Verbio Nevada Biorefinery

The Verbio Nevada Biorefinery, located in Nevada, Iowa (USA), is the first industrial scale combined bioethanol and renewable natural gas (RNG) facility in North America using corn and corn stover as its feedstock. The plant is 100% owned by Verbio North America Holdings Corporation.

RNG production from corn stover began in December 2021 with the completion of Phase I, at a capacity of 7 million ethanol gallons equivalent (EGE) per year. With the completion of Phase II in August 2024, the site has started operating as a biorefinery, ramping up to a total capacity to produce 60 million gallons of corn-based ethanol per year and 2.3 million MMBtu of RNG. The integration of RNG and ethanol production, unique to Verbio, incorporates advanced operational technology currently in use at the company’s facilities in Germany. The process also yields humus, a soil amendment, and organic fertilizers.
