Solazyme

About Solazyme (adapted from Solazyme prospectus):
Solazyme's proprietary technology transforms a range of low-cost plant-based sugars into high-value oils. Their renewable products can replace or enhance oils derived from the world's three existing sources—petroleum, plants and animal fats. Solazyme tailors the composition of their oils to address specific customer requirements. Their oils can address the major markets served by conventional oils, which represented an opportunity of over $3.1 trillion in 2010. Initially, they are focused on commercializing their products into three target markets: (1) fuels and chemicals, (2) nutrition and (3) skin and personal care.
