Solugen employs a groundbreaking approach to chemical manufacturing through its proprietary Bioforge technology, which integrates computationally engineered enzymes and metal catalysis to transform plant-derived feedstocks into essential chemical products. This innovative process begins with bio-based materials such as dextrose, water, and compressed air, which are introduced into a cell-free enzyme oxidation reactor. The engineered enzymes facilitate a highly efficient conversion process that operates at room temperature and requires minimal energy input. Following this, proprietary metal catalysts enhance the throughput and selectivity of the reactions, resulting in high yields of sustainable products while significantly reducing emissions and waste compared to traditional chemical manufacturing methods.

The company’s commitment to sustainability is further reflected in its modular manufacturing capabilities, allowing the Bioforge to be deployed in various locations, thereby decentralizing production and promoting local supply chains. Solugen's advanced research and development efforts leverage artificial intelligence and machine learning to optimize enzyme performance and streamline production processes. This includes rigorous quality control measures and the use of sophisticated analytical techniques to ensure the consistency and purity of the final products. By focusing on high-performing, cost-competitive, and environmentally friendly solutions, Solugen aims to revolutionize multiple industries, including energy, agriculture, and personal care, while contributing to a more sustainable future.
