We are excited to announce that iMicrobes is part of BioMADE's nine groundbreaking projects.
iMicrobes was selected for "Upscaling and Downscaling Purification for a Novel Bioplastic Process" to turn waste materials such as CO2, ethanol, and methane into a biodegradable plastic.
Countdown to @synbiobeta 2024 in San Jose: 1 week!
Come see our co-founder @NoahHelman discuss why distributed manufacturing is essential for a circular economy and why bioproduction of chemicals will be critical.
>>> Tues 7 May at 1.45pm <<<

Have you heard people say, "Gas fermentation will never work"?
Guess what? IT ALREADY WORKS AT LARGE SCALE.
Our CTO Liz Clarke recently published her thoughts on gas fermentation and how it can help us fight climate change.

Lager was born when a white ale and a brown beer met in a cellar of the original Munich Hofbräuhaus and exchanged yeasts sometime btw 1602 and 1615, a new synthesis of historical brewing records and genetic histories of yeast concludes...

Come hear how @iMicrobesInc is building methane-consuming bacteria to power the #CircularEconomy. I've got exciting news to share!
Looking forward to seeing you all @SynBioBeta in Oakland in under one month!
.@iMicrobesInc is building a key technology for the #CircularEconomy –the ability to use waste feedstocks as the rebuilding blocks of the chemical industry to make biobased, carbon-negative, cost-competitive products. @NoahHelman will be at #SynBioBeta2023 synbiobeta.com/

Methane emissions from wastewater treatment are 2x previous estimates?!? And wastewater emissions are 5-10% of global emissions?!?

Let's capture and use that methane for the Circular Economy!

A Circular Economy will require turning our society's wastes back into useful products. Waste is the feedstock of the future. Given the volume, diversity, and variability of waste, how will this be possible? imicrobes.com/blog-clone-167…
We are working with our partners to make carbon-negative products using waste methane. C1 molecules are Feedstocks of the Circular Economy of the Future.

There is much work left to be done, but we are optimistic that a better, more sustainable future is possible. Get in touch to learn how we can work together toward this goal:
