Via BioFuels General Information

Description

Producer of a bio-derived aromatic compound intended to promote proprietary engineered yeast strains to produce energy. The company's platform uses an engineered yeast strain that converts plant-based feedstocks into aromatic compounds through continuous fermentation, where the compound separates from the broth due to its hydrophobic nature, enabling fuel producers to adopt a cleaner feedstock without disrupting infrastructure.
