Alco Group is a European bioethanol and biorefining company headquartered in Belgium. Through affiliates such as Alco Bio Fuel in Ghent and Alco Energy Rotterdam in the Netherlands, the group converts agricultural feedstocks into renewable ethanol for fuel blending and industrial applications across European markets.
Its integrated biorefineries also produce co-products including high-protein animal feed (such as DDGS) and corn oil. At certain sites, biogenic carbon dioxide released during fermentation is recovered, purified, and supplied for uses such as food and beverage processing, greenhouse horticulture, refrigerated transport, water treatment, and chemical applications (including dry ice). The company’s operations sit within the broader circular bioeconomy, linking renewable fuels with co-products for the feed and chemical value chains.
