This project will evaluate the operational performance of aquatic-based biopesticides to support innovation across the bioindustrial manufacturing network. This will address a persistent challenge in the bioeconomy: the lack of reliable, product-specific Key Performance Indicator (KPI) data needed to assess and improve efficiency in bio-based product development.

Bluestem Biosciences and the National Corn-to-Ethanol Research Center (NCERC) worked to boost the bioeconomy of the Midwest by identifying promising commercial opportunities for anaerobic fermentation technology. Through this project, researchers built BlueSTEAM, an open-source code base that simplifies the techno-economic analysis for anaerobic biomanufacturing processes.
