About Us: About QTEROS
Qteros has a clear corporate focus: to accelerate the global commercialization of renewable biofuels by enabling the large-scale production of cellulosic ethanol at the lowest possible cost.
First-generation ethanol is currently the only fuel alternative that is fully integrated into the existing energy infrastructure in the U.S. and abroad. At Qteros, we believe that our unique technology platform has the ability to dramatically accelerate large-scale commercial production of second-generation ethanol, thereby addressing existing concerns and deficiencies related to first-generation ethanol.
Our vision is rapidly becoming a commercial reality with a unique and proprietary technology platform that dramatically simplifies the process of converting non-food biomass (commonly referred to as cellulosic or lignocellulosic biomass) into ethanol. Together with our world-class strategic partners, Qteros is focused on integrating all components of the industry's complex value chain to achieve efficient, profitable and commercial-scale production of cellulosic ethanol.
For fuel producers and refiners around the world, Qteros represents a powerful catalyst to drive the commercial viability of cellulosic ethanol. We combine our advanced microbiology with an expertise in process engineering to deliver a unique, highly-efficient, and low-cost Consolidated Bioprocessing (CBP) platform to existing and prospective producers of commercial-scale cellulosic ethanol.
Beyond ethanol, Qteros is actively investigating the use of our CBP platform for the low-cost, biomass-derived production of other industrial and specialty biochemicals that can serve as environmentally-sound, low-cost intermediates for large-scale industrial products. We are committed to collaborating with worldwide industry leaders and policy makers to drive the global adoption of our next-generation technologies.
At Qteros, we're serious about energy innovation. We're working hard to fuel a better future.
