Abstract: Biochemistry usually uses biomass as raw material or adopts a relatively mild biological fermentation process. With typical green characteristics, it has become one of the key areas in the strategic plans made by international energy and chemical companies under the“ net zero carbon” goal. BASF, DuPont, TotalEnergy and ExxonMobil, which involved themselves into biochemical business earlier, attached great importance to technological innovation and focused efforts on their respective advantageous business areas.BASF released the biomass balance plan and stressed biological substitution of the key intermediates, making use of industrial biological technology in advance. Total Energy selected biofuels as a breakthrough point, made a unified plan for both upstream and downstream sectors and continually enhanced the product advantages. DuPont was sensitive to market opportunities and continually committed to the differentiated competition advantages. Sticking to the main business of oil products, ExxonMobil timely adjusted the key area of biofuels distribution and kept itself as a technological leader in this area. Based on their own business orientation, the Chinese enterprises can learn from the development models and experience of the major companies, to accelerate the transition from technological innovation to industrial application.
