Commercially feasible:
Global developments across all technology platforms in bio-conversion of cellulosic feedstocks are still at an early stage.
In order to create and utilize commercially feasible solutions, the integration of technologies across the complete value chain and the manufacturing and entrepreneurial skills of companies such as of DSM and Abengoa are essential.
This collaboration allows DSM to more rapidly develop and test technology at semi-commercial and full commercial scale in existing and pilot plants.
DSM's main field of interest in this program is to develop the technical skills for cellulosic biomass hydrolysis. After completion of this program DSM will decide upon further research and partners to collaborate within this field.
Consortium partners:
DSM strives to be a leading integrated technology provider for the so-called second generation processes for biofuel and bio-based chemical production.
DSM brings over a hundred years of experience in enzymes, yeast technology and industrial fermentation, and is unique in its ability to integrate these competencies of chemical engineering and biotechnology within a single entity.
Abengoa brings many years of manufacturing, knowledge and processing capabilities. DSM and its industry, institutional and academic partners ultimately aim to provide practical solutions across the entire biorefining technology platform with particular focus onfeedstock pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis and advanced fermentation organism technologies.
