Subjects: *SUSTAINABLE engineering, *PROTEIN engineering, *SPECIALTY chemicals, *LOW temperatures, *MANUFACTURING industries, *BIODEGRADABLE plastics, *CHEMICAL cleaning
Abstract: The article describes the progress in enzyme engineering for more sustainable detergents. Enzymes are biodegradable and effective at low temperatures, but they can be affected by other ingredients. Through technical modifications of the proteins, enzymes can be further developed and stabilized in the laboratory. It is discussed that chemical stabilizers can be problematic and alternative solutions should be explored. The current advancements in protein engineering enable sustainable detergents without chemical stabilizers and provide improved cleaning performance at low temperatures. Nouryon is a globally leading specialty chemicals manufacturer that offers solutions for various industries. [Extracted from the article]

Subjects: *NATURAL products, *PLASTIC scrap, *SUSTAINABLE development, *RAW materials, *BIODEGRADABLE plastics, *COSMETICS packaging
Abstract: The article deals with the aim of developing sustainable packaging solutions for high-quality cosmetic products. The company rezemo has developed a material group under the brand name forewood, which consists of bio-based raw materials and represents an alternative to fossil plastics. It is emphasized that wood, as a natural product, plays an important role in the development of sustainable packaging. Deposit systems are mentioned as one of the best options for sustainable packaging solutions. The European Commission has set the goal of recycling half of the annual plastic waste by 2030. Bioplastics are described as a sustainable alternative to fossil plastics. rezemo GmbH offers sustainable packaging solutions under the brand name forewood and works with customers to develop individual solutions.

Abstract: The bioreactor by Festo enables efficient and large-scale photosynthesis of algae. Algae are efficient climate savers as they bind ten times more carbon dioxide than land plants. By cultivating algae in closed loops, biomass can be bred highly efficiently and resource-friendly. Festo relies on digitization, artificial intelligence, and quantum sensing to optimize the cultivation of biomass. The researchers focus on cultivating the blue-green algae Synechocystis, which produces color pigments, omega-3 fatty acids, and polyhydroxybutyric acid (PHB). Festo has also developed software that allows for the mapping of multiple photobioreactors with current data and live recordings. In collaboration with the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology in Marburg, a dispensing machine has been developed to improve photosynthesis enzymes. The production of biomass can be made energy-efficient and sustainable through these technologies. It is also discussed that alternatives to plastic production are needed as plastics are often non-biodegradable. Projects like the Festo bioreactor can contribute to reducing CO2 emissions and producing environmentally friendly plastics. [Extracted from the article]

Abstract: The company DLM was founded in 1987 and today produces protective caps. Over 55 percent of the production is exported abroad. DLM has chosen to use second-life and recyclable plastics, as biodegradable materials and bioplastics do not meet environmental requirements. The company has also taken measures to reduce energy consumption, such as the introduction of hybrid injection molding machines and the installation of solar panels. DLM has also implemented various improvements in the production processes to reduce waste and CO2 emissions. [Extracted from the article]

Abstract: The lubricant manufacturer Zeller+Gmelin has launched two new products on the market: Divinol SynthoHyd Eco46, a fully synthetic, biodegradable multi-grade hydraulic oil that is ideal for use in environmentally sensitive areas and rationalizes lubricant requirements, as well as Divinol Multipurpose Grease Ca 2, a lithium-free calcium soap-based grease that has been developed as a sustainable alternative to conventional greases. These products are intended to meet the demand for environmentally friendly and resource-saving lubricants. In particular, the hydraulic oil is also suitable for outdoor use under extreme conditions.
