Sustainable Biomanufacturing: How White Biotechnology Enables Green Chemistry

White biotechnology utilizes living cells like yeast, molds, microorganisms, and enzymes for renewable and sustainable production of fuels, chemicals, materials, and medicines.

Tools like metabolic engineering, fermentation, enzymatic biocatalysis, and directed evolution optimize microbial and plant biology to efficiently convert raw materials into value-added green products.

Key Benefits of White Biotechnology

  • Achieves high specificity under mild conditions with less waste vs conventional chemistry.
  • Enables renewable feedstocks like agricultural wastes and algae to be utilized.
  • Products are easily degraded and create less waste.
  • Consumes less energy and emits fewer greenhouse gases.

 

Major Host Organisms for Industrial Biotech

Engineered strains of:

  • Bacteria
  • Yeast
  • Algae
  • Fungi

Tailored metabolism converts sugars, waste lipids, and CO2 into target compounds like:

  • Ethanol
  • Organic acids
  • Biopolymers

 

Applications and End Products

White biotechnology enables sustainable production of:

  • Biofuels
  • Renewable chemicals
  • Bioplastics
  • Ingredients
  • Agriculture products
  • Cosmetics
  • Textiles

Key markets are driven by demand for greener alternatives but face challenges like regulations. Future outlook is positive.
