Enzymes & biocatalysis

Replacing chlorinated-solvent and petroleum-based degreasers with lipase enzymes and living microbial cultures that continuously digest oil and grease inside the wash fluid itself — from a benchtop parts washer that never needs its solvent replaced to industrial biodegradable degreasing lines for metal, textile and food-processing equipment.

Replacing energy-intensive metal and chemical catalysts in petrochemical synthesis with engineered enzymes, immobilized flow reactors and cell-free systems — high selectivity, mild conditions, reusable catalysts across platform and fine chemicals.

Cell-free directed synthesis of high-molecular-weight polymers utilizing purified recombinant enzymes ex vivo, eliminating metabolic constraints to produce ultra-pure biomaterials for regenerative medicine and high-end cosmetics.

Industrial enzymes and biocatalysis replace chemical processes with protein-catalyzed reactions — cutting energy by 40–70%, reagent costs, and waste streams across food, feed, pharma, textiles, and biofuels. The global market exceeds $7B with >6% CAGR through 2030.
