BIO PLASTIC

RBP – Renewable Bio-degradable Plastic 

Terra Laboratories has developed an innovative carbon-neutral and cost-effective Bio-Factory technology for the production of RBP.

Recent advances in synthetic biology provide the opportunity to develop super microorganisms capable of producing a variety of PHAs at low cost.

At Terra Laboratories, we modify the DNA of unique species of subterranean bacteria and archaea recovered from oil and gas reservoirs. Gene editing allows bacteria to rapidly grow to high cell densities and produce PHAs with diverse properties and high carbon source to PHA conversion efficiency.

Our micro-organisms consume hydrocarbon waste, low grade crude oil or CO2 to produce biodegradable plastics and valuable chemicals.

Goal:

Produce BioPlastic from HC waste, Oil, and CO2

Biologically convert the complex crude fractions, hydrocarbon (HC) waste and CO2 to high-value, carbon-neutral chemical products. PHAs are renewable and biodegradable plastics naturally generated by unique bacterial species as storage materials

How?

Production of chemicals using proprietary bio factories.

Bio-Refinery converts complex crude fractions,   to carbon-neutral high-value, chemical products: Mixed alkanes from low-value crude fractions > Fatty acids > Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), Acetyl – CoA > Ethanol, 2, 3 -Butanediol, Adipic acid. Infinite possibilities

DNA Sequencing

RBP produced by genetically improved bacterial species

High Precision Elemental Analysis allows to accurately identify facies and flow units using ratios of trace elements. Rock fingerprinting allows for determining reservoir continuity, which is very important for successful field development, wellbore placement, and accurate reservoir characterization

 

High-Resolution Full Genome DNA Sequencing

DNA sequencing allows for identifying unique Insitu microbial species not detectable by standard methods . High-Res full genome sequencing helps identifying species that matter.

Proprietary Bioinformatics Platform & Custom Reagents

This method allows for estimating Producible OOIP,  measuring Fluid Saturation of Mobile Oil, determining Sorbed Immobile Oil, breaking down

DNA Tracers 

Applicability: Oil & Gas, Mining, Geothermal, Environmental. Subsurface bacteria can be used as natural non-depleting tracers and biomarkers. Microbial species change with changes in temperature, mineralogy, oil, water, and gas saturation, fluid composition, and ore concentration. There are hundreds of identifiable microbial species Insitu, making them ideal biomarkers. Microbial DNAs are used as “fingerprints” or natural tracers for production allocation & reservoir continuity purposes, to identify active faults, validate commercial saturation of hydrocarbons, and ore concentration. 

DNA Tracers and Sweep Efficiency: This innovative method allows monitoring of wells throughout the life of the project without the need to pump additional chemical tracers. During secondary oil recovery (waterflooding), bacterial tracers provide information about reservoir sweep efficiency & communication between wells. The affordability of this method allows for continuous monitoring of wells at the pilot stage & throughout the project’s life field-wide.
