POET adds further carbon dioxide to US market

摘要

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(CO,)to be sold for commercial use.Renewable CO,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,CO,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 CO,,said,"Carbon capture has proven to be not only a really exciting business opportunity for POET,but it's great for already a part of the natural growing cycle of corn.The CO,our facilities produce is reabsorbed by the upcoming corn crop,meaning no new CO,is added to the atmosphere.So our regenerative process results in a CO2 product that's one of the most sustainable on the market."
