A Northeast Kansas Ethanol company is going bankrupt.
Ethanex Energy filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy this week.
At one point, Ethanex planned to build three ethanol plants.
Now the company has shut down and canceled an agreement to buy a facility in Nebraska.
The ethanol industry is suffering from surging prices for corn and lower ethanol prices resulting from oversupply.
