"Founded by F.J. Settin in 1972, Barker Industries began as a specialty chemical manufacturer of pharmaceutical grade compounds used primarily as mineral supplements. The products offered included a wide variety of alkaline earth and transition metal gluconates, citrates and tartrates. Reagent chemicals were also produced on a limited basis. F.J. Settin began his early studies at The University of Rome, Italy in medicine. After World War II, he completed his studies in chemistry at Seton Hall University. In 1956, he opened Fielding Chemical Corp. in Jersey City, NJ producing very high purity rare earth and transition metal chemicals. Barker Industries was created from these early bench top beginnings to a bulk manufacturing company meeting the demands for high quality, fine inorganic chemicals. Barker Industries is currently owned and operated by Marc F. Settin, Ph.D. and Robert F. Settin. Both brothers graduated from The Citadel with degrees in chemistry. Dr. Settin graduated with his Ph.D. in 1987 from Clemson University specializing in the field of bioinorganic chemistry. Robert F. Settin graduated from Queens College in 1995 with a Masters degree in Business Administration. Today, Barker Industries manufactures over 200, high purity inorganic chemicals used primarily in the electronic, catalyst, research, and pharmaceutical industries. The main production facility located in Charlotte, North Carolina currently produces in excess of 500,000 lbs. of chemical products annually. The plant has several stainless steel, hastalloy, and glass reactors ranging in size from 150-1400 gallons. The operation also has complete drying and milling capabilities including bulk sieving. Barker Industries follows good manufacturing practice guidelines producing only the highest quality inorganic compounds that are thoroughly tested with the most advanced techniques including MS-ICP, Fast Sequential AA, FT-IR and Diode Array Spectrometry."

Gevo is commercializing the next generation of renewable gasoline, jet fuel and diesel fuel with the potential to achieve zero carbon emissions, addressing the market need of reducing greenhouse gas emissions with sustainable alternatives. Gevo uses low-carbon renewable resource-based carbohydrates as raw materials, and is in an advanced state of developing renewable electricity and renewable natural gas for use in production processes, resulting in low-carbon fuels with substantially reduced carbon intensity (the level of greenhouse gas emissions compared to standard petroleum fossil-based fuels across their lifecycle). Gevo’s products perform as well or better than traditional fossil-based fuels in infrastructure and engines, but with substantially reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to addressing the problems of fuels, Gevo’s technology also enables certain plastics, such as polyester, to be made with more sustainable ingredients. Gevo’s ability to penetrate the growing low-carbon fuels market depends on the price of oil and the value of abating carbon emissions that would otherwise increase greenhouse gas emissions. Gevo believes that its proven, patented technology enabling the use of a variety of low-carbon sustainable feedstocks to produce price-competitive low carbon products such as gasoline components, jet fuel, and diesel fuel yields the potential to generate project and corporate returns that justify the build-out of a multi-billion dollar business.

"SIDRA Wasserchemie GmbH, founded in 1981 and based in Ibbenbüren, is the practical answer to specific questions about environmental protection and especially to the higher requirements in the area of ​​water pollution control. SIDRA Wasserchemie Bitterfeld GmbH was founded in 1991. The commissioning of the new production facility there in 1992 ensured the supply of the new federal states with SIDRA products. The previously independent companies SIDRA Wasserchemie GmbH in Ibbenbüren and SIDRA Wasserchemie Bitterfeld GmbH were combined in 2018 to form SIDRA Wasserchemie GmbH based in Ibbenbüren. Production will continue at both locations. SIDRA produces centrally in Ibbenbüren, a medium-sized town on the edge of the Osnabrück motorway junction. This is where the traffic routes that connect the north with the south and the east with the west of the Federal Republic of Germany meet. That means fast traffic routes. Added to this are the short delivery times, which are a matter of course for SIDRA. The traditional chemical site Bitterfeld in Saxony-Anhalt also guarantees a cost-effective, comprehensive customer supply thanks to its central location. This is a powerful argument for SIDRA."
