Abstract

The AVAP™ biorefinery technology from American Process Inc. is a flexible, cost-effective process for production of cellulose-, sugar-, and lignin-based products from biomass. The process is currently operating at demonstration scale in the southern United States and supplying products to partners for conversion to fuels, biochemicals, and other advanced biobased materials. Engineering for the first commercial facility is underway.
