What is bio isobutanol?

Bio isobutanol is a bio-based alcohol produced through fermentation or as a higher alcohol fraction recovered from fusel oil, a co-product of bio-ethanol distillation. It combines solvent properties with the energy density and blending characteristics needed in advanced fuel applications.

How is isobutanol made?

Isobutanol is produced through two primary methods: the chemical oxo process and biotechnological fermentation.

In the oxo process, propylene is hydroformylated to aldehydes and then hydrogenated to alcohols. Alternatively, sustainable bio-based isobutanol is created by fermenting plant-derived sugars or agricultural waste using specialised micro-organisms.

Nedstar is your reliable partner for sustainable, bio-based isobutanol, supporting your low-carbon and circular-economy strategy.
