6 Bioeconomy enters 1 st gen. Food-Biomass Markets State-of-the Art Just Starting Tomorrow Sugar-/Oil- Carbon

7 Big Chemical Industries step into 1 st gen. Biochemicals Succinity produces first commercial quantities of biobased succinic acid Düsseldorf, March 3, 2014 Succinity GmbH, the joint venture between Corbion Purac and BASF for the production and commercialization of biobased succinic acid, has announced the successful start-up of its first commercial production facility. The plant, located at the Corbion Purac site in Montmeló, Spain, has an annual capacity of 10,000 metric tons... BASF to build bio-bdo facility MAY 14, 2013 BASF announced that it plans to begin production of bio-bdo using Genomatica s one-step fermentation process, which uses sugar for feedstock. Currently we anticipate a plant capacity of 50,000 tons/year...

8 1. gen. Butadiene Replacement Palm-Kernel Oil as an Alternative Raw Material for Polyamide 12 Evonik is operating a pilot plant for bio-based!-amino lauric acid Essen, July 30, 2013 The biobased!-amino-lauric acid is an alternative to petroleum-based laurin lactam (LL). ALS replaces the monomer LL in the manufacture of sustainable high-performance plastics and yields an identical compound polyamide 12 (PA 12). Over the long run, the entirely new process has the potential to complement the butadiene-based production of PA12.

9 1. gen. Isobutene Pilot Plant Isobuten: Completion of basic engineering of the Leuna Demo Plant Leuna, March 18th, 2015 Markus Wolperdinger, Vice President Biotechnology Plants at Linde's Engineering Division said: We are proud to deliver to Global Bioenergies a complete basic engineering package for its process to convert sugars into isobutene, a gaseous hydrocarbon. This one-of-a-kind demo plant will be an important milestone on the way to the commercialization of Global Bioenergies innovative biotechnological processes.

10 Bioeconomy makes 2 nd gen. Non-Food-Biomass Markets State-of-the Art Just Starting Tomorrow Sugar-/Oil- Carbon Lignocellulosic- Carbon

11 2 nd gen. Ethanol, Glycols and Power established in Italy. The world's first plant for the production of second generation biofuels has been opened in Northern Italy The world s first commercial-scale plant for the production of bioethanol from nonfood biomass sources was officially inaugurated today before the Minister for Economic Development Flavio Zanonato and the local Authorities (President of the Regional Administration Roberto Cota, Mayor of Crescentino Marinella Venegoni, President of the Provincial Administration Carlo Riva Vercellotti). The Crescentino (Vercelli) bio-refinery is owned by Beta Renewables, a joint venture between Biochemtex, a Mossi Ghisolfi Group engineering company, the American fund TPG (Texas Pacific Group), and the Danish company Novozymes, a world leader in bio-innovation.

12 2 nd gen. Ethylen to be constructed in Slovakia ENERGOCHEMICA SE constructs of a 2nd Generation Ethanol plant Bratislava, 06 October 2014 Biochemtex and Beta Renewables announce they have signed a definitive agreement with ENERGOCHEMICA SE for the construction of a 2nd Generation Ethanol plant and the annexed Energy Block for the generation of power and steam. The plant, that will be built in Strazske, Slovak Republic, will deliver 55,000 metric tons per year of cost-competitive cellulosic ethanol while using nonfood biomass as its feedstock. The project begins immediately and the start-up of the plant is expected in the first half of 2017.

13 2 nd gen. PHA to be constructed in Italy Italian Companies to Generate Bioplastic from Potatoe Byproducts Bologna, 03/18/2015 The agreement between biotech firm Bio-on and potato products company Pizzoli aims to produce 2,000 tons of bioplastics annually with the hope of doubling that capacity in the future. The bioplastics, called polyhydroxyalkanoates or PHAs, could replace traditional plastic in a number of processes, the companies said. Bio-on Chairman Marco Astorri said his company's technology can already generate bioplastic from sugar beet and sugar cane byproducts, and the partnership with Pizzoli will broaden its ability to create PHAs.

14 Bioeconomy generates 3 rd gen. Recycling Feedstock State-of-the Art Just Starting Tomorrow CO 2,CO (Flue-, Syngas) Sugar-/Oil- Carbon Lignocellulosic- Carbon

15 3rd gen. Jet-Fuel under Development Jet Fuel from Steel-Mill off-gas LanzaTech is developing a revolutionary fuel that sees waste gases from industrial steel production being captured, fermented and then chemically converted for use as jet fuel. LanzaTech and Virgin Atlantic have been working together for three years on the fuel s development. A proving flight of the new technology will take place within the next year. LanzaTech estimates that its process can apply to 65 % of the world s steel mills, allowing the fuel to be scaled up for worldwide use.

16 3rd gen. Chemicals under Development Evonik and LanzaTech working on bio-processed precursors for specialty plastics Essen, December 9, 2013 Synthetic biology to enable the production of bio-processed precursors for specialty plastics made of synthesis gas Essen (Germany) and Roselle (Illinois/USA). Evonik Industries and LanzaTech have signed a three year research cooperation agreement which will see Evonik combining its existing biotechnology platforms with LanzaTech s synthetic biology and gas fermentation expertise for the development of a route to bio-processed precursors for specialty plastics from waste derived synthesis gas. In this route, microorganisms placed in fermenters are used to turn synthesis gas into chemical products. Synthesis gases comprise mainly of either carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide and hydrogen and can come from a variety of gasified biomass waste streams including forestry and agricultural residues and gasified municipal solid waste.
