Praj Industries Ltd has received a second phase order from Cilion for its Imperial County project and another from Missouri Valley Energy for its Meckling, South Dakota project.

While the first phase orders were the supply of a technology package, the second phase deals with supply of equipment. This is in addition to its order for the first sugarcane-based ethanol project in the US.

The Imperial County project is the third project that Praj has undertaken for the Cilion Group. Cilion will produce 400 million litres per annum of ethanol at this facility.

The order from Missouri Valley Energy LLC for its 220-million litres per annum ethanol marks Praj's entry into the corn farmer's cooperative sector in the American Mid West. The company has been promoted by Glacial Lake Energy, an established name in ethanol industry, who operate an ethanol plant in the Mid West and is currently engaged in the construction of three greenfield ethanol facilities.

The order from Louisiana Green Fuels LLC represents Praj's breakthrough in the sugarcane belt of US with a contract for an integrated ethanol plant using sugarcane-based feedstock. This plant will be located at Lacassine, Louisiana, adjacent to an existing cane syrup mill.
