http://biofuelsdigest.com/bdigest/2011/05/06/dedini-aims-to-halt-spiking-in-ethanol-prices-with-sweet-sorghum/In Brazil, Dedini SA is working on machinery to use sweet sorghum as an ethanol feedstock. In a telephone interview with Bloomberg, Jose Luiz Oliverio, vice president of technology and development, stated that the company is expecting a contract to retrofit an existing cane mill with the equipment needed to handle sorghum.
Dedini is also talking with eight developers regarding buying a sorghum processing mill that Dedini expects to build by 2013. Oliverio states that retrofitting existing mills to be able to handle cane sugar and sorghum would allow operators to plant sorghum in October and harvest it during the rainy season when the sugar cane harvest has ended, which would allow more sugar to be processed and possibly stop spikes in ethanol prices.
