Our purpose-built pipeline is the infrastructure layer for rapid deployment of food waste upcycling systems at scale. From initial characterization to system implementation, our computational pipeline, purpose-designed processing units and engineered strains unlock feasibility.
Identify and evaluate high-value outputs without wet lab work. Predict sidestream composition and determine candidate outputs through ML-based composition prediction, enzyme-substrate matching and yield prediction.
Predict composition and rapidly analyze feasibility before deploying resources. Understand both technical and commercial feasibility with automated preliminary system design, TEA and LCA.
Design and build systems in a visual workbench built on an academically-validated simulation platform. Model upstream, fermentation and downstream processing operations with operational parameters. Simulate process scale-up with experimentally-grounded models.
Perform automated technoeconomic analysis with built-in uncertainty modeling and comprehensive empirical grounding. Assess economics under uncertainty with market and process-side price modeling with market grounding.
Simulate and analyze environmental impacts including global warming potential, resource consumption and toxicity. Predict wastewater and discharge midpoint metrics and negative carbon credits from avoided emissions.
Develop regulatory reports, prepare FDA GRAS notifications and track compliance. Research and assemble regulatory filings and track compliance against regulations and voluntary certification schemes.
Monitor and control deployed systems remotely, with alerts for key process parameters and system interruptions. View reports of system operations with realtime production data.

Use the platform for your R&D
Leverage our pipeline for your academic research or commercial R&D.
Our discovery engine matches sidestream chemistry to candidate fungal strains, predicts yield, and runs technoeconomic analysis in hours — not months. Built on a proprietary corpus of genomic datasets and fermentation data.
Modular biorefineries deployed on-site in food processing facilities, built for the challenges of sidestream feedstocks. Autonomous process control, proprietary reactor designs, soft sensing and remote diagnostics ensure consistent uptime and minimal overhead.
Rapid biomass reduction and stabilization allows high-throughput processing for seasonal sidestreams. Flexible upstream processing allows customization for diverse products from solid hemicellulosic to viscous liquids.
Eliminate hauling and logistics costs, utilize perishable product and reduce reliance on external vendors through on-site processing. Our units are designed to integrate into existing process operations with minimal disruption and operator overhead.
Integrated units handle processing from pretreatment to final purification in a single unit, consolidating fragmented processes into a seamless, integrated system.
Modular design enables configuration of the core fermentation process to diverse sidestreams through variable upstream and downstream operations.
