Nothing here is news to us Greenshift-a-holics. However you should note two things here. This is the January 2010 issue of the Ethanol Producer Magazine. This is the white board for the industry. If someone in the Ethanol Industry did not already get the Greenshift patent news - they did now. The second thing the SkunK finds interesting is the aggressive public defense of the patent litigation and the mention of Westfalia in particular.
“The economic and environmental benefits to the ethanol industry made possible by our portfolio of patented and patent-pending extraction technologies are remarkable,” said Kevin Kreisler, GreenShift’s chairman and CEO. GreenShift contends that seven years after it started offering its corn oil extraction equipment to the ethanol industry and well after its patent applications were published, Westfalia trivialized those innovations as it solicited and influenced customers in the ethanol industry to use Greenshift’s now-patented technology. GreenShift’s team demonstrated the feasibility of its corn oil extraction technology for the first time in 2004, according to the company.
