In Minnesota, Solugen broke ground on its new state-of-the-art biomanufacturing facility recently during a ceremony held in Marshall, Minn. The new facility is the result of a strategic partnership with ADM and aims to meet the increasing demand for sustainable solutions while bolstering domestic biomanufacturing capabilities.
The 500,000-square-foot Bioforge™ Marshall is being constructed on a 34-acre parcel adjacent to ADM’s existing corn processing complex. The facility will utilize ADM-sourced dextrose to manufacture low-carbon organic acids for applications in water treatment, agriculture, energy, and home and personal care.
Bioforge™ Marshall will house three modular trains, or production lines, boasting a total production capacity of up to 120 kilotonnes per annum (KTA) of product. The facility will employ up to 100 temporary workers during construction and is expected to create over 50 high-skill manufacturing jobs upon reaching full production.
