Cemvita is at the forefront of carbon waste conversion, transforming “wastes” and CO₂ into valuable products through bioengineered microbes thus paving the way for a circular carbon economy.

Our scalable, carbon-to-value solutions are designed to meet the needs of industries such as energy and biofuels, home and personal care, and health and nutrition, driving sustainable cost-effective production while minimizing environmental impact.

With patent-pending bioprocess optimization that significantly reduces land and water footprints to produce highly efficient microbes capable of accumulating up to 80% oils in the biomass, our scalable technology is built for maximum efficiency with minimal resource use.

Unmatched efficiency and carbon utilization across key industries...

Our carbon-negative technology enables industries to convert emissions into resources, seamlessly integrating CO₂ utilization into existing processes to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Our expertise in biochemical and microbial engineering helps sectors like energy, biofuels, and personal care manufacturing of carbon-neutral materials that meet essential environmental goals.

By omitting chemicals in the process, our solutions are cleaner, safer, cost-effective and more sustainable.

Turning emissions into resources with minimal environmental impact...

We specialize in recycling CO₂ into renewable chemicals, oils and fuels feedstock. From bioenergy with carbon capture to advanced carbon-negative solutions, our technologies offer a cost-effective path to decarbonization for heavy industries. By reducing emissions and creating value from waste carbon, we’re enabling industries to become more sustainable while reducing costs.

Our process requires 99.9% less land than traditional vegetable oil production—a single Cemvita plant can save the equivalent of 24,500 acres of soybean farmland. Additionally, our process slashes water consumption by 99% compared to seed oils, making it highly resource efficient.

What sets us apart...

Cemvita is a leader in sustainable industrial biotechnology. Our engineered microbes allow us to produce essential oil, and chemicals with minimal environmental impact. Our innovative approach to decarbonizing aviation fuels by nearly 78.9%, positions us as a trusted partner in industrial decarbonization, sustainable fuel feedstock production, and emissions reduction.

Uninterrupted Production

Our technology offers continuous, year-round production of sustainable oils and other co-products supporting consistent supply chains.

Reduced Land Footprint

Our plant-based approach requires 99.9% less land compared to traditional crop farming, dramatically decreasing the environmental footprint while not competing with food needed for the growing human population.

Diverse Oil Profiles

We provide a range of oil profiles for every use case, supported by our comprehensive research and development programs.

Join Cemvita in redefining sustainability through innovative climate tech solutions. Together, we can drive the transition to low-carbon manufacturing, CO₂ utilization, and renewable energy alternatives, creating a future that’s both profitable and sustainable.
The Process

Cemvita represents one of our foundational principles - Code,Energy, and Mass, or CEM, is a key concept pioneered by our co-founder, Tara Karimi, that helps us implement nature’s energy systems into our technology.

By embracing new concepts in biotechnology, we are helping companies’ operations become more efficient and aligned with the natural world.  

1
Carbon waste collection - the process begins with capturing carbon from waste.
2
Microorganism engineering and selection - Patent-pending process uses 99% less water and land than farming for the equivalent volume of seed oils. Its continuous production provides supply chain stability against environmental volatility.
3
Biological conversion – Highly efficient microbes contain up to 80% fats by volume. Using Synthetic Biology, microbes can be optimized for desired characteristics. Precision fermentation is used for optimal oil productivity.
4
Oil extraction - the solvent free extraction process produces pure, high quality, lipids with versatile use cases. Cemvita's Sustainable Oil is a drop in alternative to vegetable oil in every application of its use.    
Our versatile approach goes beyond Biofuels.
