(PRWEB) December 05, 2014 -- Bobby Likis, automotive expert and host of nationally syndicated car-talk program “Bobby Likis Car Clinic,” will share the microphone with Delayne Johnson, CEO of Quad County Corn Processors, on Car Clinic’s live globalcast on Saturday, December 6, at 11:25a ET. Johnson is an ethanol advocate that sits on the Boards of the Renewable Fuels Association and the Iowa Renewable Fuels Association. An Iowa State University alumni, Johnson, has also spent 20 years in the Agriculture and Renewable Energy industries working as a Controller, General Manager and CEO.
Johnson will shine light on many renewable fuels related topics including a deeper look into the differences between cellulosic vs. conventional ethanol, the many benefits ethanol offers and what is in store for the future of cellulosic ethanol.
Johnson expands on the benefits of cellulosic ethanol, “Quad County Corn Processors is proud to be one of the first companies out of the gate to produce cellulosic ethanol. The ethanol produced at our facility is reducing greenhouse gas emissions and helping lower America’s dependence on foreign oil. I am excited to join Bobby Likis to explain to listeners how cellulosic ethanol is made and the benefits of next-generation biofuels.”
Likis comments, “On Car Clinic globalcasts, I’m committed to expand listeners’ and viewers’ knowledge base beyond ‘the rumor mill’ so often associated with renewable fuels. Delayne will clear the air about how, specifically, cellulosic ethanol production is accelerating solutions on many levels.”

About Quad County Corn Processers:
In September of 2000, six individuals from northwest Iowa formed Quad County Corn Processors and signed an option to buy 102 acres of land south of Galva by Highway 20. Their group started fundraising to build an 18 million gallon ethanol plant. In just six weeks’ time, over 420 Iowa farmers invested in this value-added project. On February 26, 2002 the first load of ethanol was transported out of the plant by truck. Thirteen years later, QCCP employs 35 dedicated professionals who operate the plant 24 hours a day. Quad’s rated capacity is 100,000 gallons of ethanol a day which translates into 35 million gallons per year. As part of the process, Quad also produces 750,000 gallons of corn oil on an annual basis. Quad County’s Research & Development team has successfully developed a patented process for converting the corn kernel fiber into cellulosic ethanol, additional corn oil and a high protein, low fiber feed. In addition, Quad County generates premium feed co-products which are marketed under the name Golden Bran®.
