Devils Lake operation to turn cow manure into products

DEVILS LAKE, N.D. (AP) - A company that plans to turn cow manure into a range of products is getting ready to set up shop in Devils Lake.

The Devils Lake Journal reports (https://bit.ly/2i5lxsx ) that Bio Fiber plans to turn what it calls “agripulp” into products including structural materials, flower pots, and pellets for bedding and heating.

The operation will be housed in the former Ultra Green building. That company processed wheat straw into materials such as bowls and plates before shutting down in July 2015. City officials have been seeking a new occupant for months.

Bio Fiber’s lease is for five years, after which the company will have the option to buy the building from the city.
