5 Approaching «the last oil» less reserves and inreasing demand Increasing population; 9 bill by 1050 and increasing consumption Climate changes; food security and water supply under pressure 5

6 The 21. century industrial revolution Petroleum economy Bioeconomy Bioeconomy Biomass (microalgae) 200 mill years Fossil carbon (oil/gas) Energy 90% Chemicals 10% 6

7 The century of life sciences Biotechnology will become essential for most industry sectors % 36% 25% 39% 4% 7% 2% Agriculture Industry Healthcare Other 7

8 The knowlede-based bioeconomy "The bioeconomy can be thought of as a world where biotechnology contributes to a significant share of economic output. A bioeconomy involves three elements: Biotechnology, renewable biomass and integration across disiplines." Feedstock suppliers Technology providers Product developing industries 8

9 Integrated sectors green products Fisheries Aquaculture Plankton/Krill Micro algae Seaweeds Wood Straw/bagasse Plant oils Animal waste Municipal waste 1) Small CO 2 footprint 2) Clean conversion processes 3) High value creation 4) Rural workplaces Biocatalysis Food/feed ingredients Speciality chemicals Cosmetics Biopharmaceuticals Bioplastics & polymers Pulp & paper Lubricants Textiles Bulk chemicals Bioenergy 9

10 Buzz-words for the years to come BIOREFINING: BIOCATALYSIS: + Use of renewable biomass as feedstock for sustainable manufacturing of chemicals, materials or fuel......irrespective of process technology. Use of enzymes or microorganisms for the production of chemicals, medicines, materials/polymers or fuel. May also include fermentation related to food and feed. 10

11 The challenge and the opportunity "What ever happens in this century, we will have to learn to live without fossil hydrocarbons.«2050: 3000 mill tonns Prof. David Goldstein, CalTech: Out of Gas: The End of the Age of Oil, 2004 = 25% of current oil production ~ 1-5 trillion 2010: 300 mill tonns total plastics market 2010: 1 mill tonn bioplastics 11

12 A market trend towards sustainability October 11, 2011: Toyota plans to replace a total of 20% of oil-based plastics across the range by 2015, equal to tons. December 15, 2011: Coca-Cola has entered into 3 SME partnerships in order to reach their target of 100% biobottles, equal to several million tons of PET. 12

13 The stone age did not end due to lack of stone! likewise... The petroleum age should not end due to lack of petroleum, either! 13
