Leaf Resources (ASX:LER) owns the IP for a new pre-treatment process to extract cellulose from biomass. It is a disruptive technology with the potential to reshape the economics of using large scale renewable biomass as a feedstock (and an alternative to oil) into the chemicals, plastics and downstream industries; fast growing, billion dollar industries.
Leaf Resources has signed a Collaboration Agreement with ZeaChem Inc. of Lakewood, Colorado covering the evaluation by ZeaChem and Leaf Resources of the Leaf Glycell TMprocess for the production of fermentable sugars at ZeaChem’s demonstration plant at Boardman, Oregon.
This collaboration agreement is a major step forward for Leaf Resources in the commercialisation of its Glycell TM process. A successful evaluation will validate the process at commercial scale, provide a clear pathway for prospective licensors who may require plant modifications and is likely to lead to licensing opportunities.
