Biomass Reengineered

Biomass has limitless potential – we unlock it at a molecular level.    

altM is an alternate materials company

We harness readily available yet often overlooked biomass
sources, specifically post-harvest agricultural residue,  
as our primary input material

Phase 1

Biomass Pretreatment

Step 1 : Aggregation: Agricultural biomass from various sources to feed our biomass agnostic technology.

Step 2 : Preprocessing: Removing impurities and preparing biomass for efficient deconstruction.

Phase 2

Thermochemical Deconstruction

Step 3 : Biopolymer fractionation: Applying heat and chemicals to break biomass into constituent fractions.

Step 4 : Separation: Isolating constituent fractions for final purification.

Step 5 : Purification: Refining fractions to remove impurities for higher-quality biopolymer streams.

Phase 3

Catalytic Upgradation

Step 6 : Activation: Modifying biopolymers for improved catalytic reaction efficiency.

Step 7 : Derivatization: Transforming base chemicals into higher-value derivatives through catalytic processes.

Step 8 : Product Finishing: Final processing to meet quality standards and specifications for end-use form factors and applications.
