The Technology:
Electrochemical Conversion of Biomass into HVA
Our proprietary electrochemical process transforms levulinic acid (LA), sourced from lignocellulosic biomass, into HVA using electricity. The process is scalable, modular, and efficient, achieving high selectivity (>99%) and Faradaic efficiency (80%). It offers a cost-effective, eco-friendly alternative to traditional methods like fermentation or catalysis. The resulting electro-HVA (e-HVA™ ) serves as a renewable foundational molecule, enabling wide-ranging applications in sustainable materials, fuels, and chemicals. This innovation is a significant advancement in converting biomass waste streams into valuable, high-performance products.
