Since opening in 2006, the facility has grown steadily from producing 50 million gallons of bioethanol per year to 80 million gallons after a 2021 expansion. In addition, the plant produces an array of bioproducts, including biogenic CO2, which offers various food processing applications.

From an 11-plus-year career at POET Bioprocessing – Fairbank, Iowa, to raising seven kids, operating his family farm, and volunteering for the local fire department, he leads an active life at work, home, and everywhere in between. “I’m not sure if Jed sleeps,” joked POET – Fairbank General Manager Bryon Wilson. Dean seems to enjoy the variety, though. In his role as Plant Technician III, he says every day offers something new.
