**** chemicals chemicals this technology from los alamos national laboratory, 3 hp upgrading platform, provides a novel, bio based pathway to produce methyl methacrylate mma by converting renewably producible 3 hydroxypropionic acid 3 hp into a constituent substrate for normally petroleum derived mma. by operating directly on fermentation derived 3 hp, the process reduces the need for costly puri cation steps and improves overall production e ciency. it also introduces a novel chemical intermediate formed during the reaction, o ering additional di erentiation. for manufacturers, this approach enables a more sustainable and potentially lower cost route to a high demand chemical used in plastics, coatings, adhesives and medical materials without requiring changes to existing products or end use applications. overview: this invention is a chemical process for upgrading 3 hydroxypropionic acid 3 hp into methyl methacrylate mma using an integrated reactive extraction approach. in this system, 3 hp produced through
