Renewable Feedstock

Soyad™ Adhesive Technology

Water-based systems wood adhesives formulated with natural soy flour and a proprietary crosslinking resin. Soyad adhesive technology is a patented, bio-based, formaldehyde-free adhesive system developed by the modification of amino acids of soy proteins, resulting in environmentally friendly hardwood plywood and engineering wood flooring. The soy flour and resin blend forms a durable, water-resistant thermoset adhesive similar to the strength and performance of urea-formaldehyde-based adhesives.

Renewable Fuels Made From Agricultural and Industrial Waste

Aemetis specializes in the production of biofuels, renewable chemicals, and carbon capture technologies for renewable fuels. The company operates ethanol production facilities and is expanding with new projects focused on renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel. Aemetis utilizes advanced technologies to convert agricultural and industrial feedstocks (such as orchard wood waste) into ethanol, other biofuels, and renewable chemicals like isobutanol.

Nisarg™ Soapnut Extract

Naturally derived surfactant from the fruit of the Indian Soapnut Tree. Nisarg™ Soapnut Extract is naturally extracted from saponins from the Indian Soapnut tree. Soapnut is a commonly used surfactant in Asia and Native America due to its water-soluble and fat-soluble components. Soapnut is a milder surfactant than traditional sulfonated synthetic surfactants because its pH is more balanced with the skin's natural pH, resulting in less irritation and dryness. Soapnut can be used in shampoos, shower foams, facewash, toothpaste, hair colorants, and other personal care products.
