The demand for green and sustainable products are increasing due to enhanced consumer awareness and greater affordability, especially in the personal care product segment. This drives the development of more renewable/ bio surfactants, with investors evaluating commercial scale projects.
CMT's 3rd South America Surfactants HPC Markets, coming to Sao Paulo, Brazil on 2-3 December, 2013, analyses the nuances of renewable raw materials for the surfactants industry and how they will shape the future of the industry through these specially tailored discussions on:
Demand for oleochemicals has been strong due to the growing demand for natural ingredients. Camen Lei, Research Analyst from LMCInternational will provide strategic insights into the industry's short-to-medium term future outlook, feedstock economics & market drivers and also the key oleochemicals locations to calculate the logistical costs both to procure raw materials and to ship finished products to major consumer markets.
LAB has been a dominant raw material for the surfactants industry and has been often called the workhorse surfactants. Find out in this session by Alejandro Rivas, Commercial Director, Dersachem and Andres Cardozo, R&D, Dersa - Will MES (produced from palm and coconut derivatives) replace LAB? Both of them will highlight the demand/ supply trends, clear the myths and pinpoint the advantages of MES while also sharing their experience of installing a MES plant and developing laundry products based on MES.
In addition, microalgae is another renewable raw material for the surfactants industry. Solazyme Bunge is the pioneer in this field, as this year the company has successfully developed the technology for microalgae oil production, that can be used as a raw material for manufacturing personal-care products. CMT is proud to invite on board Luis Eduardo Ravaglia, Commercial Director of Solazyme Bunge as a speaker at this event. Seize this chance to hear from him on the key applications & economics of microalgae oil production and also the technology innovations.
A third renewable raw material is sugar based fatty alcohols and LS9 is a leader in this segment. Gary Juncosa, Executive Vice President - Chemicals, LS9 examines the prospects of green surfactants by using alternative feedstock, provides you a performance/ economics analysis as well as a project update/ estimated capacity expansion of sugar based fatty alcohols.
