1 WELCOME TO The BREW Project Medium and long-term opportunities and risks of the biotechnological production of bulk chemicals from renewable resources Fraunhofer ISI Institute Systems and Innovation Research CERISS

2 BREW - Organisational issues 1. Consortium 2. Finances & roles of partners 3. Contract changes 4. Product overview 5. Book proposal 6. BREW website (members‘ section) 7. Cost statements 8. Time plan

3 1. Consortium Dechema taking over conference (WP9) ACTIN out, UU taking over Projection of the market potential (WP 6)

4 2. Finances & roles of partners No financial contribution to Dechema for organizing conference (but EUR 5000 for inviting experts from abroad) Saved funds for calculating investment costs of biorecovery by DSM

5 3. Contract changes (revised DoW not yet submitted to EU) Extra funds for DSM for investment costs Degussa and novozymes IN Actin OUT UU takes over WP 6 from Actin, more consumables More travel funds for UCM DuPont as “Full cost” partner ATO  A&FI Contract extension to May 2005

6 4. Product overview / BREWtool (1/2) ATO  (Biotech) Hydrogen  PHA  Lysine: OUT  Adipic acid: Generic approach BP  Acetic acid (via ATO)  Support on petchem. data Cargill DOW  LA  PLA  Corn growing  CWM  IFEU (anaerobic digestion?), NREL?, DSM  various petchem. and biotech products DuPont  PDO Shell  Ethylene (via bioethanol)  LA  Ethyl lactate  Methyl ethyl ketone  Adipic acid

7 4. Product overview / BREWtool (2/2) UCM  Diglycerol monooleate (biosurfactant)  Diglycerol monolaureate (biosurfactant)  Glycerol monopalmitate (biosurfactant)  Glycerol monoricinolate (biosurfactant)  Glycerol monooleate (biosurfactant)  Oleyl oleate (biolubricant)  Isopropyl myristate (Cosmetics)  n-Octyl octanoate (Cosmetics) – Ester  Maybe: Biodiesel from used frying oils and methanol  Products obtained by nucleophilic enzymatic opening of epoxides (intermediates of pharmaceutical products e.g. polyfunctionalized molecules) Uniqema Multiple products from enzymatic processing pathways.  Splitting of fats and oils to a) fatty acid b) glycerin (co-product: RME)  Transesterification of rapeseed oil with methanol  natural alcohol ex methylester  surfactant production Novozymes  see above Roquette  LCA starch to glucose/dextrose Degussa  PDO (pchem)  Acrylamide (biotech)
