ChiralVision is a life-science SME located in the Netherlands.

The company develops chemo-enzymatic processes for various markets including environmental, cosmetic, fine chemical and pharmaceutical industry. Also immobilization techniques are developed for enzymes to facilitate their separation and recycling. Immobilization of enzyme makes various processes economically viable by enabling recycling of the enzyme. Additionally the use of more extreme process conditions is possible for immobilized enzyme thereby increasing the technical feasibility of enzymatic processes.

The research performed at ChiralVision focuses on the application of enzymes in selective chemical transformations.

This comprises three major topics:
1) Enzymatic process development,
2) Enzyme immobilization and carrier development,
3) compounds made with enzymes.

In POLYMERS-5B ChiralVision will explore using natural and recycled building blocks to built carriers for enzymes and to make resins that can be used for water treatement and recovery of metals for e.g. mining.
