Best Available Carbon
As part of an Innovate UK-funded project on sustainable carbon for the chemical industry, FREY and NNFCC The Bioeconomy Consultants have collaborated to produce a "A perspective on best available carbon (BAC) as feedstock for the chemical industry".
The petrochemical industry is a significant global consumer of carbon and a notable producer of carbon emissions contributing to climate change. This perspective explores the potential for the industry to make a progressive move towards more sustainable carbon choices through the use of BAC.

Growing the UK Industrial Biotechnology Base
This document, 'Growing the UK Industrial Technology Base: A National Industrial Biotechnology Strategy to 2030', takes the evidence-based recommendations of the 'Developing a Strategy for Industrial Biotechnology and Bioenergy in the UK' report and sets out a vision of the UK IB community that harnesses world-class UK science and engineering to enable IB to become a mainstream part of UK industry. The goal is to maximise the value of existing assets and capabilities to ensure that the UK becomes a world leader in IB and that IB approaches are widely adopted by wealth creating industries.

UK CHEM 2050: Sustainable Carbon Ambition for the UK
Chemicals Industry
The chemicals industry is inherently carbon and energy intensive, and unlike other industries, uses fossil resources as both a fuel and as a feedstock – contributing to both fossil-derived production emissions plus release of embodied fossil carbon at end of life. FREY worked in partnership with senior leaders from industry and academia to create a Sustainable Carbon Ambition for the UK Chemicals Industry. Download your copy here.
