This document discusses DSM's yeast technologies for ethanol production. It introduces several DSM sales and technical representatives. DSM offers two yeast products, eBOOST and eBOOST GT, which can increase ethanol yields by 3% on average compared to standard yeast. These yeasts also reduce glycerol production by up to 68% and decrease levels of contaminants like acetaldehyde. Commercial trial data shows higher ethanol levels and yields from eBOOST yeast. Charts are presented comparing eBOOST GT to a competitor's yeast showing eBOOST GT's higher sugar consumption and ethanol tolerance.

Why Should You Consider DSM BP&S
We are the newcomer to the USA Ethanol Industry
So we have to innovate and work harder to earn and keep your business!
DSM DOES NOT charge Technology or Ferm Fees All In $/kg Pricing!
DSM Yeast produces a Cleaner Ethanol!
DSM Yeast delivers an average of 3% more ethanol compared to non GMO industry
standard with the same or lower amounts of acetaldehyde & acetal & other fusels
Glycerol reduction (up to 68%)
Lower energy costs by increasing drying and evaporator efficiency
Improves whole stillage separation efficiency & corn oil recovery
We believe our nitrogen uptake pathway converts more carbon to useful amino acids
& polypeptides thereby improving the quality of your DDGS
We offer Monthly Lab Analysis, Quarterly Business Reviews & Regular Operator
Training. We are MORE than a delivery & an invoice!

DSM Yeast has very good acid tolerances showing up to 0.5% LA + 0.2% AA with
negligible inhibition to finish
DSM Yeast DO NOT contribute to the production of Acetic or Lactic acids
eBoostTM GT offers high GA reductions (~50%) compared to traditional yeasts,
and further increases shown over other GA expressing yeasts
A recent mini-ferm trial showed additional 25% GA reduction
eBOOST & eBOOST GT are produced in the U.S. / All regulatory approvals in
place (MCAN*, GRAS)
At this time we offer only Active Dry Yeast (ADY)

Lets focus on your interest
What is most important to you when choosing a yeast supplier?
What are your expectations from a yeast supplier?
What do you wish a yeast supplier would offer or innovate?
Other thoughts/questions/coaching for us?
Are you making or considering making hand sanitizer?
Do you have an ability to test our yeast in a mini ferm or lab trial?
If so, do you place much value is such tests?
Is there an appetite now to trial one or both of our yeast?
Have you had challenges optimizing your plant to a new yeast in the past?
If so, what expectations do you have for DSM in a potential trial or switch?
We are offering very low cost trials at this time!
