Houston, USA – Sustainability reshaped conversations at the ICIS World Petrochemical Conference, where peptide manufacturers presented:
♻ Bio-based protecting groups replacing traditional toxic reagents
♻ Enzymatic synthesis cutting energy use by 50% vs conventional methods
♻ Closed-loop purification systems recovering 95% of solvents
"Environmental factors now drive 60% of peptide purchasing decisions," stated a McKinsey analyst during the Sustainable Biomaterials Summit side event. The conference also debuted a Peptide CO2 Footprint Calculator, helping buyers compare suppliers' ecological impacts.
