In South Dakota, the POET Biorefining ethanol plant in Chancellor has reached its production capacity of 100 Mgy only 24 hours after completing a capacity expansion. The plant produced 51 Mgy in 2007, and was expanded in a project that commenced in early 2007. A waste wood burner is still under construction that will provide up to half of the plant’s required power.
