Technologies

BPI has developed a library of improved processes, organisms, and technologies for the production of high value bio-products (fuels, feeds, & chemicals) from a variety of biomass feedstocks. BPI processes and technologies have been developed to add commercial value in industrial processing applications:

BPI Technology Attributes:

  1. Valuable, increasing production yields, efficiencies, & profits,
  2. Applicable in a variety of market conditions & industries,
  3. Effective & safe in non-sterile process environments,
  4. Synergistic, in facility wide integration and applications,

Bio-Processing Steps:

  1. Biomass Processing:  Handling, cleaning, homogenization, and breakdown of bio-materials.
  2. Bio-Conversion:  Bio-product formation through biological, chemical, & thermal reactions.
  3. Separations & Recovery:  Recovery of bio-products from dilute, heterogeneous, streams.
