Cellulosic ethanol is just the beginning of Mascoma’s innovation pipeline.

Bioprocessing is the technique of using the best that nature has to offer to manufacture valuable products from a renewable and sustainable source, in our case cellulosic biomass.

The strength and depth of Mascoma’s research and development activities has positioned the company for long term growth and prosperity; growth that includes a new approach to ethanol production but goes even further still. The knowledge and expertise being generated by our R&D activities can be readily transferred to target other high-value products beyond ethanol, including the transformation of biomass into valuable green chemicals and chemical intermediaries.
