Methane for Supper: The Digest’s 2017 Multi-Slide Guide to Industrial Microbes

iMicrobes designs and builds microorganisms, including industrial strains of bacteria and yeast to produce chemicals from natural gas and carbon dioxide. Their green, bio-based methods are “more cost effective than sugar or oil, helping to make consumer goods cheaper” and the company picked up a joint development agreement with AkzoNobel’s Specialty Chemicals business to help bring their ideas to market — not to mention a $300K Green Chemistry EPA award.

CEO Derek Greenfield presented these slides at ABLC Next 2017 in San Francisco.
