In this presentation we looked at how Virent feedstock flexibility allows the use of commercially available sugars today, with the prospect of cellulosic sugars when commercially available and also the scalability of the technology, the opportunities in drop in fuels and also Virent biochemicals used in existing chemical manufacturing processes to produce sustainable plastics, fibers […]
In this presentation, we explored the challenges faced by global renewable chemical and materials producers in shifting towards low carbon alternatives — new processes, novel molecules with enhanced properties for green hydrogen, Methanol, plant-based meats & fish, fermentation capacity and true precision, plastic, the role of celebrities in driving adoption, economy-wide low carbon standards, the […]
Marathon Petroleum subsidiary Virent developed its BioForming technology to create fuels and chemicals from a wide range of naturally occurring, renewable resources. And now they’ve teamed up with Johnson Matthey to bring to market Virent’s proprietary tech for the production of BioFormate, enabling production of bio-gasoline, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), and bio-aromatic chemicals. How the […]
Since 2005, LanzaTech has been working to create this closed-loop system using waste carbon to make the things we use in our daily lives. LanzaTech is changing how people think about carbon, creating value and new sustainable products across multiple markets. It’s been repeatedly honored as #1 in the 50 Hottest Companies in the Bioeconomy […]
Boeing Regional Director for Sustainability Dale Smith gave this illuminating presentation at ABLC NEXT 2023 in Washington, DC examining global emissions, the rise of SAF in the context of other emissions-limiting measures, and the progress and plans of Boeing in the support of SAF development.
Founded in 2023, Windfall Bio is developing the first-ever solution for capturing and transforming climate-harming methane emissions into living organic soil nutrients. CEO Josh Silverman gave this presentation at ABLC Next 2023 on the targets, the team, the promise and the progress in sustainable agriculture.
BioVeritas uses some of the same technology with different market goals as the famed Terrabon of days gone by — carboxylic acids made from waste biomass, with fuel precursors and a slew of interesting renewable chemical precursors among the products that the technology can produce. Bioveritas Chief Commercial Officer Pareen Shah gave this overview of […]
In this presentation, we explored the challenges faced by global feedstock producers in shifting towards low carbon fuels, chemicals and materials — new technologies for yield, better soil and carbon practices, new crops and intermediates, and new supply chains and processes to unlock waste residues. The Digest’s Jim Lane presented these slides at ABLC Connect.
The BDO Zone Initiative certifies regional readiness for bioenergy manufacturing, creates global connections with project developers, and ignites an influx of clean energy opportunities. A BDO Zone rating is a standards-based assessment of regional manufacturing readiness with respect to development potential of biofuels, renewable chemicals, biogas or bioproducts projects. Investment grade ratings attract new bio-based […]
A new Aviation Biofuel plant producing HEFA, and Production and test of HEFA in commercial flights in non-segregated mode are the focal points of this presentation by esteemed international researcher David Chiarimonti. The goal is to accelerate the deployment of Aviation Biofuels, enabling commercial production. The project objectives are: 1) To bring HEFA to full […]
