Again, a German-Danish startup, is establishing a bioreactor facility in Texas City to transform CO2 into sustainable chemical products. Located in a key petrochemical hub, the plant aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80% by fermenting CO2 captured from local refineries using ancient bacteria. This approach could revolutionize acetate production, responsible for multiple commercial applications, while being cost-competitive with fossil fuel-derived chemicals. Again’s previous projects include a pilot plant in Copenhagen and a planned facility in Norway backed by EU funding, addressing the petrochemical industry's substantial contribution to global emissions.
Again's innovative approach to turning CO2 into valuable chemicals could significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the petrochemical industry while satisfying demand for sustainable products.
By locating their new facility in Texas City, Again aims to tap into the high demand for sustainably produced chemicals while leveraging existing local infrastructure for efficiency.
The company’s technology offers a solution to the 4% of global GHG emissions contributed by the petrochemical sector, making it both impactful and competitive.
With the potential to reduce emissions by up to 80%, Again's bioreactor plants signify a significant advancement in giving a new life to CO2.
