During the project period (FY2023 to FY2030), the following three themes will be addressed.
- During the project period (FY2023 to FY2030), the following three themes will be addressed.
- Development and demonstration of production technology using microorganisms capable of producing substances from CO2 (Kaneka, JGC HD, Shimadzu)
Kaneka is the first company in the world to successfully commercialize KANEKA Biodegradable Polymer Green PlanetTM ("Green Planet"), which is produced by microorganisms from vegetable oil and other raw materials. - Bacchus aims to drastically shorten the breeding time of smart cells*3 by upgrading the breeding platform consolidating its proprietary technologies.
- By utilizing its own digital technology, Bacchus will design cells optimized for gas fermentation and create a variety of species.
