De Dietrich® embraces Green Chemistry and establishes a partnership with SAS PIVERT
Designing sustainable and competitive chemical processes

In April 2015, De Dietrich® and SAS PIVERT signed a partnership agreement to equip the BIOGIS Center and to combine the resources of both companies to develop innovative plant-based chemistry solutions. This partnership allows both companies to share their expertise and industrialize new processes using bio-based raw materials, particularly oilseed biomass. “Sustainable development is a value shared by both of our companies. We are very pleased to initiate this partnership.” declared De Dietrich® President and CEO Daniel Steck at the time.

“Research advances in catalytic chemistry require adaptable equipment capable of working in diverse conditions in order to develop sustainable and competitive solutions. We work towards this goal with De Dietrich, to develop innovative plant-based chemistry solutions.” declared SAS PIVERT CEO Gilles Ravot.

The BIOGIS Center is equipped with a complete and innovative reaction and distillation system which is entirely remote controlled (utilities and automation), allowing distillations and reaction mixtures (homogenization, suspension, dispersion, crystallization...) to be performed on a variety of oilseed biomasses.

Within this partnership, De Dietrich® contributes its particular expertise in managing projects and studies up to their market release, as well as carrying out user training.
The new processes designed within the BIOGIS Center will allow SAS PIVERT's industrial partners to be at the cutting edge of innovation in plant-based chemistry.
Thanks to this partnership, new molecules and new processes stemming from research will be available for industrial use.

Opening up innovation, from plants to chemistry

BIOGIS Center is a unique technological platform dedicated to the development of plant chemistry products and processes designed to valorise the entire plant. Operational since autumn 2015, it includes several thematic labs including a catalytic chemistry lab operated under the aegis of the partnership. The processes developed are guided by the principle of sustainable development, using a renewable raw material that is both promising and competitive: oilseed biomass.
Drawing on its expertise and experience, De Dietrich® has developed solutions and equipment aiming on the one hand to transform plant-based material and on the other hand to optimize the energy consumption of this type of material.
