Global Status

Nowadays, many useful products have been commercialized and are being used globally. In Table 3.1, the volume of the most important bio-based fermentation products and their economic market size is presented. It is clear that the pharmaceutical sector is contributing most to the economics, with a relatively small demand for renewable feedstock. Pharmaceutical products are predominantly produced by microorganisms and mammalian cells because the molecules are large and complex, and there are no chemical synthesis alternatives for production. 

Intermediate in volume and economics are the food ingredients, such as enzymes, acids for preservation, amino acids, and vitamins. These have been marketed for reasons of added nutritional value, longer preservation, need for convenience foods, and better taste. Typically these are specialty products with a bigger market volume, but still limited need for renewable feedstock. 

During the past years, a steady growth has been observed in all product segments. The growth is driven by concerns of climate change and fossil feedstock
