LEVULINIC ACID VERSATILITY PLATFORM
With over a decade of research & 200+ patents, GFBiochemicals has unlocked the potential of the levulinic acid platform & its derivatives under RE:CHEMISTRY
LEVULINIC ACID ESTERS & KETALS PATHWAY
STRONG IP PROTECTION ON PROCESS, PRODUCT & APPLICATION
PLANT-BASED UNIQUE PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY
Biomass conversion demonstrated at industrial scale
Strong IP protection
Levulinic Acid
Conversion into Levulinic Acid Derivatives
Strong IP protection on solvents, polyols and plasticizers
Bio-solvents produced to date
High Solvency Power
SIGNIFICANT CARBON REDUCTION USING
SAFE & SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS
GHG impact vs Incumbents
Plant-based Carbon Content
Compelling carbon footprint compared to petrochemical solvents:
Propylene Glycol – 12 times the CO2 emissions of RC SOLVE100
Tetrahydrofuran – 16.5 times the CO2 emissions of RC SOLVE100
Biogenic carbon is absorbed and stored by the flora on our planet as a natural consequence of its life cycle.
HSE PROFILE
Levulinic acid is a platform molecule made from Agro-waste, with a left hand and a right hand functionality, which each can be independently transformed to different functionalities and therefore to a wealth of molecules targeting different applications.
It’s a major breakthrough in the chemistry world !
