StyGreen,
manufacturing the greenest Lego Bricks!
StyGreen is bio-plastic produced out of recycled toilet paper.
Fossil fuels are depleting, and
CO2 levels
are rising:
The plastic production plays a
significant
role in this process.
Can we use
recycled toilet paper
to generate glucose?
Our
Integrated models
say;
we can!
Let’s
design
a yeast!
How would this look under a
computational microscope
?
Large amounts of glucose, what can we do with it?
Give our yeast
tools
to create styrene, by
knocking out
unnecessary pathways.
Scale
up to save the world!
Use
StyGreen
to build the greenest Lego Bricks!
