[…] intense development. In contrast to the polyethylene scenario, plentiful natural gas may actually accelerate activity in the bio‐aromatics area since natural gas does not contain aromatics. (5) The last few years have seen a growing number of governments’ worldwide developing strategies and policy frameworks to support the development of a sustainable and competitive bioeconomy. Several of these policies offer generic support for the further development of biochemicals, biomaterials and bioplastics, promoting bio‐based products or the bio economy in general. Most of them focus on research and innovation. Many countries have implemented policies banning single use plastics bags. However, only a few countries have developed a specific set of policies targeting the development of bioplastics. (6) Pressure is increasing to replace food crops as feedstocks for bio plastics with agricultural or forestry biomass. Technology advancements are being made to cost effectively extract sugars from these waste products but as yet no commercial scale plant is operational. Some key players are emerging 5 as leaders in this area. Other key issues with biomass feedstocks, in addition to efficient extraction, are the logistics of supply, storage and accumulation of sufficient quantities for processing. All of the above trends are discussed in the body of this report. […]
