High-value
Chemicals from Renewable Sources
GlycosBio
is transforming the fuels and chemicals industries with biological
systems that can flexibly manufacture high value products from a
wide range of feedstocks. We have acquired and developed a number
of platform technologies which will allow us to reduce production
cost with environmentally friendly technologies
as an alternative to petrochemical-based manufacturing. Products
envisioned include replacement of existing polymers with chemically
equivalent polymers entirely derived from renewable resources; in
many cases the feedstock is currently treated as waste. Our technologies
allow development of standard grade fuels and chemicals to supply
existing market demand in multiple multi-billion dollar markets.
Our location on the Gulf Coast provides
a strategic advantage in transportation as well as integration into
the existing chemical supply chain.
GlycosBio is partnering with leading feedstock suppliers and a
world class engineering and construction firm to bring our first
production facilities online in 2008.
