January 1, 2009

Emeryville, Calif.-based Amyris Biotechnologies Inc. has opened a 2 MMgy pilot-scale renewable diesel production facility. Ultimately, it will be used to perfect the company's production process for its trademarked No Compromise renewable diesel fuel. Findings from this facility will also be applied to the company's pilot plant scheduled to open in Campinas, Brazil, later this spring. While the company is using sucrose as a feedstock at the California plant, it plans to utilize Brazilian sugarcane in its future operations.
