Biorefinery Zeitz of the Südzucker Group – Status Quo and Future Perspectives

Abstract: Due to the long history of the Südzucker Group in sugar production, the company owns key know‐how in processing biomass. In the last decades, the product portfolio was extended from sugar to various products such as ethanol, starch, proteins, or glucose syrups. This article presents Zeitz as the largest production site of the Südzucker Group today. The historical development is described and the synergies between the different units from which the location benefits today as a highly integrated site. Recent R&D activities are presented, and existing technologies are discussed as future perspectives to further develop Zeitz.
