R&D
Our R&D sector is dedicated to pioneering advancements in bioplastics, biosensors, carbon capture via biomineralization, and bioprospecting technologies, driving innovation towards sustainable solutions for a greener future
Microbial conversion of organic food waste into high-quality bioplastic polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) promotes sustainable bioplastic production, reducing landfill use, cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and offering a cost-effective alternative to petroleum-based plastics
Using microbes as biosensors to detect pollution is an advanced approach in environmental monitoring. These biosensors are sensitive and cost-effective, producing real-time data when exposed to contaminants, thereby enhancing pollution detection and supporting sustainable environmental management
Microbial biomineralization harnesses the potential of microbes to capture and store carbon, offering a promising approach to reduce atmospheric CO2 levels and mitigate climate change.
Bioprospecting has significant potential for industry and the environment, from discovering enzymes to degrade pollutants for environmental cleanup to finding natural biocontrol agents that reduce the need for chemical pesticides, minimizing environmental impact.
