BioPulping International, Inc. is a technology and consulting company located in Madison, Wisconsin. Established in 1996 and organized under the laws of the State of Wisconsin, we specialize in developing and commercializing energy saving technologies.  We are currently developing a commercial application for oxalic acid, biopulping, and SPORL technologies.  BPI also provides consulting services to the pulp and paper industry nationwide.  BPI has spent nearly $5 million in research, development, and deployment of energy technologies.  Angel investors and federal agencies, such as the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Department of Agriculture have provided the funding.  BPI's model is to work with the best universities, federal institutions, and industries in the United States and use their employees and expertise through Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADA's).  BPI provides funding to these research institutions through these CRADA's, which keeps the number of employees at BPI somewhere between 2-5.  BPI also provides consulting services to CleanTech Partners (CTP).  CTP is a part of the Wisconsin Focus on Energy Program, which was established to accelerate the deployment of energy saving and renewable technologies by making investments.  BPI has been providing consulting services to CTP since its inception in 2003.  BPI is also expanding its consulting services to other industries, including the growing IT industry and building capacity.
