Feedstock Options
The BioForming™ process can economically utilize many types of carbohydrates from cellulosic and biomass-derived feedstocks. These include:
- Glycerol (by-product of biodiesel production)
- Glucose and Sucrose (from sugar crops)
- Starches (glucose containing polysaccharides)
- Long-chained glucose contained in cellulose (plant cell walls)
- C5 and C6 sugars such as xylose, arabinose, and glucose contained in hemicellulose (part of the protective covering around cellulose)
