Bayer acquires Athenix, but does not cite cellulosic ethanol, drop-in fuel capabilities among motivations
In North Carolina, Bayer CropScience has acquired Athenix, a biotechnology company that has been genetically engineering genes and enzymes to convert biomass into cellulosic ethanol, as well as hydrocarbon-based drop-in fuels. Bayer indicated in a release on their website that they valued Athenix primarily for it extensive herbicide tolerance and insect control trait development platform, [...]
Researchers find one-step process for converting cellulose to HMF, which can be refined into drop-in renewable fuels
In Washington, researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory report a new method for converting cellulose in a single-step to the building block HMF, which can thereupon be refined into renewable polyesters, green gasoline or green diesel.
In their research, the team used a combination of copper chloride and chromium chloride at 120 degrees Celsius broke [...]
BIO’s “Amaizing Microbes: Synthetic Biology Emerges as Key to Biofuels Future” highlights synbio, drop in fuels
in Georgia, the organizers of the upcoming BIO annual convention (Atlanta, May 18-21) have prepared an excellent summary of the advancing role of synthetic biology in the development of advanced biofuels, titled “Amaizing Microbes: Synthetic Biology Emerges as Key to Biofuels Future.”
The article dramatically quotes MIT’s Drew Endy: “There is no technical barrier to synthesizing [...]
UCSF research team produces green gasoline from French bacterium, yeast
In France, a discovery of an organism in a French garbage dump has prompted a research team at the University of California – San Francisco to identify a path to producing drop-in renewable gasoline from a gas emitted by biomass. The bacterium was discovered in France in the 1980s and, when fed to switch grass, [...]
