Solutions for lignofuels and Biochemical industry

MetZyme® solutions are individually tailored for each lignocellulosic biomass and process. MetZyme® can handle a wide range of the process parameters beyond typical enzyme-related restrictions. In biofuel applications, MetZyme® breaks the recalcitrance, catalyzes lignin reactions, and together with its powerful cellulase and hemicellulase complexes the solution enables more thorough hydrolysis. Oxidoreductases eliminate a wide range of known inhibitors that may slow down your process or end up in side streams.

This combinatory action between oxidoreductases and hydrolases result in increased  yield of reducing sugars as well as potentially accelerated conversion or fermentation rates.

C5/C6 Platform Solutions

MetZyme® solution’s extraordinary performance in wide range of operating conditions – even the most challenging ones – enable effective lignin processing and sugar conversion. Ultimately allowing for affordable production of cellulosic sugars and value added chemicals.

MetZyme® has wide pH and temperature capabilities allowing it to be readily adopted to many biorefinery processes. MetGen’s team of experts are always available to ensure the right dosing point – and offers all the help needed to optimize the new enhanced process

Specialty chemicals

MetZyme® products for specialty chemicals are customized individually for each substrate and process to significantly improve the economics of lignocellulosic chemical production.

MetZyme® PURECO™ products consist of a variety of novel enzymes needed for challenging conversions and conditions in complex value-chains.  

These enzymes can be optimized for wide range of pH and temperature specifications as well as other harsh conditions, such as high concentration of solvents, allowing for a drop-in solution to most biorefinery processes. Our products are typically liquid solutions designed for easy and safe application in process.

MetGen’s team of experts are always available to ensure the right dosing point – and offers all the help needed to optimize the new enhanced process.

MetGen continuously develops new enzymes for new applications to compliment and improve the strong value proposition to the industry. Take a look on the INNOVATIONS and MetZyme® PURECO™

Lignin crafting technologies

In specific conditions MetZyme® oxidative action leads to catalytic fragmentation of lignin to low molecular weight aromatic compounds, which can open opportunities for new value added-product streams in biorefineries. These new streams can be further utilized – e.g. polymerized or depolymerized – by further enzymatic conversion
