ZeaChem

edit

ZeaChem Inc. has developed a cellulose-based biorefinery platform capable of producing third-generation fuels, such as ethanol, and intermediate chemicals. Our indirect approach leapfrogs the yield and carbon dioxide (CO2) problems associated with traditional and cellulosic based processes.

ZeaChem’s patented process offers the highest yield, at the lowest cost, with the lowest fossil carbon footprint of any known biorefining method. Incorporated in 2002, ZeaChem is headquartered in Lakewood, Colorado and operates a research and development laboratory facility in Menlo Park, California.
