Our Fermentation Pilot Plant has been designed to allow the transition of production from laboratory scale to industrial scale.

We make available to our clients the material means and the experience of our experts, in order to help them to transfer the achievements obtained in laboratory work to an industrial level.

In most industrial fermentations, scaling up from innovations previously achieved in the laboratory is an important step, requiring pilot-scale trials.

In this way, the necessary data are obtained to extrapolate the fermentation and reach a large scale with the confidence that they will work correctly.

Our team will work to solve the key problems of optimization and control of the fermentation process, in order to obtain a high yield and a high substrate conversion rate. For this purpose, the pilot plant also has the support of the analytical laboratory and quality control team.

Our facilities allow scale-up for:

• different processes, raw materials, etc.
• Flexible processes
• being able to meet different objectives (technology transfer, demonstration, etc.)
• at different scales.

We have the following fermentation scales:

• Laboratory up to 50 L
• Pilot plant: 100L, 500L, 1000L and 5000L
