"The distillation portion of the plant shown on Plates 1 and 2 is designed to operate continuously, 24 hours per day. Nominal production capacity is 10 gallons per hour of 190 proof ethanol. Based on operating six days per week, annual ethanol production is 70,000 to 75,000 gallons. In addition to ethanol, the plant produces one or more saleable coproducts, depending on the base feedstock type."
