Plant active ingredients are widely used across the agrifood, pharmaceutical and cosmetics markets to enhance the health and well-being of people all around the world. Up until now, the essential phytochemical molecules required to produce this wide range of products had only three sources, each with their set of drawbacks: Agriculture, traditional biotechnology or chemical synthesis.
Agriculture production is dependent on the extended usage of a variety of compounds such as fertilizers, pesticides, and many others. Also, it is often impacted by climate, soil characteristics, time to plant maturity, extended logistic chains, usage of fossil fuels to support said logistics and geopolitical uncertainties.
Some ways of producing high-value molecules are better than others.
Traditional biotechnology processes based on transgenic microbes require nutrients diverted from feed and food usage, consume energy that is not always renewable and produce CO2 emissions.
Lastly, many valuable molecules can’t be produced through chemical synthesis. This process still requires the usage of often toxic catalysts and reagents, extreme PH and temperature levels and complex infrastructure that consumes energy and produces CO2 emissions.
Aplantex has developed a proprietary green biotech platform for the extraction of high-value plant active ingredients from an exclusive plant biomass. Our biomass has an average doubling time of 48 hours and consumes 40 % of its dry weight of atmospheric CO2. It is produced locally within a loop requiring only diluted mineral nutrients and renewable hydroelectrical power. The residual biomass of the transformation process can be entirely reused/recycled as a valuable component in the production of animal feed and pet food.
Our process does not require complex logistics, is powered by renewable energy, has zero waste, and aims to be carbon negative. It can provide a wide range of markets, without interruptions with the essential phytochemical molecules they require at a lower cost. All of the commodity market must haves! A disruptive application of green biotech, compatible with the 4th Industrial Revolution and fully embedded within the circular economy principles. At Aplantex, we breathe, live and transpire ESG principles and we are proud of it !
