DuPont Biotechnology Vice President Testifies Before U.S. House Science and Technology Committee

Washington (Vocus) January 27, 2010 -- DuPont Applied BioSciences Vice President of Technology John Pierce told members of the U.S. House of Representatives Science and Technology Committee that the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) “serves a valuable role by focusing efforts on the critical energy sector as a powerful springboard for promising pre-market concepts.”

“DuPont and its partners have been conducting research programs to develop new clean energy technologies that are now nearing commercialization including the company’s two advanced biofuels programs,” Pierce said. “For example, the pre-commercial demonstration facility for the company’s cellulosic ethanol joint venture, DuPont Danisco Cellulosic Ethanol (DDCE), which is based on technology that has derived great benefit from DOE partnerships, has recently started production while the demonstration facility for the company’s biobutanol joint venture, Butamax™ Advanced Biofuels is expected to start up this year.”

DuPont and Bio Architecture Lab recently were awarded a $9 million matching grant
