START WITH THE APPLICATION

Start with the material.
Define the outcome.

Food side stream, composition, storage history, variability, target recovered fraction and intended product use.

01 / CARBOHYDRATE FRACTIONS

Find the accessible fraction.

Discuss starch or cell-wall treatment around a defined carbohydrate recovery objective.

Sugar profile · recovery · solids

02 / PROTEIN RECOVERY

Follow the protein.

Review controlled protein treatment and separation for a specified recovered fraction.

Protein content · hydrolysis · quality

Discuss this application →
03 / PROCESS HANDLING

Make the material workable.

Screen viscosity or solids-handling changes as part of the overall recovery process.

A USEFUL FIRST STEP

Start with a brief.
Build the evidence.

Free samples are available for qualified commercial trials after an application review. Sample selection, quantity, delivery and the trial method are agreed before dispatch.

Plan the next step ↗
  1. Describe your application.

    Food side stream, composition, storage history, variability, target recovered fraction and intended product use.

  2. Agree the trial conditions.

    Include the material, scale, pH, temperature, contact time and any existing process chemicals.

  3. Define a useful result.

    Choose the comparison, controls and measurements that will guide your next decision.

BEFORE YOU START

The details
that matter.

Does this site cover energy recovery?

The focus here is ingredient and fraction recovery. Biogas or bioethanol routes should be evaluated as separate process objectives.

Can any recovered fraction be sold as food?

Enzyme treatment alone does not establish suitability. Define the feedstock and intended use requirements before development.

Do you offer free samples for development?

Qualified commercial trials may receive ingredient samples; custom screening and development are quoted to scope.

Do you offer bulk supply and tailored blends?

Send your application, required quantity, specifications and delivery destination. We will review a suitable supply or development route and provide a quotation.
