over mass-balanced production, radiocarbon measurement of biogenic carbon under ASTM D6866, and the digital product passport regime the EU adopted in July 2026 to carry such claims through the supply chain.https://en.bioecon.ru/technology/bio-acrylic-acid/Tue, 21 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/technology/bio-acrylic-acid/Renewable routes to acrylic acid, the C3 monomer behind superabsorbent polymers, paints, coatings and adhesives, across two distinct value chains: bioethanol-derived bio-based acrylate esters already commercial at Arkema (Carling, France, bio-based ethyl acrylate at 40% bio carbon content since October 2024) and BASF (Ludwigshafen, portfolio switched to bio-based ethyl acrylate in August 2024), and direct fermentative acrylic-acid routes via 3-hydroxypropionic acid (Cargill’s Issatchenkia orientalis SD108 platform) or direct yeast fermentation (Genomatica’s Saccharomyces cerevisiae host at ~30 mg/L laboratory titre) still at pilot or research scale — no Chinese commercial originator confirmed as of 2026.https://en.bioecon.ru/technology/biosolvents-green-solvents/Tue, 21 Jul 2026 00:00:00

Vertec Biosolvents’ corn-based MEK-replacements now under Shrieve Chemical ownership) and bioethanol-derived ethyl acetate — replacing MEK, toluene and xylene in paints, coatings, industrial degreasing and pharma processing, alongside BASF’s biomass-balanced BMBcert intermediates that attribute renewable carbon into existing solvent families via mass-balance accounting — a mature commercial niche with no dedicated Chinese or Indian originator confirmed as of 2026.https://en.bioecon.ru/technology/biosynthetic-menthol/Tue, 21 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://en.bioecon.ru/technology/biosynthetic-menthol/L-menthol supply in 2026 is dominated by conventional routes under active capacity expansion — BASF’s triple-digit-million-euro world-scale menthol/linalool plant at Ludwigshafen (Apr 2026) and Symrise’s 50-year synthetic-menthol franchise in the EU, alongside NMPA-licensed API extraction (Huangshan Tianmu Mint Pharmaceutical, license renewed to 2030) and food-grade dispersion formulation (Jiangsu Caiwei, 0.001-0.5% precision dosing) in China — while dedicated fermentation-route biosynthesis remains at the academic/patent stage with no company-specific commercial originator confirmed.https://en.bioecon.ru/technology/recombinant-collagen-cosmetics/Sun, 05 Jul 2026 00:00:00
