Lygos’ novel manufacturing technology decreases CO 2 emissions, eliminates toxic inputs and could replace the existing petroleum production process for malonic acid at lower cost and less energy. The petrochemical process to produce malonic acid requires chloroacetic acid and sodium cyanide, and is both costly and environmentally hazardous.
