About

Cornova is an industrial corn biorefinery project in Ukraine focused on transforming agricultural raw materials into high-value products including ethanol, protein feed (DDGS), and food-grade CO₂.

The project is designed as a platform for industrial innovation and integration with EU bioeconomy, energy, and sustainability initiatives.

Key outputs:
fuel and industrial ethanol
DDGS (high-protein feed)
food-grade CO₂
by-products for further processing

Project fundamentals:
planned capacity: ~6,500 dal/day ethanol
flexible production model depending on market demand
integration with existing agricultural and processing infrastructure

What we already have:
secured access to corn feedstock
agricultural and logistics infrastructure
land and site readiness
operational capabilities

We are looking for:
technology providers (fermentation, ethanol processing, energy integration)
research institutions and R&D partners
EU consortium partners for Horizon Europe, CBE JU, and LIFE programs
engineering and industrial partners for pilot and scaling phases

Cornova is positioned as a scalable industrial platform aligned with EU Green Deal priorities, contributing to decarbonization, sustainable fuel production, and circular bioeconomy development.
