GFBiochemicals

GFBiochemicals has developed a proprietary technology platform for levulinic acid and it’s derivatives that will enable them to manufacture a variety of drop-in and substitute chemicals for new and existing markets.

Innovative

Our process has a unique reactor technology, which allows feedstock flexibility – a wide range of biomass can be used, including cellulosic waste. GFBiochemicals also developed a new technology for the recovery and purification of levulinic acid. The continuous process produces formic acid and char which are recovered. This leads to a combination of high product yields, high productivity, concentrated process streams and efficient recovery.

GFBiochemicals favorable scale-up economics outperform alternative technologies and enable entry into new market segments.
