The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to Arzeda Corp. to produce polymer-grade alpha-methylene butyrolactone (MBL) via a fermentation-downstream process and confirm the performance-enhanced properties of MBL-containing polymers. Project work would seek to optimize and lower the costs of production of MBL.
