Coming soon: Tampa gets nation's first ethanol pipeline
Florida will soon be home to the nation's first ethanol pipeline. The 104-mile Central Florida Pipeline has carried gasoline from the Port of Tampa to the Orlando International Airport since 1965. Workers have been upgrading the 16-inch pipeline in preparation for its first batch of ethanol, slated to begin flowing in the third quarter of this year.
"It's a test for us, and everybody else, to see if we can make it work," said Joe Hollier, spokesman for Kinder Morgan. "It will be a big advantage if we are able to move ethanol by pipeline, obviously."
