Easel Biotechnologies, LLC (Easel) would utilize DOE and cost share funds to use a lignocellulosic biomass source as a feedstock to produce Oxo chemicals such as isobutyraldehyde in an effort to increase yields and reduce the energy consumption of the Oxo chemical production process. All proposed project activities would occur at the existing incubator/laboratory space located on the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) campus and include laboratory scale testing, pilot process testing for commercial feasibility and project management/reporting activities.
