composted to produce its biofuel products. The process takes organic
waste and converts it to a sustainable energy source with valuable
by-products and no depletion of natural resources, as is the case with
fossil fuels.
Are BBE products affordable?
BBE offers energy products at or below the current market rate and the
rate remains the same throughout the duration of client contracts. The
price of BBE products will not change with market fluctuations like oil
prices. Customers can count on a fixed price every month, with the
energy source on-site via BBE’s portable systems. Service is included
in contracts and is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
