For companies who are looking to valorize their by-product streams, BPF offers first-rate facilities and a broad experience in processing various biomass sources. Unlike universities, research technology organisations and food research companies, BPF operates in an IP protected industrial setting to validate your company’s business case and to develop the process at pilot scale.

For companies who are looking for a partner with a proven track record in scaling fermentation and DSP processes to help them achieve high-quality commercial production, BPF offers both extensive lab and pilot scale capabilities/facilities and experience. Also in an FSSC 22000 certified food grade environment if required. Unlike universities, research companies and other scale-up service providers, the BPF team offers true industrial thinking on a smaller scale.

For companies who are looking to validate and transfer their process to demo scale and need in example a certain level of pre-marketing and registered production, BPF offers extensive pre-treatment, fermentation and DSP experience. BPF operates in an IP protected industrial setting to validate your company’s business case and to develop the integrated process at demo scale (in shift operation).

UNLOCK THE POTENTIAL OF YOUR FEEDSTOCK

The BPF bench scale and pilot scale pretreatment units allow for the breakdown of different types of biomass, including agricultural, forest or food waste residue into fermentable sugars. Hydrolysis vessels enable enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulosic fractions from pretreatment.

Convert feedstock to your desired product

At the BPF fermentation pilot modules sugars are converted into bio-based intermediates using fermentation processes. We can take all kind of micro-organisms like bacterial, fungal, yeast, GMO and non-GMO, to obtain the desired product.

purification tO the required product QUALITY

At the downstream processing module products are purified for applications such as biofuels, biochemicals, food ingredients and pharmaceuticals. On downstream processing BPF is really well equipped to take many processes, for example homogenisation, centrifugation, filtration, extraction and drying.

Kickstart the decision making to commercial scale

The BPF services cover the whole industrial biotechnology process chain, enabling clients from different market segments to test how production processes respond to both scale-up and scale-down including demo-mode operation. Open access and each client’s IP confidentiality/protection are a given at BPF.

BPF HAS A DEDICATED FOOD-AREA TO ENSURE THAT FOOD Ingredients ARE made according food regulations.

Processes and products requiring a food-grade quality are prepared in a dedicated fermentation and downstream processing area.

BPF shall ensure that the pretreatment, fermentation and purification processes and products will be qualitatively and quantitatively optimal.

To realize our growth ambition and continue the successes of our company we are looking for flexible, experienced, hands-on and pro-active colleagues (f/m).
