There’s greenwashing and then there’s proof of sustainability. So what’s the difference? Check out RSB’s slide guide on how they help ensure sustainable aviation fuel or SAF is actually sustainable. From their involvement in the aviation sector to examples of biobased and recycled carbon feedstocks that their certifications cover, their latest recognition by the International […]
There is such a thing as green polyols for polyurethanes! And as you probably know, cellulosic ethanol produces tons of co-product lignin, so check out this slide guide that dives into the basic polyurethane chemistry, how lignin-based polyurethanes are made, pretreatment, structural changes, the latest work from 3 research organizations on this hot topic, and […]
What is the World Economic Forum doing to help aviation meet net zero goals? First, they recognize that the most immediate action to achieve carbon-neutral flying is the investment in, and rapid scale-up, of sustainable aviation fuel production and use. Their latest report demonstrates the feasibility, scalability and potential cost of different technological pathways for sustainable […]
Corbion recorded a solid quarter despite COVID-19 with an organic net sales increase of 5.2%, volume driven with core activities like sustainable food solutions and lactic acid & specialties performing well. Biopolymers didn’t do so well, however, thanks to postponements in elective surgeries due to the pandemic and lactic acid due to the Total Corbion PLA […]
Anyone facing a carbon target or price wants to capture carbon. The advanced players are turning towards carbon capture and use — as a way to pay for carbon capture and a place to put it for the long-term. What’s working, how, where and why? Peter Styring from University of Sheffield shared the answers with us on […]

Check out this slide guide from Jim Iacoponi of Amyris on how they get it done, how they trained an organism to make it fast enough that it’s commercially feasible […]
How can we help phase out emissions from shipping and achieve decarbonization through an ecosystem approach and lower barriers to success? Those are some of the questions Shell is asking as they look at what their role in shipping decarbonization should be now and in the future. You may have seen their joint report with Deloitte in October that coalesced […]
You may have seen that IEA Bioenergy released its new report on the role of renewable transport fuels in decarbonizing road transport. The analysis considered developments up to 2050, based on national policies, projections of the vehicle fleet, and on the availability of renewable transport fuels. Want to skip reading the entire report and get the highlights? Then check […]
If you missed ABLC this summer, check out this illuminating slide guide from Jeff Thornton at m2p-labs where he shares how microbioreactors can be used to de-risk larger scale, more expensive systems, increase throughput data density at low cost which can help you modify high risk experiments and make them low risk at scale, and […]
