DG Fuels invests in new SAF facility

DG Fuels has selected the city of Moorhead, located in Clay County, Minnesota, for its new production facility serving the Great Lakes region.

The plant will produce 193 million gallons of zero- or low-CO2 lifecycle emissions SAF per year and will meet ASTM fuel standards. Production is expected to begin in 2030.

DG Fuels’ manufacturing process uses cellulosic biomass in the form of lower-value agricultural by-products such as corn stover and timber waste as its carbon feedstock.

It also incorporates various forms of clean hydrogen feedstock to produce near-zero carbon fuel.
