AI-Engineered Solutions for Cleaner Recycled Fiber, Lower Chemical Use & Higher Mill Efficiency
AI-Engineered Enzymes for Paper Deinking
Recovered paper is a critical raw material for modern mills — but efficient recycling depends on effective removal of inks, coatings, stickies, and contaminants.
Paper recyclers and mills face major challenges:
- Incomplete ink removal
- Fiber damage from harsh chemicals
- High water and energy consumption
- Brightness limitations
- Yield loss and lower-value recycled pulp
Neoncorte Bio develops AI-engineered enzymes designed to improve deinking performance and increase recycled fiber value.

Publications
Scientific Publication of Neoncorte Bio Team
- Modification of natural enzymes to introduce new properties and enhance existing ones is a central challenge in bioengineering. This study is focused on the development of Taq polymerase mutants that show enhanced reverse transcriptase (RTase) activity while retaining other desirable properties such as fidelity, 5′-3′ exonuclease activity, effective deoxyuracil incorporation, and tolerance to locked nucleic acid (LNA)-containing substrates.
- The transcriptomic data are being frequently used in the research of biomarker genes of different diseases and biological states. The most common tasks there are the data harmonization and treatment outcome prediction. Both of them can be addressed via the style transfer approach. Either technical factors or any biological details about the samples which we would like to control (gender, biological state, treatment, etc.) can be used as style components.
