INDUSTRIES
Biofuels & Renewable Energy Facility Construction
Design-build construction and capital project delivery for ethanol plants, grain-to-energy facilities, and agri-industrial renewable energy infrastructure. Todd & Sargent brings agri-industrial construction expertise to the growing biofuels and renewable energy sector.
Feed & Flour Capabilities
Construction Expertise for The Renewable Fuel Industry
Biofuel production facilities — ethanol plants, distillers grain dryers, CO2 capture systems, and grain-receiving infrastructure — share many of the structural, mechanical, and civil construction requirements of traditional agri-industrial facilities. Todd & Sargent’s depth of experience in grain handling, bulk material systems, and industrial construction makes us a natural fit for biofuel facility capital projects.
Ethanol Plant Construction & Expansion
Design-build construction for greenfield ethanol plants and expansion projects at existing facilities. We handle the grain receiving, storage, and grinding infrastructure that feeds the fermentation process — the agri-industrial front end that determines the quality and consistency of your feedstock.
Grain Receiving & Storage Infrastructure
Commercial grain elevators and grain storage systems that serve as the feedstock receiving and storage infrastructure for ethanol and biofuel plants. We design and build receiving systems capable of handling the continuous, high-volume grain supply that production demands.
Distillers Grains Handling & Drying
Wet and dry distillers grain handling systems — a critical co-product of corn ethanol production. We design and build WDGS conveying systems, ring dryer infrastructure support structures, and dried distillers grain (DDG) storage and loadout systems.
Bulk Material Handling Systems
Conveying, storage, and reclaim systems for corn, DDGs, and other bulk materials handled in biofuel production. Our engineering team designs handling systems that maximize throughput and minimize operational bottlenecks in continuous-process production environments.
Industrial Building Construction
Process buildings, equipment enclosures, control buildings, maintenance shops, and administrative facilities that support biofuel plant operations. Our structural teams build the industrial-grade facilities that production equipment requires.
Carbon Capture Infrastructure
As the biofuel industry evolves to maximize carbon intensity reduction, CO2 compression, pipeline tie-in infrastructure, and sequestration well head facilities are increasingly part of the biofuel facility footprint. Our team is building construction capabilities in this emerging area.
Facilities Designed Around Your Production Goals
The front end of every corn ethanol plant looks a lot like a grain elevator — because it is one. That’s where Todd & Sargent’s expertise delivers unique value in biofuel facility construction.
Our decades of experience in grain receiving infrastructure, concrete bin construction, conveying system design, and agri-industrial project management translate directly into better outcomes on biofuel facility capital projects. We understand corn handling, drying, and storage at a depth that generalist industrial contractors do not.
Todd & Sargent has performed capital construction work at ethanol production facilities across Iowa and the Midwest — including grain handling expansions, structural upgrades, and new receiving infrastructure. Our design-build model is well-suited to the project execution requirements of operating biofuel plants where minimizing production downtime during construction is a critical project constraint.
