Money, money, money – a growing bioeconomy needs lots of it. But with so many challenges like a lack of certainty in government programs or a perceived lack of funds at the company and project levels, what are the solutions? Mark Riedy, Partner at Kilpatrick Townsend shared this illuminating presentation at ABLC NEXT in San […]
Reaching high is something Mercurius is familiar with, esp. with their REACH technology. Standing for renewable, acid-hydrolysis, condensation, hydrotreating, their REACH technology works at low temperature, low pressure and enzyme free. According to Knud Balslev at Mercurius Biorefining, drop-in hydrocarbon jet fuel and diesel fuel are their primary fuel products. Check out this Slide-Guide from […]
Licella is transforming plastic and biomass waste into high value sustainable resources. Their Cat-HTR platform uses water at high temperature and pressure to transform wastes and residues to synthetic crude oil, chemically equivalent to fossil crude. Steve Rogers from Licella shared this illuminating presentation at ABLC NEXT in San Francisco.
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 […]
