New Generation Biofuels Signs Sales Contract With Delta Chemical Corporation
to Provide up to 371,000 gallons of its Renewable Biofuel
LAKE MARY, Fla., March 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Renewable fuels provider
New Generation Biofuels Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: NGBF) today announced that it
has signed a 12-month contract to supply Delta Chemical Corporation of
Baltimore, Maryland, with up to 371,000 gallons per year of renewable biofuel.
New Generation Biofuels will supply Delta Chemical Corporation ("Delta
Chemical") with biofuel for its No. 1, Cleaver-Brooks lead boiler. This
contract will fulfill approximately 50% of Delta Chemical's annual energy
consumption needs. Testing was completed last week with results showing
excellent light-off and combustion properties. Deliveries will begin in the
next two weeks from New Generation Biofuels' new Baltimore production
facility.
"We are very pleased to announce that our first sales contract in the
Baltimore area is with Delta Chemical Corporation, which has taken a positive
step towards renewable and sustainable energy by electing to use our renewable
biofuel to meet its energy needs," said Cary Claiborne, Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer of New Generation Biofuels. "Our biofuel
has demonstrated significant overall greenhouse gas emission reductions as
well as local air pollution reductions including nitrogen oxide (NOx) and
sulfur dioxide (SO2) compared to distillate fuel oil and this contract win
will contribute to establishing our brand as an alternative to fossil fuel in
the industrial heating market."
"Working with New Generation Biofuels is important to Delta Chemical as we
strive to understand alternative energy sources in the face of an uncertain
future regulatory environment," said John Besson, President of Delta Chemical
Corporation.
