| Technology Brief |
Integrated technology package that converts corn crop residue to cellulosic bio-ethanol to third parties, as well as the other 26 existing corn ethanol plants in POET's network.
The process makes use of corn stover that passes through the combine during harvest. We use approximately 25% of the material, leaving about 75% on the ground for erosion control, nutrient replacement and other important farm management practices.
