1. A process for remediating deoxynivalenol, wherein the process comprises:
determining if deoxynivalenol is present in incoming grain and/or one or more biorefinery process compositions; and
introducing one or more treatment compounds into at least one post-distillation, biorefinery process composition to react with at least a portion of the deoxynivalenol present in the at least one post-distillation, biorefinery composition to form a treated, post-distillation, biorefinery process composition comprising one or more reaction products, and reduce a concentration of the deoxynivalenol, wherein the at least one post-distillation, biorefinery process composition is chosen from whole stillage, thin stillage, syrup, and combinations thereof, and wherein the one or more treatment compounds comprise one or more sulfur-containing compounds that react with the at least a portion of the deoxynivalenol present in the at least one post-distillation, biorefinery composition to form deoxynivalenol sulfonate.
