EC 200-075-1
Also known as dextrose and D(+)-glucose.
chemXplore tracks 4 projects involving glucose, of which 3 are active.
3 produce it and 1 uses it as feedstock.
Of the active ones, 3 new construction.
Q3 sales €2,202m and comparable EBIT €131m; operating cash flow rose to €420m as working‑capital measures offset lower deliveries and higher variable costs.
World’s largest lignocellulosic biorefinery with 220,000 t/yr capacity converts beechwood and sawmill residues into industrial sugars and lignin for renewable chemicals and fuels.
Interactive tool uses experimental separation data to predict chromatograms, suggest candidate resins, and speed early evaluation of sugar and sweetener separations.
EU approval allows plant‑based, fermented L‑cysteine/L‑cystine as sensory additives for all animal species; products suit multiple dosage forms and are supplied from Europe.
Q2 comparable EBIT rose 71% to €212m; portfolio moves include a graphic paper joint venture and approved demerger of the plywood unit.
Cassava pulp was converted to bio-muconic, then bio-adipic acid and 100% bio-based nylon 66. Pilot saccharification, fermentation, refinement and lab polymerization.
High double‑digit €m investment started commercial fermentation of biological crop actives (B. amyloliquefaciens, P. coprobium), boosting production flexibility and supply resilience.
The biorefinery produces industrial sugars, enabling renewable glycols and lignin fillers, supporting the shift from fossil to bio-based materials, with full operations expected by 2026.
UPM's new pigment, derived from lignin, offers recyclability and a carbon-negative footprint, addressing black packaging's recycling challenges and supporting sustainable packaging solutions.
Futerro's biorefinery in Normandy aims to produce bio-based plastics, with support from local authorities, targeting production by early 2029.
