HOUSTON & CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Solugen, a rapidly scaling climate technology company that is reimagining the chemistry of everyday life, and ADM (NYSE:ADM), a global leader in sustainable solutions, today announced a strategic partnership to scale a range of innovative, plant-based specialty chemicals and bio-based building block molecules in a new manufacturing facility in Marshall, Minnesota..

HOUSTON＆CHICAGO-（BUSINESS WIRE）-快速发展的气候技术公司Solugen正在重新想象日常生活的化学性质，而可持续解决方案的全球领导者ADM（NYSE:ADM）今天宣布战略合作伙伴关系在马歇尔的一家新制造工厂中扩大一系列创新的，基于植物的特种化学品和基于生物的积木分子，明尼苏达州。。

Under the terms of the agreement, Solugen will build a new 500,000-square-foot biomanufacturing facility adjacent to ADM’s existing corn complex in Marshall. The facility will utilize ADM-provided dextrose to scale its current line of lower-carbon organic acids and develop new, innovative molecules to replace existing fossil fuel-based materials.

根据协议条款，Solugen将在马歇尔ADM现有玉米综合体附近建造一个新的500000平方英尺生物制造设施。该设施将利用ADM提供的葡萄糖来扩大其目前的低碳有机酸生产线，并开发新的创新分子来取代现有的化石燃料基材料。

The companies also plan to collaborate on commercialization opportunities of these biomaterials for a range of applications including energy, water treatment, agriculture, construction materials, cleaning, personal care, and more..

这些公司还计划合作这些生物材料的商业化机会，包括能源，水处理，农业，建筑材料，清洁，个人护理等一系列应用。。

“The strategic partnership with ADM will allow Solugen to bring our chemienzymatic process to a commercial scale and meet existing customer demand for our high-performance, cost-competitive, sustainable products,” said Gaurab Chakrabarti, Co-Founder and CEO of Solugen. “As one of the few scaled-up and de-risked biomanufacturing assets in the country, Solugen’s Bioforge platform is helping bolster domestic capabilities and supply chains that are critical in ensuring the U.S.

Solugen的联合创始人兼首席执行官Gaurab Chakrabarti说：“与ADM的战略合作关系将使Solugen能够将我们的化学酶工艺实现商业规模，并满足现有客户对我们高性能，具有成本竞争力，可持续发展的产品的需求。“作为国内为数不多的扩大和去风险的生物制造资产之一，Solugen的Bioforge平台正在帮助增强对确保美国至关重要的国内能力和供应链。

reaches its ambitious climate targets.”.

达到雄心勃勃的气候目标。”。

Leveraging a first-of-its-kind combination of computationally engineered enzymes and metal catalysts, Solugen’s Bioforge converts plant-derived substances into essential materials that have traditionally been made from fossil fuels. The high efficiency and scalability of Solugen’s process can offer a significant reduction in carbon footprint compared with conventional ingredients..

Solugen的生物炉利用计算工程酶和金属催化剂的首次组合，将植物衍生物质转化为传统上由化石燃料制成的基本材料。与传统成分相比，Solugen工艺的高效率和可扩展性可以显着减少碳足迹。。

“Sustainability is one of the enduring global trends powering ADM’s growth and underpinning the strategic evolution of our Carbohydrate Solutions business,” said Chris Cuddy, president of ADM’s Carbohydrate Solutions business. “ADM is one of the largest dextrose producers in the world, and this strategic partnership will allow us to further diversify our product stream as we continue to support plant-based solutions spanning sustainable packaging, pharma, plant health, construction, fermentation, and home and personal care.”.

ADM碳水化合物解决方案业务总裁克里斯·库迪（Chris Cuddy）说：“可持续发展是推动ADM增长并支撑我们碳水化合物解决方案业务战略发展的持久全球趋势之一。“ADM是世界上最大的葡萄糖生产商之一，随着我们继续支持跨越可持续包装，制药，植物健康，建筑，发酵以及家庭和个人护理“。

Solugen plans to begin offsite construction this year and on-site construction in early 2024. The initial phase, which is scheduled to start up in the first half of 2025, is expected to create at least 40 permanent jobs and another 100 temporary construction jobs during commissioning.

Solugen计划今年开始场外施工并于2024年初进行现场施工。计划于2025年上半年启动的初始阶段预计将在调试期间创造至少40个永久性工作和另外100个临时建筑工作。

“The initial phase of the project will significantly increase Solugen’s manufacturing capacity, which is critical for commercializing our existing line of molecules and kicks off plans for a multi-phase large-scale U.S. Bioforge buildout,” said Sean Hunt, Co-Founder and CTO of Solugen. “The increase in capacity will also free up our Houston operation for research and development efforts into additional molecules and market applications.”.

Solugen的联合创始人兼首席技术官Sean Hunt说：“该项目的初始阶段将显着提高Solugen的制造能力，这对于将我们现有的分子生产线商业化并启动多阶段大规模美国生物有机体建设的计划至关重要。“产能的提高也将释放我们休斯顿的研发工作，使其成为额外的分子和市场应用。”。

With a robust and cost-competitive supply of corn, alongside advanced corn-to-dextrose conversion technology, Marshall is the ideal location to support the scale of Solugen’s products. The city boasts a vibrant community, a pool of skilled workforce, and a proactive approach from local and regional governments, all eager to welcome innovative, high-tech industries..

凭借强大且具有成本竞争力的玉米供应，以及先进的玉米-葡萄糖转化技术，马歇尔是支持Solugen产品规模的理想场所。该市拥有充满活力的社区，熟练的劳动力队伍，以及来自地方和地区政府的积极主动的方法，都渴望欢迎创新的高科技产业。。

'As a community with a strong foundation of agriculture and innovation, we look forward to welcoming Solugen to Marshall. This industry-leading facility will serve as a powerful economic driver for the city, creating new jobs and diversifying our industry,” said City of Marshall Mayor Bob Byrnes. 'We are thankful for ADM’s longstanding commitment and impact to Marshall, which has paved the way for this remarkable partnership and continues to further economic growth to our region.'.

“作为一个拥有强大农业和创新基础的社区，我们期待欢迎马歇尔参加解决方案。马歇尔市长鲍伯恩斯（Bob Byrnes）说，这个行业领先的设施将成为这座城市强大的经济驱动力，创造新的就业机会并使我们的行业多样化我们感谢ADM对马歇尔的长期承诺和影响，马歇尔为这一非凡的伙伴关系铺平了道路，并继续推动我们地区的经济增长。
