Genomatica expects its commercial-scale plant to make Bio-BDO will become fully operational in late 2013.
These results demonstrate the potential for engineering strategies that decouple growth and production to make bio-based production more economical and sustainable.
These considerations make bio-jet fuels a promising, but challenging, class of biofuels to produce.
genomatica.com) has developed technology and manufacturing processes that can make Bio-BDO, i.e., exactly the same chemical, from sustainable ingredients rather than crude oil or natural gas hydrocarbons [ 14].
However, the complicated morphological nature of human tissues and variations of the refractive indices with internal different components make bio-tissues become a high scattering medium for visible and near-infrared wavelengths, i.e., the therapeutic and diagnostic optical window [ 1– 5].
Victimless Leather was grown in collaboration with Dr John Hunt of Liverpool University and the Foundation for Art and Creative Technology in a custom made bio-reactor.
But as tempting as this market may seem, getting into the business of making bio-similar drugs, as such generics are called, will not be easy.To begin with, there are technical hurdles.
In the 1980s, Braskem made bio-PE and bio-PVC from bioethanol.
The current bio-based industry focus is mainly on making bio-versions of existing monomers and polymers.
