Biobased Maine, in partnership with the University of Maine and Environmental Health Strategy Center, is seeking bids for a Global Industrial Sugar Cost Study to thoroughly characterize the current and future production of industrial sugars around the world for use in the manufacture of biobased chemicals, biofuels, and other biobased products. The manufacture of high-quality cellulosic sugars from wood fiber has been demonstrated in Maine at pilot scale. Our goal is to attract investment in commercial production of cellulosic sugars in the State. In order to be competitive within the global sugars market, a complete analysis of the current sugar producers and costs is needed. The complete Request for Proposal is available here:
