Ethanol Plant Shuts Down

Georgia's largest ethanol plant is closing for a week following an accident. First United Ethanol on Camilla in south Georgia says a ruptured evaporator joint caused a major steam blow off Tuesday. The plant opened only a few months ago and makes ethanol from corn. The plant says it was likely a faulty valve but a full investigation is underway.
