Anaerobic Fermentation

    Anaerobic fermentation technology represents an advanced biomanufacturing approach that facilitates the efficient transformation of organic waste into valuable products. Our professional CDMO service provider expertise in fermentation extends from initial process design through to mass production to help you bypass traditional fermentation limitations and address major challenges.

    • Resource Waste and Cost Pressure: Traditional fermentation methods lead to high production expenses because they demonstrate low processing efficiency and inadequate raw material usage.
    • Environmental Burden: The incorrect management of organic waste leads to pollution issues and forces companies to incur higher environmental compliance expenses.
    • Technical Complexity: Maintaining anaerobic conditions proves difficult to manage and without specialized technical support stable production becomes elusive.
    • Low Product Value: Traditional fermentation processes generally produce only basic products that do not meet the market requirements for high-end bioproducts.

    Our approach uses advanced anaerobic fermentation technologies alongside tailored process optimization to enable resourceful waste utilization which cuts production expenses and raises product competitiveness while supporting environmental and sustainability objectives.

    Anaerobic Fermentation Services

    Process Development and Optimization

    Strain Screening and Improvement: Developing highly efficient anaerobic strains through screening from different environments suited for particular substrates or modifying current strains genetically to improve fermentation results and product output.

    Fermentation Condition Optimization: Improving fermentation efficiency and product quality requires precise control and optimization of parameters including temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, substrate concentration, inoculum size, and stirring speed.

    Process Flow Design: We design anaerobic fermentation processes that meet customer needs while taking substrate characteristics into account through pretreatment and post-treatment stages to maintain efficient operations throughout fermentation.

    Fermentation Production

    Lab-Scale Production: Researchers perform small-scale anaerobic fermentation tests in the lab to verify process stability and feasibility while generating data to support pilot-scale and industrial production expansion.

    Pilot-Scale Expansion: The lab process needs to be scaled up to the pilot scale while optimizing process parameters and solving potential scale-up issues to establish the foundation for commercial production.

    Large-Scale Production: Implementing large-scale anaerobic fermentation in facilities compliant with GMP standards achieves product quality and yield consistency which enables commercialization.

    Quality Control and Analysis

    Product Analysis: Fermentation products undergo qualitative and quantitative analysis using advanced techniques including gas chromatography (GC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and mass spectrometry (MS) to verify their purity and quality standards.

    Process Monitoring: The real-time observation of fermentation parameters including temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen along with gas production assists in detecting problems immediately and maintaining consistent process control.

    Quality Standards Establishment: A strict quality control system and standards must be developed according to customer needs and industry standards to make sure every production batch achieves quality goals.
