"What is that vicasse byproduct they referenced in the article? "

It is the byproduct of the distillation process. It is the remains of the bacteria and other organics that aren't alcohol. It can be dried and used for some purposes. In Brazil, they use it for fertilizer. Here, they probably would use it for animal feed and maybe burn it to help distill the alcohol.
