Enzymatic whole stillage fractionation: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Protein recovery from complex fermentation slurries is often hindered by low solubility and membrane binding. These methods utilize specific ionic interactions to stabilize and isolate target proteins from plant-based waste streams.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Enzymatic whole stillage fractionation?

Low byproduct recovery efficiency

(14)evidences

Inefficient separation of valuable proteins from complex fermentation mixtures leads to significant yield loss. Improving recovery rates reduces waste and enhances the economic viability of downstream processing.

Low microbial metabolic yield

(2)evidences

Inefficient conversion rates of raw substrates into specialized organic acids like itaconic acid. Improving metabolic throughput increases the economic viability of bio-based chemical production.
