L2M – A Dual-Purpose Biotechnological Platform for Transforming Emissions into Sustainable Biomaterials

This project explores a flexible biotechnology platform that converts greenhouse gas emissions and industrial residues, such as methane and crude glycerol, into valuable biomaterials like PHB, using microbial cultures under high-density fermentation. During the internship, market research and interviews will be conducted to identify potential partners and early adopters, evaluate where the platform creates the most value, and define how it can operate as a viable business model within Canada’s emerging decarbonization framework.
