A Pennsylvania firm Enerco Inc with Langhorne ties is tentatively approved for a federal loan guarantee to back a mobile unit project turning forest and agricultural wastes into gas and fuels. Four pilot projects under a Food and Agriculture Act program may receive up to 15 million dollars each. 30 applications were reviewed with Enerco and three others selected for special consideration, while several other applicants seek loans for alcohol and gas fuel production from agricultural byproducts.
