New process to extract biodiesel grade oil from Corn

Looks like Sunsource Biofuels has a plant in the works: Rapid City Journal: New technology turns corn into biodiesel. Apparently it is a new mechanical process instead of chemical. This is another one of those "build the $50M plant first" technologies and the unit economics are not discussed, but it could be good. The biodiesel industry definitely needs to diversify out of Soy as a feedstock.
