LanzaTech is turning our global carbon crisis into a feedstock opportunity with the potential to displace 30% of crude oil use today and reduce global CO2 emissions by 10%. By recycling carbon from industrial off-gases; syngas generated from any biomass resource (e.g. municipal solid waste (MSW), organic industrial waste, agricultural waste); and reformed biogas, LanzaTech […]
The combination of synthetic biology, fermentation and chemistry is what Levadura Biotechnology is all about. Using synthetic biology and fermentation technology with unconventional yeast, they have created an efficient cannabinoid fermentation process for a growing pharma and wellness market. Check out this Slide-Guide from ABLC NEXT in San Francisco.
Kiverdi is taking carbon-rich waste and converting it to sustainable chemicals with their carbon engineering. With CO2 and syngas fed into their reactor, they are creating targeted chemicals like hydrocarbon monomers, esters, terpenes and more. Jason Husk from Kiverdi gave this illuminating presentation at ABLC NEXT in San Francisco.
iWi/Qualitas Health is an algae-based nutrition company that grows algae in deserts using non-arable land, salt water and the sun as their main source of energy, to produce omega3 and protein. iWi’s algae uses less freshwater consumption yet yields more essential amino acids per acre compared to other feedstocks like peas, meat, almonds, and soybeans. […]
As a world leader in polymers from itaconic acid, it’s no mystery how Itaconix got their name. But it may still be a mystery to some how they are turning their chemistries into global products. Well, mystery solved with this illuminating presentation from John Shaw, CEO at Itaconix who shared their strategy, how new economics […]
Iowa State University is working on fast pyrolysis, and Robert Brown, Director of the university’s Bioeconomy Institute looks at how their work is making us rethink thermochemical processing. By looking at autothermal pyrolysis, and more, Brown shared this presentation at ABLC NEXT in San Francisco.
With 116 companies funded in 4.5 years, IndieBio is enabling scientists to build transformative companies in human and planetary health and rejecting conventional thought that funding biotech must be expensive. Alex Kopelyan, Partner and Program Director at IndieBio shared this illuminating presentation at ABLC NEXT in San Francisco that talks about their lab space, engineering […]
Cyanobacteria are interesting little organisms. They have the highest photosynthetic efficiency of all organisms. They were the first O2 producing photosynthesizers. But the big question is how to get these natural little guys to help with bioindustrial processes and a circular economy? Just ask David Smernoff of HelioBioSys who shared this presentation about how they […]
What’s up with green hydrogen in Germany? What’s the German Climate Change action plan for 2050, and the role of renewables and hydrogen in that mix? What’s the NIP in both its phases, the hydrogen refueling infrastructure and more? Jan Wegener, Programme Manager Europe at NOW gave this illuminating overview of green hydrogen’s horizons.
What are the current opportunities in renewable natural gas? Mike McCurdy, Managing Director at ICF set out to answer that question at ABLC NEXT in San Francisco. Check out his illuminating presentation on their view of the LCFS, cellulosic RINs, how carbon intensity is driving innovation, and more.
