(Washington, D.C. 30 June 2010)-In a presentation today to BIO's World Congress on Industrial Biotechnology, Mr. Bruce W. Ferguson, President of Edenspace Systems Corporation, announced the introduction of a new liquid additive, Product 2010B^tm. The new product can increase sugar yields from biomass while reducing other processing costs by as much 10%, thereby reducing the overall cost of cellulosic biofuels and other bioproducts.

Composed of natural compounds identified by Edenspace researchers, the new 2010B^tm additive is introduced during the saccharification step following biomass pretreatment. Baselined for use following dilute acid pretreatment of cellulosic biomass, the 2010B^tm additive is also effective with a variety of other pretreatment methods. The additive supplements commercial enzyme blends used with existing varieties of sorghum, switchgrass, corn stover, corn cob, corn fiber, and poplar. The product also works with new genetically-engineered varieties of these crops, and is being tested on other crops. Contracts with commercial manufacturers are anticipated to provide the product in ton quantities by early next year. Samples are now available to biorefinery operators and process developers for testing.

Edenspace, headquartered in northeastern Kansas, is a commercial leader in developing plant-based systems for production of biofuels and bioproducts from non-food agricultural residues and dedicated energy crops. The company has entered into research and development agreements with the U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE"), the U.S. Department of Agriculture, DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Syngenta Ventures, universities and other corporations.
