POET adds additional CO2 to US market

0

POET, the world’s largest biofuels producer, has completed construction on an addition to its POET Bioprocessing – Portland facility in Indiana, US, which allows the company to capture renewable carbon dioxide (CO2) to be sold for commercial use.

Renewable CO2 is a co-product of POET’s bioethanol production process, and part of the POET Pure line of bioproducts which includes plant-based purified alcohol, CO2 and dry ice. POET says it “is the highest-grade sustainable liquid carbon dioxide on the market”.

Brad Jones, POET’s Director of Business Development CO2, said, “Carbon capture has proven to be not only a really exciting business opportunity for POET, but it’s great for the planet as well. CO2 is already a part of the natural growing cycle of corn.

So our regenerative process results in a CO2 product that’s one of the most sustainable on the market.”
