Rennovia and Johnson Matthey Davy Technologies to collaborate for glucaric acid, adipic acid project

March 23, 2014 |

In California, Rennovia and Johnson Matthey Davy Technologies have announced a collaboration to develop, demonstrate, and commercialize catalytic process technologies for the production of bio-based glucaric acid and adipic acid.

Under the collaboration, Rennovia and JM Davy will work together to develop and demonstrate the processes based on Rennovia’s technology for the catalytic aerobic oxidation of glucose to glucaric acid, as well as the catalytic hydrogenation of glucaric acid to adipic acid. The goal of the collaboration is to develop and jointly license a technology package enabling commercial production of these chemical products.
