De-risking critical supply chains

Better than Alchemy.

Turning CO2 into Interferon-alpha. Biology performs a biochemical transformation that is more significant than turning straw into gold. 

Step 1

The 'Rolls-Royce engine' of biology

A patented record-breaking genetically engineered cell. Robust. Scalable. Doubles every 2.2 hours. Does not need sugars or FBS. This is the chassis on which all our production is built.

Step 2

Deciphering 3 million base pairs of DNA code

We turn the chassis into a powerful molecular factory - secreting valuable molecules synthesised from absorbed CO2. 

 

Two years of intense development produced patented cloning methods, CRISPR and a proprietary library of genetic parts and unique methods. CyanoCapture has quietly engineered 200+ strains with unparalleled degrees of freedom. 

Step 3

Self-reliant plug-and-play systems

These cells are loaded into low-cost vessels and pumped with CO2 and exposed to outdoor or artificial illumination. Cells self-replicate and self-repair its biomachinery.

Step 4

Unparalleled manufacturing efficiency

$40+ billion worth of high-value compounds can be synthesised at radically low cost by eliminating expensive ingredients.

Case Study

A $30bn market drug molecule - breakthrough

Though this drug is currently manufactured already by genetically engineered microbes, so far no one has been able to power this process without using chemical energy inputs. We are the first company globally to successfully synthesise this molecule using a zero-sugar process.
