The Future of White Biotechnology in China

The Future of White Biotechnology in China

The future of white Biotechnology is attractive in China, and considerable progress in white biotechnology has been made in recent years. China’s production of many vitamins and polysaccharides products is now in a leading position in the world. Some novel WB products have been introduced to the market, such as 1,3-PDO, long-chain di-acids, etc. Fuel ethanol has been introduced into the market and now China’s annual fuel ethanol output has exceeded 1.2 million tonnes. Many companies in China intend to utilize lignocellulosic raw materials to produce fuel ethanol, with pilot-scale plants having kept being built up in China. The fast progress is largely attributed to Chinese government’s measures to encourage the development of white biotechnology. Since January 1st 2006, the Renewable Energy Law of PRC, for example, has come into force in China. Subsidies are given to the designated fuel-ethanol producers in China. Besides bio-fuels, the bio-materials will also gain strong growth momentum with China having been decided to use the bags produced from corn in Beijing Olympic Games.

This report aims to provide good understanding about the White Biotechnology in China and to find out the business opportunities in this field. This report summarizes the White Biotechnology in China from the aspects of:
Governmental polices related to white biotechnology, such as the incentive and subsidies, regulations on feedstocks, laws related to renewable energies, entry barriers or regulations to foreign investors, etc. And then possibilities for foreign investors to acquire/invest/build an industrial white biotechnology in China are assessed from policy aspect.
Renewable feedstock supply in China. Over 10 major renewable feedstocks essential to white biotechnology are summarized, including the categories of main-food materials, non-food materials, vegetable oils and lignocellulosic materials. The supply situations of corn, sugar, wheat, rice, cassava, molasses, sweet potato, sweet sorghum, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, animal oil, corn stover, corn cob, wheat/rice straw, wood wastes, etc, are summarized. For each feedstock, the fresh data to 2007 is included, emphasizing the planting area and location, volume availability, supply, demand, price history, import/export, future prospects, key application areas, etc.
Key White Biotechnology products in China. Over 30 WB-related products are summarized falling into the categories of bio-fuels, bio-materials, bio-products and bio-based chemicals. The latest info and fresh data are summarized in clear format as possible as of figures and tables. For the existing commercial products, the research emphasizes on the basic market data, producers, applications, future prospects and gross profit margin, etc. For the emerging commercial products, the analysis emphasis is laid on market demand, applications, technologies, existing & potential producers, and future prospects. For the potential products, market size, technologies and research status are the focuses. Finally, each product is assessed to position its status in China, namely whether it is under R&D, being introduced, growing, mature, or declining? At the same time a comparison between its status in China and the world is made so as to understand which products in China are in a leading/average/lagged status in the world.
Future prospects. The future development of bio-fuel and bio-materials are forecasted to 2020 according to the demand and the governmental development programs on them. In this sector, the key drivers and bottlenecks of white biotechnologies are explored. At the same time, some arguments on white biotechnology are introduced thereof, for example, the environmental footprint of bio-fuels.
? Opportunities. Market opportunities in WB industry in China are recommended and each recommendation is illustrated in SWOT analysis.
? Others. The report also presents other detailed info such as research situation of White technology in China, technical suppliers & top scientists info, key WB players’ profiles, supporting materials including water, energy, labor cost in different areas of China. Besides, you will also find a report of face-to-face interviews with players participating a WB-related exhibition in China.
