Scientific diagram showing methane converting to methanol, then to bulk chemicals, fine chemicals, and bio-based polymers.

A clean, minimalist scientific schematic illustrating synthetic methanotrophy. On the left, a simple methane (CH₄) molecule labeled “Methane (C1 feedstock)”. Methane is converted via a generic enzyme, shown as an abstract enzyme icon, into methanol. Methanol is placed at the center as a highlighted hub and labeled “Methanol – C1 platform intermediate”. From methanol, three arrows branch out to three abstract product categories: “Bulk chemicals”, “Fine chemicals”, and “Bio-based polymers”, each represented by simple, non-specific icons. Flat vector style, white background, limited color palette (blue, green, gray), no people, no laboratory photos, no realistic machinery. Designed as a conceptual graphic for a scientific paper and LinkedIn post. See more
