Optimizing the potential of bioCO2 from bioprocessing

Nearly every other major source of commercial CO2 is either mined from naturally sequestered places beneath the Earth’s surface or generated using hydrocarbon-based processes. Both of these processes transfer harmful carbon to the atmosphere that would have otherwise remained sequestered.

POET BioCO2 is a form of renewable carbon dioxide that is produced during the bioethanol production process. Our bioCO2 is part of the natural growing cycle of corn, which means the CO2 that we produce is reabsorbed by the next year’s corn crop, resulting in no new CO2 being added to the atmosphere. As the leader in our industry, our regenerative process results in a CO2 product that is more sustainable than any other on the market.

POET specializes in marketing the highest-grade liquid bioCO2 and dry ice from a portfolio of bioprocessing facilities strategically located across the U.S. In addition, POET’s decades of marketing and logistics expertise adhere to the most stringent requirements of quality, reliability, and customer service.

At POET, we turn every kernel into something valuable — bioethanol, distillers grains, distillers corn oil, and more. This step-by-step process shows how a small seed transforms into a wide range of American-made bioproducts.
