Florent Allais from AgroParisTech speaks to The Innovation Platform about the importance of combining biotechnologies, green chemistry, and downstream processes when fostering sustainable innovation.<\/h2>\n

Faced with the depletion of fossil resources and fluctuating prices, climate change, and environmental and health issues, our society must not only find more sustainable and safer goods, but also devise and optimise durable industrial production processes to produce them. To engage in such an industrial revolution, scientists have turned to biomass, as well as green chemistry<\/a> and biotechnologies<\/a>, to replace fossil resources and classic petroleum-based chemistry, and offer novel bio-based and safe products. Making such a giant technological leap turns out to be quite complex as:<\/p>\n
