DuPont and Procter & Gamble will collaborate to use cellulosic ethanol in North American Tide laundry detergent, substituting cellulosic for Tide’s current corn based ethanol. Tide Cold Water will blend cellulosic ethanol in a scalable and commercial way. DuPont will produce the renewable, cellulosic ethanol at the company’s new biorefinery, currently under construction in Nevada, Iowa.
TideCold Water will re-purpose over 7000 tons of agricultural waste a year, according to the company.
