Executive Summary
Chemistry is the backbone of modern industry, but it needs a green makeover. Bio-based chemicals, produced via industrial biotechnology, offer a path to significantly lower emissions and reduced reliance on petrochemicals.
Key Metrics
- 30–50%: Lower process emissions for bio-based chemicals compared to fossil equivalents.
Core Content
The Challenge
Most chemicals today are derived from oil and gas. Decarbonizing this sector is notoriously difficult but essential for reaching net-zero goals.
The Solution
The strategy promotes „Green Chemistry”—using enzymes and microorganisms to produce chemicals.
* Scale-Up: Supporting the industrialization of biotechnology.
* Market Pull: Considering bio-based content requirements for certain products.
* Efficiency: Utilizing microbial processes that often require less energy than traditional chemical synthesis.
The Impact
Bio-based chemicals deliver:
* Massive carbon footprint reductions (up to 50%).
* Strategic autonomy by replacing imported petrochemicals with European biomass.
