On December 14, The Digest, a bioeconomy daily, featured the ABPDU (Berkeley Lab’s Advanced Biofuels Process Demonstration Unit) with an article on how the pilot has become a leader in the advanced bioeconomy. The feature article talks about the ABPDU’s capabilities and the many companies it has worked with since 2012 when it was first established. Read more on The Digest.
ABPDU Partners with Small Businesses in DOE Pilot
Through the second round of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Small Business Vouchers Pilot, eight small businesses have been awarded vouchers, totaling $1.1 million, to work with Berkeley Lab to bring their next-generation clean energy to the marketplace faster. The vouchers pay for expertise and use of facilities that help small businesses advance their technologies toward commercialization. Several Biosciences partnerships were established: Mango Materials and Zymochem bioenergy projects were awarded vouchers to work with the Advanced Biofuels Process Demonstration Unit (ABPDU). Also, a Heliobiosys project will be performed using the capabilities of both the ABPDU and Sandia National Laboratories. The Lab was chosen by the DOE as one of five national laboratories to lead the pilot and was named a lead lab in the Advanced Manufacturing, Fuel Cells, Geothermal and Vehicle technology areas.

ABPDU Featured in New Cyclotron Road Video
The Advanced Biofuels Process Demonstration Unit (ABPDU) is featured in the new Cyclotron Road video. Cyclotron Road located at Berkeley Lab is a home for top entrepreneurial researchers to advance technologies until they can succeed beyond the research lab. The Visolis project led by Deepak Dugar which aims at the bio-based production of carbon-negative, high-performance polymers, proved its process at ABPDU’s 300 liter scale fermenters. Watch the video here.
