CNAM-Bio Center
The overall goals of the CNAM-Bio Center are to synthesize low cost biodegradable biopolymers from renewable sources (such as agricultural waste biomass and methane) using polymer-producing microbes and extremophilic bioprocessing; and to develop commercially viable processes to transform these materials into valuable biopolymer and biocomposite products.
