Summary
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 ($28B 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). It is important to develop emission-free technology to replace oil-based Nylon 6,6. Within the OzoneBio we developed unique “Zombie cells” approach that allows us to convert wood-derived phenolic compounds into adipic acid at high rates.

Description (French)
Au 21e siècle, les consommateurs exigent de plus en plus des produits qui reflètent leurs valeurs et leur mode de vie plus durables. Il existe une forte demande de polymères propres et durables sur le marché mondial. L'acide adipique est le principal élément constitutif du Nylon 6,6 (marché de 28 milliards de dollars), un polymère haute performance fabriqué à partir de pétrole. La production mondiale d'acide adipique entraîne le rejet de gaz à effet de serre toxiques, le N2O et le CO2 (~60 MILLIONS DE TONNES/AN). Il est important de mettre au point une technologie sans émission pour remplacer le Nylon 6,6 issu du pétrole. Au sein d'OzoneBio, nous avons développé une approche unique de « cellules zombies » qui nous permet de convertir les composés phénoliques dérivés du bois en acide adipique à des taux élevés.
