SubsidieMeestersNovel business model enabled by a patented fermentation technology to produce 100% biodegradable textile fibres from CO2-emissions
The project aims to transform CO2 emissions from energy-intensive industries into biodegradable textile fibers using patented fermentation technology, reducing pollution and creating sustainable materials.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Our innovation is the creation of a disruptive business model in the textile industry by establishing a new interconnection between two industrial value chains that are typically not connected: CO2-emitting industry such as energy-intensive sectors, e.g. chemical industry, and the textile industry.
Technology Overview
The innovation is enabled by our patented fermentation technology which turns harmful industrial CO2 gases into valuable, 100% biodegradable biopolymers.
CO2 Capture and Conversion
We capture CO2 emissions before their release into the atmosphere and use them as feedstock to produce added-value PHA biopolymers through a highly efficient, high-yield fermentation process.
- In this process, 2.5 tonnes of CO2 are turned into 1 tonne of PHA biopolymer.
- From this biopolymer, textile fibres are produced and sold at current market prices (€1/kg).
Environmental Impact
The material can be used for several years and fully decomposes within 1 year in industrial or home compost conditions or in the marine environment, thus preventing plastic pollution.
