The CarbaZymes Project

The CarbaZymes Project, “Sustainable Industrial Processes Based on a C–C Bond-Forming Enzyme Platform”, was funded by the EU under the Horizon 2020 Innovation Action call Biotechnology with € 8.2 million. Biotechnology is a Key Enabling Technology (KET) that will allow European industries to remain globally competitive in the future, to save on energy and resources, to develop solutions for current societal challenges and to capitalize on new markets.

Carbazymes aims to improve industrial processes through sustainable and innovative biocatalytic carboligation processes. Carbazymes will produce much needed Active Pharmaceutical ingredients (API´s) and bulk chemicals by using a broad platform of unique C-C bond catalysing enzymes, in an innovative, cost-efficient and environmentally friendly way.
