$1 billion net-zero emissions fuel production facility coming to Acadia Parish

(KLFY) -- Acadia Parish is slated to become the home of what's being touted as the world’s first net-zero emissions fuel production facility.

Clean Refineries Inc. has announced a $1 billion investment to produce marine-grade bunker fuel, high-performance asphalt, and ultra-clean diesel. The 20,000 barrel-per-day facility will use an existing petroleum terminal that the company said will manufacture fuels with no toxic emissions, no detectable odors and a dramatically reduced carbon footprint.
