Malaysia - 2009 Malaysia bio-diesel production sold out

Mission NewEnergy has already sold much of the potential production from its 100,000 mt/year (1,960 bls/d) bio-diesel plant at the Malaysian port of Kuantan, and expects to commission a long-delayed second plant alongside it in March, Platts reports. "Mission has sold substantially all of its capacity at its first bio-diesel refinery for 2009 to a major global oil and bio-fuels player," Mission said in a statement, adding that sales had already started under the deal.
