Published purpose
In the 21st century, consumers are increasingly demanding products that reflect their more sustainable values and lifestyles. There is a big demand for clean sustainable polymers on the global market. Adipic acid is the main building block of Nylon 6,6 ($28 billion market) high-performance polymer that is made from oil. Global adipic acid production results in toxic greenhouse gases N2O and CO2 release (~60 million tons/year). Therefore, it is important to develop green emission-free technology to replace oil-based Nylon 6,6. Within the OzoneBio, we use wood-derived feedstocks to produce bio-adipic acid through an emission-zero biocatalytic process.
