Founders
Technology - SYCLE Process
Our work streams on technology:
-
Optimize process to convert sugars present in biomass into FDCA
-
Develop new catalysts to increase performance and efficiency
-
Control the purity of the FDCA
-
Qualify and expand the range of biomasses usable by our process
-
Ensure the remaining biomass is valued in our process
​
SYCLE stands in french for synthesis of a polyvalent material by extraction
Demonstration
We are designing a demonstrator, in order to accurately assess the technology, business model and benefits for each stakeholder of the value chain:
-
Farmers, biomass, and sugar suppliers
-
Agrifood industries
-
Food distributors
-
Actors of purification
-
Polymerists
-
End-users
-
Communities
Industry
We will qualify applications of FDCA
-
Biobased epoxies and without bisphenol A, to ensure health and environmental protection, and comply with regulations
-
3D printing, allowing industry to use more local resources, reduce their carbon footprint, optimize their parts supply and storage costs
-
Bio-sourced food packaging with improved oxygen, carbon dioxide, water and bacteria sealing properties allowing longer shelf life
We quantify the added value of our technology, through a value chain approach,
with regard to the challenges of the ecological transition.
